I don't drive. Why should I pay for roads that I never use?

Because you undoubtedly DO use the roads, indirectly. The goods you buy in shops got there via the roads. The bricks and mortar that make up your home got delivered by road.

You also similarly get indirect benefit from schools and NHS regardless of whether you personally use those things.

But if I do not watch BBC TV, then it does not benefit me in any way either directly or indirectly.
