The post you are reporting:
Peter! You surprise me. Your information is very, very old!
What you describe was how in theory it was supposed to be in some European countries in the 50's!
However, no European country that imposed motorway tolls ever scrapped these once the mototways were paid off, but increased them each year.
Are you really not aware that in France, Italy and other countries, there are tolls on motorways?
Of-course anyone can confirm that there are, by just going over to Europe on a trip.
I wonder how your information on the People's Port is, if it is based on trumped out information like the piece above regards to European motorways.
It's a reason more to seriously doubt the whole idea of the P/p trust, which seems to be based on fantasy declarations to dispel any contrary proposal.
Germany introduced motorway tolls about 5 years ago for the first time, notwithstanding the motorays were already paid for.
Only here in Britain do we live in an era of Stone-Age when it comes to common-sense financing of our road facilities: the Europeans must think we are strange! Every truck can enter our Country with belly-tanks full of petrol and not pay a penny on petrol tax to us, and every vehicle can rumble through without paying a penny.
Peter, if you are sure of your above statement, try informing yourself more correctly! Many can tell you the exact opposite.
