Dpoll 40: Who should pay for repairing the roads?
Dpoll 40: Who should pay for repairing the roads?
Driving a car is expensive.
I wish I could do without one and hope I can in a few years.
It is not only the yearly test that costs money but a car insurance is needed and I have to pay road tax.
In the Netherlands you pay road tax if you own a car. It does not matter where you drive it, how many kilometers/miles you drive or if you only need it an hour a month or 8 hours a day.
Road tax should be used for the roads but the biggest part is spent on something else. The amount you pay depends on how big/heavy your car is but also where you live. Not each Provence pays the same. Roads are not only used by cars. People walj,bicycle, use their electric- and motorbikes, tractor and horseson it.
Public transport in the country is not as good as in the cities or the west part of the country.
Frequently you need a car. The roads are bad where I live. This means big holes and driving in the dark. No investment in streetlights.
It somehow annoys me that the money we pay is never used to repair our roads. It damages cars and many accidents happen because people drive in the middle (the best part) to save their car and those on bikes do the same. If you drive at the right/left your car nearly falls apart and your kidneys hurt.
Why are the best roads always in the west, in big cities and the rest of the tax payers live in the middle ages?
I pay road tax too and the damaged road is not because I drive a big car or too much but it does giveme extra costs.
Is a normal road too much asked?
If I go abroad I need to pay road tax for the use of certain highways or tunnels.
Foreigners do not need to pay road tax if they visit the Netherlands.
The Dutch car owner pays for all roads, stoops, the foreigners passing by/visiting, the trucks, etc. pay nothing.
In the past plans were made to change our road tax system.
Which system is the best?
Everyone pays for certain roads / tunnels, car owners pay road tax, everyone pays tax for taking care of stoops, roads, bicycle roads, etc, you pay over the amount of kilometers you drive, for the weight of your vehicle or?
- Everyone
- No one
- Car owners only
- Pay for the kilometers you drive with your vehicle no matter what kind.
- The city / provence
- Those who use a certain road / tunnel
- Other,... (please share possibilities or how it works in your country)

This is about the roads. There are many with a 45 km car and they use the road too. Same with bicycles and motorbikes. We have roads for bikes only and stoops. Who pays for that? Only those who drive a car? That doesn't make sense.
Thank you for voting.
Это про дороги. Многие с 45-километровым автомобилем, и они тоже используют дорогу. То же самое с велосипедами и мотоциклами. У нас есть дороги только для велосипедов и сутулости. Кто за это платит? Только те, кто водит машину? Это не имеет смысла.
Спасибо за ваш голос.

«Alleen eigenaren van machines», die de dood dragen. Om te bestuurders om willen te schakelen naar veilige transportmodi
Sorry, the translation does not make sense.
You mean people who drive too fast and cause accidents?
nee)
Het is grappig dat automatische vertaling naar het Russisch ook 1/3 van de betekenis verliest. Ik compileer verschillende vertalingen om ze nauwkeuriger te formuleren, maar robots zijn nog niet van de grond gekomen.
Ik zeg dat bij een autobotsing een fietser met zijn leven betaalt.
Daarom moeten degenen die de dreiging dragen voor de wegen betalen
@pereu4ivatel Okay the answer is clear.
Yesterday I noticed a message from a phone provider was translated well and I wonder why that worked fine. 🤔 At least it is better as nothing. I learned it depends on the sentence and words you use. The shorter a sentence the better the translation.
Vergelijk de machinevertaling van alles wat in dit onderwerp is gepubliceerd, ik denk dat er een iets andere reeks woorden zal zijn:
Забавно, что автоматический перевод на русский тоже теряет 1/3 смысла. Я делаю компиляцию нескольких переводов, чтоб точнее сформулировать, но роботы пока не взлетают.
Я говорю, что при столкновении с автомобилем велосипедист платит жизнью. Поэтому за дороги должны пропорционально платить те, кто несёт угрозу
@pereu4ivatel I will

The tax should be included on the Gas price,the more gas you use...so is your contribution for the roads..
There is already a lot of tax on the gas/petrol. This means car users are the ones who pay for the stoops and many roads for bikes too? What is their benefit?
Thank you for your vote. Enjoy your day. 💕

I think a system in which everyone pays for everything is fairest. Even if you pay for things you don't use yourself, in most cases you still get an indirect benefit from it. For example, if I don't drive myself but have my purchases delivered by the post service, I still benefit indirectly from the roads.
That is a good point plus stoops and roads for bikes need to be payed too. So somehow it should be into the tax we pay once a year to the city/provence. That would probably be 10 euro/year or even less.

And who will pay for the stoops, the squares, the roads for bikes?
