[QUOTE="Peter Holmes, post: 168598, member: 302"] You can add Bradford to your list of iniquitous thieves, as I discovered to my cost a couple of weeks ago, but it could have been far worse had I not been alerted to the fact, I was tracking my way up to Perthshire with an overnight stop on route at my cousins house in Yorkshire, over breakfast the next morning my cousin casually enquired what route I had taken to his home, I answered that I had slavishly followed my SatNav, as I seem to do more and more these days, and commented that the SatNav had taken me through the salubrious outskirts of Bradford, my cousin then enquired if I had gone into the congestion zone, and then commented that it is hard to avoid doing so, they avoid Bradford like the plague. Anyway, typical of all these congestion/ULEZ schemes, although the technology clearly exists, there is zero option to check whether or not you have entered the zone, so you have little choice other than to pay the charge, or risk a draconian non payment fine at a later date, when a nice little surprise arrives in the post, why the hell you cannot simply put your reg number into the relevant site and check whether you actually owe the charge is hard to fathom, or is it?
