why cant they scrap the VED and put it on fuel, then that way everyone pays it and save time one money on having vans and the people who operate them sitting at road sides?

So the 'top 1% of polluting cars' are those over 225 g/km ? Or is it 250 g/km ?
Either way, it seems odd that only 1% of cars are over whichever one of those it is.
Mine's way over
I'm in the top 1%

Now now, no need for that sort of emotive language ;-)
tbh i think more tax differential for big/small cars makes sense, but it would be better achieved (I think) through fuel duty or other use-related levy.

If it's a car you already own then you can find out by checking CO2 emissions on your V5C registration certificate – section 4 or on the front of the older style V5 registration document.
Not sure how you would find out for one which you don't own though, could always try dealers website.
