top of that, with more and more people using public transportation
systems, the country will be able to put a “cap” on the “indiscriminate
use” of private transports, even when not needed, in order to
prevent
the roads and streets from getting over-crowded. And, as a result of
this, we will be able to keep a “cap” on air pollution as well in our
country.
Q. 6. Why some countries impose higher taxes on car
ownership? How is the scenario in your country?
Answer:
The primary reason to impose hefty taxes on car ownership is
to discourage citizens from buying and
using more and more private
cars and to curb air pollution.
The scenario in my country is not much different when it comes to
imposing higher taxes on car ownership. In fact, over the last decade,
the number of private cars has increased to such extent that the
government has been forced to put a tax on
the ownership of a new car
as high as 300% of the purchasing price in some cases!
This kind of high taxes is only natural in countries where there are a
huge number of travellers with significantly limited road infrastructures
as this is how the government of a country tries to limit the number of
private cars on the streets. This should be also a familiar scenario in
countries where there are risks of higher air pollution than its normal
danger level.
