ABOUT US

Drivers should expect the road network to be improved and maintained to a standard that is fit for purpose, and that includes in major UK cities such as London. They should be able to use the roads in a safe and responsible manner without being subject to unreasonable restrictions or charges and petty bureaucracy. In particular the Freedom for Drivers Foundation campaigns for:

​

- Greater investment in the road network to cut congestion.

 

- Better parking provision.

 

- No road tolls or congestion taxes.

 

- More intelligent and evidence based road safety policies.

 

- Reduced taxes on owning and running cars.

It is unfortunate that transport policies in the last few years have been dominated by anti-car factions who either hate cars or are cycling fanatics. As a result we have very unbalanced transport policies in the country and particularly in major UK cities which impose enormous costs on residents and visitors. Public transport is massively subsidised while private transport is penalised and discouraged. The latest example of this is the introduction of Low Traffic Neighbourhoods where roads are closed to vehicles which is creating massive increases in congestion.
