@@markthoughtswithukrainemas2072 not everybody can afford to get another car u bloody idiot. People commute on daily basis to London for work and not everyone can afford it
They put the sign on a one way dual carriageway with nowhere to turn around, so by the time you see the sign you cannot turn around, you're basically kettled into the area, it's a con.
There should be the option to turn your car around before you pass into the ULEZ zone. If there isn’t that option then they’re essentially forcing you to get fined. So many people would stop and turnaround if the signs actually said £12.50 charge for driving over this line.
No there shouldn’t. No "low" emission zones should exist at all. Especially when you have the government using cars, planes, and all sorts of high emission vehicles with no sense of responsibility.
ULEZ is just another tax on the motorist with absolutely zero interest in reducing pollution from cars. If they were serious in reducing pollution from cars then they would ban cars entirely from London. What they are saying about ULEZ is that you can drive into London in your non compliant vehicle and pollute the air as you did before but we are now going to charge you 12.50 for the privilege. As I said, it’s just another tax on the motorist.
When they bring in the charge per mile that you drive, will they drop this stupid ULEZ fine? Will they reduce the amount of road tax that you pay? Where will the money go and how will it be spent? Many questions been asked about the proposals they are trying to bring in to hammer people driving in the inner M25 area.
I'm surprised he hasn't gone after the smokers yet''My new plan is that you can smoke in london so long as you give me 12.50 every time you light up a cigarette.Any one been down the tube lately.....The elephant no on talks about.
It is a shame he didn't take TFL to court for intimidation causing stress and anxiety, sue them for not abiding by a court order, chasing him just shows it is the money they want.
Agreed. I wanted to add for peoples awareness. Yes money helps these tyrants, but the main point is to 'make an example' of Noel to simply scare others. I think TFL's relentless pursuit towards Noel was a clear indicator that the move was more political. Have they had made an example of Noel, it would of sealed the loophole to warn off others and this report on the sun wouldn't of even come to existence. This is a blow towards Sadiq and more people like Noel who has discovered these unlawful acts need to show balls to stop this bs going further.
Boris Johnson was the man who wanted ULEZ . It was Boris’s idea initially to introduce it. Plans were announced by London Mayor Boris Johnson in March 2015 for the zone to come into operation in September 2020. Sadiq Khan, the subsequent mayor, introduced the zone early in 8 April 2019. The zone initially covered Central London, the same area as the existing London congestion charge.
This isn't a legal loophole. ULEZ failed the public consultation, it should not be implemented. The fact this man has to engage in gamesmanship to stop Khan doing what he has no right to do is a poor state of affairs.
Going against public opinion has been the norm in Democratic Britain since BLAIR took Britain into a war neither the public OR the British Security Service supported. But because the idiot BUSH told him to mobilise BLAIR immediately did so !
@@Right_is_Wrong If that were the case UKEZ wouldn't have failed it's public consultation. It not only failed it once, but twice. Don't waste everyone's time with your inane lies.
I remember, I once missed a turn and went straight into London. And literally SO many roads have either the LEZ or the ULEZ. Instead of a modest hour-long drive it took me 3 hours to manoeuvre around London to not once get into a low-emission zone. I had to do 180 on the roundabouts, drive through one-lane roads, roads under construction, get stuck in traffic jams, get off and on the ring road, etc. And that was all past midnight! Another problem is that sometimes they don't place them at road entrances, instead they display the signs further away, at a point of no return.
to cut emissions maybe instead of changing the culture of every city just boot out the politicians creating the cultural changes haha. then ULEZ will go with the politicians because nobody will enforce it?
The same rules in the existing ULEZ reduced the use of older more polluting vehicles presumably due to not wanting to pay like increasing the cost of cigarettes' discourages smoking.
It's a nudge to motorists to tell them the direction of travel in 5 years time and to adapt and start transitioning mentally and then via choice of transport.
If you live outside London but have to drive in 5 days a week. That’s £62.50 a week. £250 a month. £3,250 a year. Now you don’t seem to think that’s a lot. So if you want you can send me £3,250 every year. I won’t say no.
This is a wicked trap for new visitors to London. I stayed at a friends empty flat just inside the new zone for three days. After I returned home I got £80x3 fines. I was so angry I couldn’t face appealing so just paid. I regret that now. I remember seeing a sign saying ULEZ 1.5 miles ahead, but don’t remember seeing an actual Zone sign. It is a scam. The pleasure of visiting the Wallace collection is now permanently spoiled for me. I will not go to London again.

