The money should be used to ensure that the roads are kept in good condition, and to reduce the impact of car use on the environment. # ALTERNATIVE NAME 4: Statement 4 - We should not have to pay a tax if we want to own a car. We should be able to choose how we get around. We should be able to use our cars without paying more tax for the privilege. 1: 4,2,3,1 1: 1,3,2,4 1: 3,1,2,4 1: 3,4,2,1 1: 1,2,3,4
