The shape of things to come (I reckon) is a GPS box in every vehicle to facilitate 'pay-per-mile' road tax. As a convenient side effect, your location and max speed / average speed will be recorded by big brother and fines generated automatically. Won't happen in the next 10 years I reckon... but eventually.

Norwich Union... err, Aviva, already offer this to customers looking to be part of their pilot, although they do it under the guise of 'pay-per-mile' insurance.