The wilfully ignorant gammons are so in denial or are so ignorant of the facts regarding ULEZ. Get a f.grip you pearl clutching hypocrites.
I live in Cornwall and am aware that the new Ulez zone encompasses Greater London. All I have heard in the press and on media is that if your car is not Ulez compliant there is a charge of £12.50 a day to be paid if it is used in that area. On Thursday 19 October I had to take my 15 year old daughter to Heathrow in order for her to fly to Germany to represent England for a Gymnastics competition. As I exited the M4 motorway I saw a sign saying Ulez zone ahead. It was dark and raining heavily ( wipers on double speed). I drove to the Premiere inn hotel and dropped her off then rejoined the motorway for my journey home. I was unsure if I had entered the Ulez zone but had seen no signs or markers to indicate that I had. On 31 October I received a Penalty Charge Notice for use of my vehicle in the charging area without paying the appropriate charge. I would gladly pay the £12.50 to use my vehicle in the zone but the Charge Notice was demanding £90? Perhaps because I live a long way from the area I was not aware that the Charge had to be paid before entering the zone or shortly afterwards. The signage was very poor or non existent, how am I expected to know when or if I entered the zone? There must be thousands of people who visit the area every day who are in non compliant vehicles unaware of the boundaries of the zone and the method of payment. I feel that this is totally unfair and unjust and needs to bought to the attention of the general public!
Another good point is by the time you can see the sign, your already getting charged. It's not like you can stop and turn around to avoid it. Frankly it should be obvious, paint the roads blue or something to show where the zones are lol. Not that I think the law should exist, but it needs to be really obvious if it does.
Well money can build hospitals and fund operations. It can create oil wells and pollute the air in the first place. So why can’t it clean air? There’s a sugar tax in Scotland to tackle obesity and diabetes and guess what… it works !
Do you think this simply in everything else in life? It’s called a disincentive. Same way if you park on a double yellow line you get a £60 fine to disincentivise you from doing it.
It appears to be a unique filtration system - where the filtration medium filters its way into people’s pockets somewhere along the line. Truly a miracle of modern science and technology.
Agree. The Mayor of London has far too much power. SK does not give a **** about Londoners, particularly the working class who he should be helping. Shame on him!!!
ALL the disasters of today-like a government being unable to over rule an idiot like Khan who is doing serious damage to London to idiotic "human rights" blocking murderers rapist and terrorists from being deported and useless NHS managers allowing a nurse to murder babies are ALL down to Blair.
Exactly. How can the London Mayor be more powerful than the Cabinet. Cabinet don't care because its totally irrelevant to them, as they get chauffeured in anyway, like everything with the cost of living, no irrelevant to them
TFL will make you pay ULEZ but they still have Diesel buses and the dirty Tube air that is 18 x worse than street level, I don't see anything being done about that
That’s absolutely brilliant. Well done him. I’m in favor of a clean environment but the way the London mayor has implemented this ULEZ has resulted in a massive overstep of his authority and ability.
Well done Noel. Calmly and carefully demolishes Khan's cash grab with his articulate and knowledgeable presentation. Tradesmen like him are the lifeblood of our country. Thank you for standing up to this bully.
Awful reporting yet again! It is not khans ULEZ it was introduced by Boris Johnson and then he also forced its expansion on Khan when he said he would with hold the boroughs funding if he didnt expand it!

ULEZ was introduced by Boris not Khan. No different to when Boris wanted to close Uxbridge and Ruislip police station when he was mayor then when Khan became mayor and was going to do it Boris was suddenly outraged as the new MP for..... Uxbridge and Ruislip!
Khans is just a finger puppet. None of these politicians have any loyalty to their country/people anymore it's all about the people they do business with.
If you are unaware of where this zone starts and all of a sudden you are in it with no way of getting out without being charged... Under Contract Law is it not true that there was no meeting "meeting of the minds", therefore no contract and any subsequent fines or charges will be null, void and neither legal or lawful?
Looks like he found them out. Good for him and shame on the TfL for continuing to annoy him even after the court verdict. He should have sued for harassment.
Sadiq Khan’s, to reduce toxic air by expanding the ULEZ to greater London will not work. He doesn’t really care about toxic air quality and here is why: - He has already made the toxic air far worse since he has introduced the LTN’s which have increased the toxic air on the main roads because we are forced to use them as there are no other alternatives, especially during rush hour. The roads are now grid locked with traffic moving at walking pace and the fumes are getting denser and not dispersing. LTN’s need to be reopened as it is causing more damage than good. Among all this, the mileage in vehicles has also increased due to the fact that we are forced to go the long way round to get to the required destination - all accumulating to even more emission being emitted! Bravo Sadiq & team. - The health for pedestrians and children as they walk along these main routes to get to stations, schools, shops is deteriorating. Even the drivers inhale more fumes when we are stuck in stationary traffic. This is really aggravating and makes no sense! - Cycle Lanes: Should not be taking up an extra lane of the roads, large pavements could be divided into two for cyclists. - The introductions of 20MPH roads are also a problem because emission fumes don’t disperse quickly and the air is getting even more polluted because of the need to drive in lower gears. Sadiq’s statement: “It is to reduce toxic air pollution” is clearly not accurate and is making matters worse. The situation is getting extremely out of hand and something needs to be done to stop him from ruining our climate even more. He should resign and Londoners should vote for someone who will make London a greater and more desirable place to live in. There needs to be a more logical and strategic plan that is well thought.

