> isn't it that the digital tracking side of things is only if you're a company who drives on roads off the network to prove where you've been?

No. It's everyone on the road. Ostensibly as a way of replacing fuel taxes with toll roads as the "user pays" funding for road building, which is bad enough. But since all that data about where everybody drives is being collected by a government department ...

@Salty
> they can already track you

Our privacy is already being violated so further privacy violation is just fine. Do you really find that convincing?

> if you want to opt out of digital RUCs then that's fine

The whole idea is "user pays" nonsense, shifting the costs of public infrastructure away from the wealthy, and onto lower-income people who are more likely to be travelling by road. Roads, like other publicly-owned transport systems, ought to be paid for collectively not individually.
