I confess I do get angry at the readers who complain that they were not reminded by post that their VED was up for renewal. It's not as if the tax disc doesn't stare them in the face every time they use their car. You should see the mail from elderly drivers who refuse to left foot brake their automatics while manoeuvring, and consequently kill and maim quite a lot of their closest relatives as a result, blaming the car for 'running away' when they could, so easily, have prevented it.