When i lived in the UK they removed lead from petrol and set up an emissions scheme.. They also kept promising better and more train/ bus routes to encourage ditching the car. Anyhoo, went back for my Moms funeral in 2011 and decided to use the bus to go into Birmingham City as my husband had never been on a double decker.....the bus I used to ride growing up was no longer, that route was scrapped so had to do a fair bit of walking to get to the alternate bus and oh boy it was filthy. We used the hire car after that for all journeys😅 Seems like its only gotten worse Edit: forgot to say, I was born in London and back in 2006 I was down the smoke and took the tube for 3 stops to visit an Aunt and it cost me over 10 quid....I thought that was mental back in 2006
The majority of Londoners rich or poor use public transport what Khan should do is just cut services in the Tory run suburbs. After all its obvious that if Khan gets voted out the Tories will suddenly find the money to fund TFL
Even if ever car WAS compliant, they will find another way of charging motorists for example the weight of most electric cars are heavier that of a normal car, the roads need more maintenance because of the extra weight, you have to pay a charge. They need/want money from motorists in all cities.
It’s disgusting what they are doing to make money, not just the ULEZ but the streets near schools fining parents for dropping there kids off or picking them up. Some parents don’t have time to walk the kids to school then back home to drive to jobs that are a fair distance away, or are single parents with more than one child but have to go to a school a distance from where they live. Funny how the MPS will have drivers take there kids in and nothing happens because apparently there exempt !!!!! Absolutely disgusting!
What? Your message makes no sense what’s having kids got to do with fining parents trying to drop their children off so they can go to work ? If you don’t have the money and time to raise them ? Eh ? What ? Lol , if you haven’t got the money to fined people don’t have kids , is that your message?
The way to do this isn't to penalise existing motorists, it's to phase out non-compliant vehicles by stopping producing them. Nobody expects to buy any product only to be told that there is now an additional charge for using said product; a business pulling that tactic would be taken to court for unfair dealing. It's bad enough that the Dartford crossing is a toll road - why? I pay vehicle excise duty and I pay tax on petrol for every mile I travel, adding random extra payment zones is weaselly.
I guess the logic behind it is people respond to financial incentives, also a lot of us complaining about ULEZ & CC have also complained about congestion & pollution for decades, so for TFL it's a catch 22 with public opinion
the Uk is so bad with providing first standard public transport. i am from Germany,have been in many european countries, where there are smooth ways to travel on public transport without having to suffer . also cycle paths are provided in several countries where you do not brake your bycicle because they are so bad maintained. So ,if the UK Government is not investing in superior public transport and cycle paths all around and everywhere in good maintainance ,why are they talking about pollution? it seems to me that most governments are told to treat us the taxpayers like idiots and cash in only.
This is what bothers me the most about ULEZ and the congestion charge (and even parking charges, fuel duty etc.). If you can afford it, it’s ok apparently.
The point is that there ought not to be zones and charges at all. How can you know aforehend that you may come across and have no exit. The whole thing is discriminatory, and unwarranted
Brilliant man. Well done. ULEZ should be scrapped anyway. How dare the nayir if London rip motorists off. He should be stopped and here is at least one legal precedent, which ids what the look law is based upon. Go for the jugular and get this awful man stopped.
Hear hear. Let's not forget, the air quality in the London Underground is proven to be over ten times worse than the official good air quality measurement of 10 on serious professional air quality measuring devices. Whereas, on the street level in the busiest of traffic at the busiest times, the same meter struggles to get over 3, indicating giid air quality. Sadist Khan is chair of the C40 group of mostly Neo-Communist Mayors of big cities around the world, so Khan is trying to demonstrate his power to the other Mayors in pushing the UN and WEF led Neo-Communist system of digitial control in the name of scientifically corrupted faux religion of climate change. Khan has to be stopped, shown the door, and thrown in the shoo marked UN WEF fraudsters.
@@Gary-hj2lc Well said. I used to use the underground network extensively over many years, and it never affected me. Of course, this further means in reality the street level air quality is even less of a problem for the people as it is over 19 times less tham down below.
Lol I read this as ‘neo-con’ - but saw you’d said ‘neo-communist’ !!! Hahaha, as if you thing that’s what the WEF is about. What a cosnirpact theorist. Amazing, turkeys voting for Christmas. If only you understood class struggle better.. communism might actually help you.
Exactly right. Those signs mean nothing if you don’t know what they mean, or whether your vehicle complies. The sign could say gobbledygook because that’s all it means.
Fighting a similar issue with school zone cameras giving tickets outside of school hours in GA. There was no signs saying enforcement existed outside of school hours when I was ticketed. They've since added it.
So if you fight for it until court you might win result " tfl illegal signs". How comes it has not been removed till then and what about people who still is being fooled and paying those charges?????
The scary thing is that they can enforce this and send in bailiffs ect In Northern Ireland bailiffs are illegal and I believe this should be the case in the UK
all about money and not about cleaning the Air. but there's more flights into/Out of Heathrow which pollutes the air more in a month than a years worth of cars can ever do.
