Hard case blames Viagra for failure to tax car

ENGLAND: A motorist who claimed to have taken so much Viagra he could not leave the house was just one of a number of excuses used by people who failed to tax their car.

According to information released by DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency), motorists caught for not having a tax disc last year used excuses including: “My mate said that if the cost of the tax is more than what the car’s worth you haven’t got to pay it.”
