The ULEZ thread

[Easy-X]

LEZ, ULEZ, ZEZ? Sounds like "my pronouns are..."

London mayor scraps plan for 2025 zero-emission zone

Will this be Genghis Khan's "poll tax" moment?

Don't think they tried getting the Poll tax through by saying it would save little kiddies lives?

Net zero religion means you cannot oppose it without being some Hitler loving child killer

Like every other useless political meddling, people will just tolerate it, people on internet forums will endlessly say others will rise up to stop it, they wont.

Nope, I'd argue that most of his core voters have access to a motability vehicle provided by a spurious invalidity claim
which by virtue of being <3 years old will be compliant diesel or otherwise. It won't affect his little postal voting mates at all.

Twitter is awash with footage of the "Bladerunners" fucking up ULEZ cameras. Political commentators are calling Genghis Khan every name under the sun and yet the police are yet to charge anyone with criminal damage and no libel cases have been made

Strictly speaking that's about the old LEZ signage. It would probably need someone to take out a specific case against ULEZ signage but it should be a slam-dunk to cite the previous case.

Genghis Khan's been thrown under the [TFL EV eco] bus by both his own party and the government.

Drove my 5.5L V8 petrol engine through London yesterday. It was ok, it is ULEZ compliant somehow...

Both of my vehicles are compliant and I haven't even been near to London in the last 8 years.

You are clickbaiting. How a new zone is related to ULEZ as the title say?

As far the ULEZ goes its already in place.

You've been with ze Germans too long, Val. Conformity is a sin not a virtue.

I paid a place £170 ish and they tested my bike (1986, D-reg...inline 4 , 4 stroke, carbs of course) two weeks ago and it got a 0.13 reading, i.e passed.
I didnt mess about making it richer or anything, nor did it need a CAT fitted. Took 48 hours to register on Khans system and show up as compliant.

Nice! It's probably a case of the more modern the bike the more likely it'll be running lean (for fuel efficiency) and need tweaking.

yup...thats exactly it...nox is formed when temps are super high..the exhaust gas exiting can actually burn the atmosphere around it too....lower temps=almost no nox....more fuel, more oil etc=lower burn temps.

so carbs are easier to pass...2strokes are easier to pass etc.
weirdly, anything approaching the modern era that isnt complaint already= more difficult to pass, e.g. early fuel injected bikes and so on.

Ulez: 510 camera-related crimes in five months, says Met Police

I doubt we have had so much active actions against something probably since the poll tax. Yes, we have people sticking themselves to roads and throwing cream pies at airline owners but actual vandalism that you can be sure will invoke the hardest possible sentence for any prosecuted offender is quite unsurpassed in UK modern era.

At least 510 Ulez cameras were stolen or vandalised between 1 April and the end of August this year, figures from the Metropolitan Police show.

I deliberately entered the ULEZ which borders where I live just to see what the fuss is all about first hand. The interesting thing is the ULEZ cameras were placed in concealed positions behind roads signs, etc. They know what they're doing is evil.

It's hardly as if it's unsporting. It's not as if it's a surprise. Don't want to pay the fee? Don't fucking drive into the zone.

The zone is absolutely vast, to be fair. Covers a lot of areas which are only London by name and not by nature. It's affecting people (mostly car enthusiasts).