This may be a silly question, but if you only get charged when caught by a camera at the edges of the zone, does that mean that provided you never leave the zone you can drive round all day every day without a charge?. Also I saw a video the other day that was about a man who bought a right rust bucket chucking out fumes all over the place and registered it with the DVLA as having Transport for London as the registered keeper so all his fines went to TfL.
No...so it must just read the number plate and then anything after a 24 hour period pick up that number plate again and charge again. Otherwise residents would pay once and if they stayed in the zone, never pay again. So many people will quit London to move to surrounding areas outside the M25...only for ULEZ to expand more...and more....and then more. For TFL to not even make it clear that it's a charging zone says it all...they have designed it for fines - and you still have to pay the charge too on top of the fine. The revenue generated will run into billions....in a very short time. London has just been ruined...completely this time.
I have a 15 year old diesel car that if I drive into London I will need to pay the £12.50. That car emits 180 g CO2 per km. I recently bought a new petrol car which emits 220 g CO2 per km. This new car can drive into London with no need to pay the ULEZ fee. Something has not been thought through with all this, obviously…
So will they be refunding all those people that have been hit with these illegal charges? Not likely and that’s the problem with government, no accountability for their actions.
They do not want to ban private car ownership, what? Private cars still exist in the Netherlands and in Denmark, where anti-car measures are far more strict.
So those paying money are still chugging out fumes, and those that are compliant, are also still chugging out fumes. What’s the point ? Fumes are still being produced ! The only way to reduce fumes in London or any big city is to pedestrianise the whole city !
And bring it to a grinding halt presumably? What I don't understand though is why I'm nearly 64, and am as fit now as I ever was - despite having lived near busy roads most of my life. It's funny really, why when the air is supposedly so terrible , they allow the London Marathon to go ahead each year, don't they realise that they'll all be dead within a week!!!!
Your argument is flawed, years ago there were coal fires and actual smog which was detremental to health . Even with all the cars and traffic now its nowhere near as bad as the smog days. Cars are 30 times cleaner now than 50 years ago. It has also been proven the air quality is NOT bad in London.
Totally agree with this, I’m from Oxford and recently got a job in London. Totally unaware that there is a charge until speaking to another staff member and then making me aware. Week later I get a fine, totally unacceptable! These signs don’t state anything about being charged
If every single person appealed then people could actually fight this... If everyone refused to pay up what they really gonna do? Chase up all these millions of people...
The air pollution at ground level has been recorded at well below the recognised safety limit - whereas air quality on the underground is something like over 4x the permissable exposure limit. That's what I read recently - a tiktocker posted with a hand held particulate monitor.
This is exactly the kind of ACTION that is needed in order to challenge these unwarranted money making rackets by Mayor Khan and his office. This gentleman was given a fine of £11,500 in total! Enough to break a small business or bankrupt an individual - its insane! But he didn't just moan about it, no he decided to do something constructive about it and he won the day not just for himself but potentially for other motorists. When the man in the street decides NO, enough is enough we can all benefit.
Also there is warning at distance ie the Dartford Bridge is signed a long way back. It tells you to exit the M25 at next junction to not be charged for crossing.
It's so obviously an old trick being played out: introduce something under the cover of something else, which initially only penalizes a small minority of the population. Then, a little later introduce what you always planned (which in this case is full time monitoring and charging for all movement).
Monday, September 11, 2023 ☁⛅☁ I admire Noel for taking these 7 tickets to court! 😀 And a judge agreed with Noel; he won in court! 👨🌾 The ULEZ clerks were still nagging him to pay them, even though Noel has a legal ruling against them; their signs are illegal! This shows you that Sadiq Khan and his crew only care about money. They are hurting and robbing from working people, but they just don't care. 😕
Is the Mayor gonna slap another £12.50 on the London Underground. Because that must be 10x worse than the overhead. He don't mind that because your using the London public transport
charging people to go to the seat of our elected government, if it isn't wrong in law, it is most definitely wrong in principle. Saddiq's head should be on a post, not the camera's, as a warning to other politicians.
Personally I just stay away from London but obviously not everyone can do that. It is horrific though with all the different charges that you have to be aware of, and not least try to keep up with the information on the signs while simultaneously navigating London traffic. This alone should be cause to make all those charges illegal.
It does matter who'd behind it. Because the Tories are pretending they had nothing to do with it. When in fact a stipulation for TfL to get emergency funding was to introduce a ULEZ charge.
The LEZ has been around for 15 years and signs are everywhere. I remember it because at the time, they wanted to target vans but then scrapped the idea and only targeted vehicles above 3.5t.
I drove from the midlands for an event at the Copper Box last July. I'd never heard of this charging zone until a debt collector showed up at my door over 7 months later. A £700 charge for entering on the Friday, another £400 for leaving on the Sunday. They took every penny I had saved purely because I had no idea I had to pay for driving on public roads.

