After successfully introducing barrier pricing, London Mayor Ken Livingston now wants to adjust that charge based on a variable scale for emissions, in order to reduce greenhouse gases in the city.
The most expensive category for SUVs would run almost $50 per day!

So all those little silly scooters that all those “mod” kids ride around on from the late 50s and 60s will cost about $500-600.00 a day eh! That’s awesome!! :)

I guess that depends whether the fee is based purely on carbon emissions, which is pretty directly linked to how much gasoline you consume, or other types of smog-forming and/or harmful emissions.

In Europe? I bet they’re illegal anyways. The vast majority of scooters over there are brand-spanking new 4-stroke variety that put out very low emissions.
It’s different over here, of course – but then EVERTYHING is grandfathered into the emissions testing, too.
