Not road tax. It's a right hand drive car, so it's not in the US. Of the countries that drive on the left side of the road, the UK has a well known pot hole problem, so it's almost certainly from the UK, where there is no road tax, and pothole repairs come out of general taxation.
Not everyone lives in the US.
There's potholes in other places than the UK which is why people find this meme relatable.
What about singapore?