They put the sign on a one way dual carriageway with nowhere to turn around, so by the time you see the sign you cannot turn around, you're basically kettled into the area, it's a con.
There should be the option to turn your car around before you pass into the ULEZ zone. If there isn’t that option then they’re essentially forcing you to get fined. So many people would stop and turnaround if the signs actually said £12.50 charge for driving over this line.
No there shouldn’t. No "low" emission zones should exist at all. Especially when you have the government using cars, planes, and all sorts of high emission vehicles with no sense of responsibility.
ULEZ is just another tax on the motorist with absolutely zero interest in reducing pollution from cars. If they were serious in reducing pollution from cars then they would ban cars entirely from London. What they are saying about ULEZ is that you can drive into London in your non compliant vehicle and pollute the air as you did before but we are now going to charge you 12.50 for the privilege. As I said, it’s just another tax on the motorist.
When they bring in the charge per mile that you drive, will they drop this stupid ULEZ fine? Will they reduce the amount of road tax that you pay? Where will the money go and how will it be spent? Many questions been asked about the proposals they are trying to bring in to hammer people driving in the inner M25 area.

It is a shame he didn't take TFL to court for intimidation causing stress and anxiety, sue them for not abiding by a court order, chasing him just shows it is the money they want.
Agreed. I wanted to add for peoples awareness. Yes money helps these tyrants, but the main point is to 'make an example' of Noel to simply scare others. I think TFL's relentless pursuit towards Noel was a clear indicator that the move was more political. Have they had made an example of Noel, it would of sealed the loophole to warn off others and this report on the sun wouldn't of even come to existence. This is a blow towards Sadiq and more people like Noel who has discovered these unlawful acts need to show balls to stop this bs going further.
He should take Boris Johnson to court because ULEZ was his idea.
Yeah it's BULLYING..
Boris Johnson was the man who wanted ULEZ .
It was Boris’s idea initially to introduce it.
Plans were announced by London Mayor Boris Johnson in March 2015 for the zone to come into operation in September 2020. Sadiq Khan, the subsequent mayor, introduced the zone early in 8 April 2019. The zone initially covered Central London, the same area as the existing London congestion charge.
@@grime_garagewell there is a point not defending Johnson but he never brought it even though it was his idea khan as instead
This isn't a legal loophole. ULEZ failed the public consultation, it should not be implemented. The fact this man has to engage in gamesmanship to stop Khan doing what he has no right to do is a poor state of affairs.

Good guy..well done taking them to court.
I remember, I once missed a turn and went straight into London. And literally SO many roads have either the LEZ or the ULEZ. Instead of a modest hour-long drive it took me 3 hours to manoeuvre around London to not once get into a low-emission zone. I had to do 180 on the roundabouts, drive through one-lane roads, roads under construction, get stuck in traffic jams, get off and on the ring road, etc. And that was all past midnight! Another problem is that sometimes they don't place them at road entrances, instead they display the signs further away, at a point of no return.
All that driving caused extra pollution. 😂
to cut emissions maybe instead of changing the culture of every city just boot out the politicians creating the cultural changes haha. then ULEZ will go with the politicians because nobody will enforce it?
😂😂
Everyone that has been charged should put in a claim for the payment plus interest plus any costs
And compensation for stress 😊
100% claim you fine back from TfL
A class action lawsuit would be the way to go
Why did the judge adjourn the case? They knew what the appeal was, and they couldn't be arsed to turn up.
I might aswell sue them for the cost of my car and claim they forced me to upgrade or pay. Free car wohooo
We're worried about everyone health in London but if you pay £12.50 we don't care about every body's health 😂 makes no sense
The same rules in the existing ULEZ reduced the use of older more polluting vehicles presumably due to not wanting to pay like increasing the cost of cigarettes' discourages smoking.
It's a nudge to motorists to tell them the direction of travel in 5 years time and to adapt and start transitioning mentally and then via choice of transport.
Yeah I mean there's probably a good reason your name is "roofing contractors".... Not the sharpest tools in the shed, if you'd excuse the pun.
If you live outside London but have to drive in 5 days a week. That’s £62.50 a week. £250 a month. £3,250 a year.
Now you don’t seem to think that’s a lot. So if you want you can send me £3,250 every year. I won’t say no.

