Ultra Low Emission Zone in London

[Sister Sledge]

[grr666]

And when my old transit is exported to a shithole country, with no MOT checks to ensure a minimum standard of repair is
maintained will it not still be pumping out the same crap into the same sky as before? While additionally it steadily deteriorates
into African vehicle standards and is used and abused without mercy running on whatever it will burn until every panel has
been replaced with corrugated iron and the ends of oil drums? It's not fixing the problem, it's moving it elsewhere.

FYI Leeds is consulting on a low emissions zone. If this happens I may have to upgrade the bandit :-O before it hits 100,000 miles. I have a long way to go on that.

And I conceed that Fazer probalby does manage 100k a year. Kilometres that is.

I have not dropped this issue and have looked at the research and emissions of EURO3 motorbikes which will be charged the £12.50 per day in central London.

Basically, they meet the standards TfL have made for emissions yet are still included in the ULEZ.

I have my (London) MP on the case and want to get this into the media - I'm emailing the Evening Standard's transport editor but if anyone else has a contact who might want to pick this up then let me know!

It seems like someone in TFL just choose a cut off date and declared that all vehicle models before 2007 have to pay up

This appears to have been done with no real investigation as it is evident from your attached report that motorcycles made before 2007 meet the emissions requirements and should be exempt from the ULEZ charge also

If you were really serious about low emissions you ban vehicles from entering this zone full stop with a few practical exceptions.

The whole thing to me just seems like a successful money making scheme

Someone's got to pay for all the increased stabby stabby...

[woo]

This mayoral office seems hell bent on having no vehicles in central London, how do they expect all the shops to get practical deliveries?

stabby stabby and blow up blow up will only disappear once mpd72 becomes prime minister and has complete control of the army and complete control of corporate companies lol

Hmmm my 07 plate CBF1000 checks out as ok on the TfL site....

However they'll still screw us over in other ways. The latest leaflet left on the bike is on about a plan for blanket 15mph speed limits in the City. But bear in mind that's not the whole of London only the very centre.

However, if pedestrian safety is their goal I recommend taking a hard line approach to applying and enforcing jaywalking laws. If a person on foot crosses a road anywhere other than a pedestrian crossing or crosses against a red light they have on the spot punishment. Not drastic like killing or anything, but maybe losing a foot or being blinded. Or is that too softly softly?

Is it a late registration? I Just checked a few '07 plates and they were subject to the ULEZ.

EDIT: and this one isn't cos... Date of 1st Registration: 2007-08-01. Yes I am that bored

[Serendipity]

What checker are you looking at? Because the TfL site says that one in the ebay ad is ok.

Mine was registered 20th July 2007

Edit: misread your post. Yeah that one is ok
