Part of the M6 going past Birmingham was closed yesterday evening presumably for road works. In these circumstances should the M6 toll be free?
I used the toll road and there was very little traffic on it. There was very little information about what the charge would be, and I did not get a receipt.
I think folk are soon going to have to assume tolls, since many cities are going to charge at the outskirts if you use your car, I can see roads going this way too, after all if eventually the idea is to go electric, the taxing could be a nightmare, safer to charge for where cars go and you could dismantle car tax and the like and just pay to use them depending on the congestion and cleanness of the vehicles.

I've always seen large signs telling me the cost.
No thanks, you'll have no idea of what a journey will cost, especially with variable road pricing. Just go to a per mile, fixed rate, set a level that replaces both VED and fuel duty and brings the same total into the treasury.
You have to push a button to confirm you want one, (and hope there's still paper in the device)
