Depending on where this crisis goes, it’ll be interesting to see what effect it has.

America seems to have a lot of large vehicles that use a lot of fuel. The UK less so.

The tax will have played a part in this (how much?).

I hope we can get the kinks worked out. Even in many 'blue' states, we have created a situation where the road maintenance tax paid by EV owners is twice or more what the typical ICEV driver is paying. I sort of expected that in 'red' states, since punishing EV owners is a political priority, but we see that same crap in Oregon & Washington, for example.