I was so angry I couldn’t face appealing so just paid. I regret that now. I remember seeing a sign saying ULEZ 1.5 miles ahead, but don’t remember seeing an actual Zone sign. It is a scam.

The wilfully ignorant gammons are so in denial or are so ignorant of the facts regarding ULEZ.
Get a f.grip you pearl clutching hypocrites.
You could always use public transport, drive a compliant vehicle or pay the fee? It’s not rocket science…
I live in Cornwall and am aware that the new Ulez zone encompasses Greater London. All I have heard in the press and on media is that if your car is not Ulez compliant there is a charge of £12.50 a day to be paid if it is used in that area.
On Thursday 19 October I had to take my 15 year old daughter to Heathrow in order for her to fly to Germany to represent England for a Gymnastics competition. As I exited the M4 motorway I saw a sign saying Ulez zone ahead. It was dark and raining heavily ( wipers on double speed). I drove to the Premiere inn hotel and dropped her off then rejoined the motorway for my journey home.
I was unsure if I had entered the Ulez zone but had seen no signs or markers to indicate that I had.
On 31 October I received a Penalty Charge Notice for use of my vehicle in the charging area without paying the appropriate charge.
I would gladly pay the £12.50 to use my vehicle in the zone but the Charge Notice was demanding £90?
Perhaps because I live a long way from the area I was not aware that the Charge had to be paid before entering the zone or shortly afterwards.
The signage was very poor or non existent, how am I expected to know when or if I entered the zone?
There must be thousands of people who visit the area every day who are in non compliant vehicles unaware of the boundaries of the zone and the method of payment.
I feel that this is totally unfair and unjust and needs to bought to the attention of the general public!
Peter-reply Thats disgusting I'm so shocked Feel sorry for you
Another good point is by the time you can see the sign, your already getting charged. It's not like you can stop and turn around to avoid it. Frankly it should be obvious, paint the roads blue or something to show where the zones are lol. Not that I think the law should exist, but it needs to be really obvious if it does.
Who would have thought that money can clean air. Amazing
That's government supremacy for you.
Well money can build hospitals and fund operations. It can create oil wells and pollute the air in the first place. So why can’t it clean air? There’s a sugar tax in Scotland to tackle obesity and diabetes and guess what… it works !
Who would have thought making air quality out of cars a harder requirement would clean the air in the region. Amazing.
Do you think this simply in everything else in life? It’s called a disincentive. Same way if you park on a double yellow line you get a £60 fine to disincentivise you from doing it.
It appears to be a unique filtration system - where the filtration medium filters its way into people’s pockets somewhere along the line. Truly a miracle of modern science and technology.

Under Contract Law is it not true that there was no meeting "meeting of the minds", therefore no contract and any subsequent fines or charges will be null, void and neither legal or lawful?
Looks like he found them out. Good for him and shame on the TfL for continuing to annoy him even after the court verdict. He should have sued for harassment.
Sadiq Khan’s, to reduce toxic air by expanding the ULEZ to greater London will not work.
He doesn’t really care about toxic air quality and here is why:
- He has already made the toxic air far worse since he has introduced the LTN’s which have increased the toxic air on the main roads because we are forced to use them as there are no other alternatives, especially during rush hour. The roads are now grid locked with traffic moving at walking pace and the fumes are getting denser and not dispersing. LTN’s need to be reopened as it is causing more damage than good.
Among all this, the mileage in vehicles has also increased due to the fact that we are forced to go the long way round to get to the required destination - all accumulating to even more emission being emitted! Bravo Sadiq & team.
- The health for pedestrians and children as they walk along these main routes to get to stations, schools, shops is deteriorating. Even the drivers inhale more fumes when we are stuck in stationary traffic. This is really aggravating and makes no sense!
- Cycle Lanes: Should not be taking up an extra lane of the roads, large pavements could be divided into two for cyclists.
- The introductions of 20MPH roads are also a problem because emission fumes don’t disperse quickly and the air is getting even more polluted because of the need to drive in lower gears.
Sadiq’s statement: “It is to reduce toxic air pollution” is clearly not accurate and is making matters worse. The situation is getting extremely out of hand and something needs to be done to stop him from ruining our climate even more. He should resign and Londoners should vote for someone who will make London a greater and more desirable place to live in. There needs to be a more logical and strategic plan that is well thought.

