Road User Charges in Britain
TL;DR: In this article, the authors calculate the efficient road user charge and compare it with the allocated cost, and empirically confirm that the road damage charge is only 40 percent of total damage cost s, but that congestion costs may more than compensate for the shortfa ll This is empirically confirmed for the United Kingdom, where the efficient charge for cars is shown to exceed their allocated cost.
