The T charge.

Would you pay £21.50 a day to drive in London, that is how much it now costs if you have an older vehicle.
I see it as just another way of making money, just wonder whose pocket it will be lining?
Personally I'd want Sadiq Khan to pay me to drive in the sh*t hole of a place.
'Toxic' cars hit with new charge

Wont be long before it comes to a city near you.

 

Nowt to do with all those scaryplanes criss crossing above London then?

 

I dont think so, cant find zem on zuh "list".
T-Charge checker Great "tool", I think the biggest "tool" is Khan himself

 

That's because it is far easier to tackle the humble motorist

So, what happens with foreign lorry drivers then? There are already many sheckles outstanding on the Dart Charge for those blighters; they are greater polluters, but less likely to a) pay the C&T charges and, b) be chased up for it!

 

Not sure why British hauliers haven't cottoned on to the idea of registering their vehicles in europe, say Romania or Poland.
Must be a reason?
They could then do whatever they liked and compete on a level playing field.

 

Fraud?

 

Well most of the shipping in the world do something similar.

 

Is that because they don't have quite the same number of wheels?
Or, because they don't travel via the Capital in quite the same quantity?

 

MMMmmm, never thought of it that way,, you kind of have a point.
But only kind of.

 

Some do, but the mot tax will also have to be done in that county

People will slowly move away from London or any big city, i won't go through or to any big city unless i have to then i would try anything not to go

 

I entered my car reg into the TFL web site to see if it was subject to the t-charge - it wasn't.

My car is a 2001 diesel - go figure that one out

 

I've just checked the tfl web site again - my car is now subject to the t charge.

'Confusing bodge' comes to mind.

 

Right so how do you go about paying this extortion??
I assume when you pay you have to put in your reg no. and it automatically tots up how much you owe?
