Labour frontbencher suggests ULEZ expansion needs rethinking<\/h3>\n

Thousands of motorists are likely to be hit with \u00a3180 fines for breaking new car tax rules without even knowing as London\u2019s Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) charges expand from today.<\/p>\n

Rule changes mean some owners of polluting petrol and diesel cars are now liable to pay \u00a312.50 per day to use their cars in Outer London boroughs.<\/p>\n

This would tally up to a \u00a387.50 charge per week or \u00a3375 if motorists use their car every day.<\/p>\n

However new data from carwow shows one in five (22 percent) of road users were not confident they understood the details of the scheme.<\/p>\n

This could be a blow to thousands of motorists with the RAC predicting 700,000 would be affected by the expansion.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Failure to pay the ULEZ fees will result in drivers being slapped with a \u00a3180 fine, or \u00a390 if paid within 14 days.<\/p>\n

Sally Foote, UK Managing Director at carwow highlighted the confusion around the ULEZ launch as being a major concern to locals.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cMany could be completely unaware of the changes or confused about whether they\u2019ll face them or not.<\/p>\n

\u201cData from our customers just last week highlighted that one in five were still not sure how they\u2019d be affected.<\/p>\n

\u201cNavigating the changes with ULEZ have been far from simple \u2013 motorists have faced months of back and forth.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the Judicial Review to more recent murmurings that Government Ministers may use a little-known legal power to challenge the expansion, to limits on the scrappage scheme to opening it up to all, there\u2019s been a lack of clarity on what\u2019s happening, whether it would actually go ahead and what level of support is available for those needing to change their cars.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nearly half of residents who do not have a non-compliant car are concerned the ULEZ expansion will have an impact on the value of their vehicle.<\/p>\n

Carwow alone claims to have seen a 68 percent increase in customers listing 15+ year-old petrol and diesel cars from London boroughs. However, only one in four says the clean air zone rules had encouraged them to purchase an electric vehicle.<\/p>\n

Foote added: \u201cAs the expansion comes into effect, drivers urgently need to understand the changes and can act if they need to.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re expecting continued ULEZ-related car selling and buying throughout September, as more drivers realise the full extent of the financial impact of the new rules on their day-to-day travel.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor those living and commuting into the zone from the edge of London, some boroughs and councils have so far refused to install ULEZ signage on all of their roads – including Hertfordshire, Surrey and Kent County Councils – meaning that drivers here might be at more risk of get caught-out with the charge.\u201d<\/p>\n
