Astonishing page!

The whole idea of getting people who don't need to be in cars out of them is so that people who do ( fitters, plumbers, carpenters, maintainance people of all stripes, delivery crews, glaziers etc.....) can get around. I don't understand charging someone who has to use a vehicle, to provide a service, to make a living is charged the congestion levy. That's way too much stick.

But half a mile is not too much for people to walk ( even if they're only vaguely healthy) and in London particularly, the majority of journies made in a car are under half a mile in private vehicles.

I like the Venice idea, best.