It's bad enough that the Dartford crossing is a toll road - why? I pay vehicle excise duty and I pay tax on petrol for every mile I travel, adding random extra payment zones is weaselly.

@@eastwood978 Indeed. I suspect this affects tradies with older vans more than anyone else.

I guess the logic behind it is people respond to financial incentives, also a lot of us complaining about ULEZ & CC have also complained about congestion & pollution for decades, so for TFL it's a catch 22 with public opinion
At least dartford crossing is a fairer charge at 2.50. And free after 10pm.

How comes this has not been mentioned on the TV news
the Uk is so bad with providing first standard public transport. i am from Germany,have been in many european countries, where there are smooth ways to travel on public transport without having to suffer . also cycle paths are provided in several countries where you do not brake your bycicle because they are so bad maintained. So ,if the UK Government is not investing in superior public transport and cycle paths all around and everywhere in good maintainance ,why are they talking about pollution? it seems to me that most governments are told to treat us the taxpayers like idiots and cash in only.
Surely continuing to try and enforce the 'charge' after a court has ruled in favour of the individual is contempt of court by TfL?
this is so true. Not being a Londoner, I also got confused over the low emssions zone sings on the rare visits to London . He is right.
Low emissions signs have been on the M1/M25 for years and for years were meaningless. As far as I am concerned they still will be.
So...once you have paid the charge does your car not pump out fumes? if not what is the point really?

The people who pre pay ULEZ are aware of the charge so cannot get a refund
No your incorrect
Fighting a similar issue with school zone cameras giving tickets outside of school hours in GA. There was no signs saying enforcement existed outside of school hours when I was ticketed. They've since added it.
So if you fight for it until court you might win result " tfl illegal signs". How comes it has not been removed till then and what about people who still is being fooled and paying those charges?????
This guy should be hailed a hero!
The scary thing is that they can enforce this and send in bailiffs ect
In Northern Ireland bailiffs are illegal and I believe this should be the case in the UK
Like you need this extra work when you run a small business.
all about money and not about cleaning the Air. but there's more flights into/Out of Heathrow which pollutes the air more in a month than a years worth of cars can ever do.
Don’t worry they will be quick to silence him
Totally agree. The guys understand the situation. If your not a Londoner it’s Double Dutch !
This may be a silly question, but if you only get charged when caught by a camera at the edges of the zone, does that mean that provided you never leave the zone you can drive round all day every day without a charge?.
Also I saw a video the other day that was about a man who bought a right rust bucket chucking out fumes all over the place and registered it with the DVLA as having Transport for London as the registered keeper so all his fines went to TfL.
No...so it must just read the number plate and then anything after a 24 hour period pick up that number plate again and charge again. Otherwise residents would pay once and if they stayed in the zone, never pay again. So many people will quit London to move to surrounding areas outside the M25...only for ULEZ to expand more...and more....and then more. For TFL to not even make it clear that it's a charging zone says it all...they have designed it for fines - and you still have to pay the charge too on top of the fine. The revenue generated will run into billions....in a very short time. London has just been ruined...completely this time.
I have a 15 year old diesel car that if I drive into London I will need to pay the £12.50. That car emits 180 g CO2 per km. I recently bought a new petrol car which emits 220 g CO2 per km. This new car can drive into London with no need to pay the ULEZ fee. Something has not been thought through with all this, obviously…
C02 is not the only pollutant!
So will they be refunding all those people that have been hit with these illegal charges? Not likely and that’s the problem with government, no accountability for their actions.
Where is the provision for turning around and going back instead of continuing into the ULEZ, or to stop to consult a map?
This isn't about money, it's about control. They eventually want to ban private car ownership. ULEZ is just about increasing coverage for TfL cameras.
If that was the case they would just increase camera footage fullstop
about money mainly i'd say.... same with the digital currency proposals.. yea control to a degree but deep down money
They do not want to ban private car ownership, what? Private cars still exist in the Netherlands and in Denmark, where anti-car measures are far more strict.
So those paying money are still chugging out fumes, and those that are compliant, are also still chugging out fumes. What’s the point ? Fumes are still being produced ! The only way to reduce fumes in London or any big city is to pedestrianise the whole city !
And bring it to a grinding halt presumably? What I don't understand though is why I'm nearly 64, and am as fit now as I ever was - despite having lived near busy roads most of my life.
It's funny really, why when the air is supposedly so terrible , they allow the London Marathon to go ahead each year, don't they realise that they'll all be dead within a week!!!!
Your argument is flawed, years ago there were coal fires and actual smog which was detremental to health . Even with all the cars and traffic now its nowhere near as bad as the smog days. Cars are 30 times cleaner now than 50 years ago. It has also been proven the air quality is NOT bad in London.
"what's the point?". The point is that TFL was bankrupted by Covid.
Oh yes that'll work
@@toonarmy8524 no… it’s been proven that air quality IS bad in London, that’s the point.
Totally agree with this, I’m from Oxford and recently got a job in London. Totally unaware that there is a charge until speaking to another staff member and then making me aware. Week later I get a fine, totally unacceptable! These signs don’t state anything about being charged
Appeal the fine
If every single person appealed then people could actually fight this... If everyone refused to pay up what they really gonna do? Chase up all these millions of people...
The air pollution at ground level has been recorded at well below the recognised safety limit - whereas air quality on the underground is something like over 4x the permissable exposure limit. That's what I read recently - a tiktocker posted with a hand held particulate monitor.
For workers they should be exempt not for leisure use though!!
Over 300 cameras already removed by citizens. :)
This is exactly the kind of ACTION that is needed in order to challenge these unwarranted money making rackets by Mayor Khan and his office. This gentleman was given a fine of £11,500 in total! Enough to break a small business or bankrupt an individual - its insane! But he didn't just moan about it, no he decided to do something constructive about it and he won the day not just for himself but potentially for other motorists. When the man in the street decides NO, enough is enough we can all benefit.
Also there is warning at distance ie the Dartford Bridge is signed a long way back. It tells you to exit the M25 at next junction to not be charged for crossing.
The press must be made aware of this!!
Now ULEZ is in Cudham a few miles from Rochester Kent
My friend was caught..NOT fair..
Texting is illegal but signs are ok
are you daft?
It's so obviously an old trick being played out: introduce something under the cover of something else, which initially only penalizes a small minority of the population. Then, a little later introduce what you always planned (which in this case is full time monitoring and charging for all movement).

