Taking cars off the road prematurely is a blatant waste of the massive amounts of fossil fuels and chemical pollution generated in their manufacture. New vehicles will increase overall pollution. Like cash to clunkers in the US, it will encourage new car sales AT THE EXPENSE of the environment. So which are they -- corrupt, or merely inept?

Next will be your cash. They will be confiscating that soon as well!

It's high time to dump that shithole EU.

Refure to comply. De-register your car and drive it anyway.

In Swden, the fine for driving an un-taxed car (any car not registered as in-use is exempt from taxes, but you're not allowed to drive it on public roads) is between €200-€400.

The annual tax is higher.

My mother has had her license since the fifties and have driven cars since then - she's yet to be pulled over for a random check. Most people never are.

Also, you can set up a fake owner outside the Union - it's a common trick among migrants here. The owner is the one who is fined for illegal parking et c. The process involved with seizing an untaxed vehicle with hundreds of thousands of crowns in fines and fees attached takes years. Only downside is, you can't sell the vehicle legally or insure it.

Do what serbs, gypsies, arabs and so on does: ignore the system and establish your own outside of it.

New cars collect an enormous amount of data on you and share that data. The security on new cars is so poor that cars can even be controlled remotely. They want to add remote kill switches in new cars. They can't do these things with older cars. More nations need to exit EU and the people behind these agendas need to be held accountable.

Black Nobility is a complete and utter JOKE.

Sounds like the big bucks are going to the immature, brat wacko's seeking Liberal Art's

Bachelor's Degrees who remain P.O.'ed at Mummy and Daddy who're paying for useless University.

That's how they pay for their Ideologue activist rioting while partying their way to completing

Psych Majors providing qualifications to think shite up creating misery by stealing Inalienable Rights.

They should call it "the motor law" so we can live in the song "Red Barchetta" by RUSH.

I don't have a car, I walk. There are not many parking bays where I live, the bays are owned by privileged tenants, the elite. My foot is not great. I use public transport. I am in my late 60's, I do not have the comfort of owning and driving my own car. The street pavements will be even more full when there are less cars, there will be more pedestrians.

Slaves don't need an own car, they have to stay inside their 15-minutes-barracks anyway, when there's no work, and when there is work, their digital wallet will buy them the transport to go there and to find back to their 15-minutes-barracks. And there will be a discounter and a kiosk, a vaccination center and a smart-phone repair workshop with each 15-minutes-barracks, so nothing will miss ever.

Even if there are no subsidies, taking cars off the road will influence some people to replace them, while driving up prices for newer used vehicles. Supply and demand. But they are frauds regardless.

The way to combat all of this corruption and control is this:

1) Make new high trust systems and use them to both hold the current corrupt ones accountable, and eventually make them obsolete

2) Use a new fusion technology called Human Swarm Intelligence in combination with high trust systems to solve problems much better in groups, in a decentralized and transparent way - from the bottom up. Or rather, peer-to-peer instead of the top down.

We wrote about using it to fix businesses, but exactly the same can be used to fix any government:

Yes, they will be useful idiots and IMO it can't come a moment too soon! And even then they won't learn.
