Sigh. Pay as you go road charging [news.bbc.co.uk] looks to be the next thing on the Government’s mind. Another useless concept. This one would, of course, directly impact on people like me, people who have to travel to work across some distance, because I’d either have to pay over-the-odds to drive on the motorway, or be stuck in queues with all the traffic that gets forced off the motorway and onto the city streets.
Schemes like this don’t fix the traffic problem, they just make it worse in different areas, but, of course, it wont matter to the uber-rich or the people who travel on the tube, so the “country” (ie London) will lap it up.