I admire Noel for taking these 7 tickets to court! 😀 And a judge agreed with Noel; he won in court! 👨🌾
The ULEZ clerks were still nagging him to pay them, even though Noel has a legal ruling against them; their signs are illegal!
This shows you that Sadiq Khan and his crew only care about money. They are hurting and robbing from working people, but they just don't care. 😕
ukgovdotcon are the biggest bluffing blaggers around
Is the Mayor gonna slap another £12.50 on the London Underground. Because that must be 10x worse than the overhead. He don't mind that because your using the London public transport
charging people to go to the seat of our elected government, if it isn't wrong in law, it is most definitely wrong in principle. Saddiq's head should be on a post, not the camera's, as a warning to other politicians.
Personally I just stay away from London but obviously not everyone can do that. It is horrific though with all the different charges that you have to be aware of, and not least try to keep up with the information on the signs while simultaneously navigating London traffic. This alone should be cause to make all those charges illegal.
Sunak does not want you to remember that the expansion of ULEZ is at the direction of Grant Shaps, and is government policy 😂😂😂
sunak is actively trying to block the ULEZ expansion.
Don't care who is behind it, neither COnservatives , Labour , LiB Dems, Greens or SNP are up to loking after the citizens rights. We need a change
It does matter who'd behind it. Because the Tories are pretending they had nothing to do with it. When in fact a stipulation for TfL to get emergency funding was to introduce a ULEZ charge.
Criminal government eh? Who knew that could happen XD
He is so right. All the signage and ULEZ needs to get scrapped !
Along with tinKhan
The LEZ has been around for 15 years and signs are everywhere. I remember it because at the time, they wanted to target vans but then scrapped the idea and only targeted vehicles above 3.5t.
I drove from the midlands for an event at the Copper Box last July. I'd never heard of this charging zone until a debt collector showed up at my door over 7 months later. A £700 charge for entering on the Friday, another £400 for leaving on the Sunday. They took every penny I had saved purely because I had no idea I had to pay for driving on public roads.
hi mate, you might have problems getting your money back, however seeing this video gives me a pretty good idea of how to go about it, put a couple of feelers out to lawyers or your local council to see if there's a response. good luck
@@Fred-hunt you bet the money just goes to more war an military expenditure. dont want to mention that part. maybe just get a film that obscures your license plate.. they don't deserve this level of control an snobbery over us
Amazing what menticide tactics can do to the public.
It’s money grabbing, that’s all it is, I hope more people fight against this. ULEZ appears to just be a double up on the Congestion charge, they are treating us all like mugs, it’s disgraceful
So tube and buses private but nationislied by back door this needs press investigation?!!
Magic
The signs need to actually state a charge and what the charge is, like a toll road. How else would anyone know what they're letting themselves in for? No number to call, no website listed, nothing.
having in a duel carriageway it entrapment. same as a car park you are given time to park read the charges and T/C if not happy with them you leave. every zone when you get to it should have cost and a place to turn around because you cannot informed choose if it 10p yer but it could be £100 so charges displayed and a turn around place before the zone starts, if i do not see them i go to court and fight it
