Used Car Prices

The HoS has an article on how government policy may put up used car prices by $5,000 or so.

Now from a totally selfish point of view, this may not be all bad.  It means poorer families won’t be able to afford cars, which will reduce congestion on the roads for those who can.

So maybe it is part of a Labour/Green master plan to drive poor people off the roads so that rich people spend less time in traffic jams?
