I've been reading depending on your postcode if you live in a heavily congested part of the country you will pay more than someone in rural areas or less congested areas, New cars will be 'Geo-Fenced' with GPS software & billed automatically.


The new "Smart PHEV" models out now from BMW & Ford Europe have Geo-Fence capabilities wherein they will automatically change from ICE to BEV mode when entering towns, Cities, ULEZ's & CAZ's



Germany for instance who currently have the EU presidency want to impose tolls on all motorways not just in Germany either but in every European country Expect more of the same here.

The shape of things to come with batteries in everything nowadays. We have only just seen the tip of the iceberg. The catastrophic pollution and slavery generated by the production of these incendiary devices needs to be highlighted big time . Zero emission badges fitted on cars eh, who do they think they are fooling? Bit like the early 90’s when they fitted CATALYTIC CONVERTER badges in an attempt to greenwash.
