They probably reminded them they would save £12.50 per day if they no longer had to drive around there.

"The ULEZ charge is £12.50 per day for most vehicles, including cars, motorcycles, and vans up to 3.5 tonnes. The charge is £100 per day for heavier vehicles"

This is completely incorrect, please don't spread culture-war lies on HN.

The £12.50 charge is for old, polluting cars.

Petrol cars made since around 2005 are exempt, and diesel cars since 2015. Vans from ~2006 and 2016 respectively.

A 2015 car is not old in a world of reduce, reuse, recycle.

It can apply to cars with a £0 VED that were built less than 10 years ago.

It always amuses me when people respond with some completely unrelated personal hobby horse like this. There’s nothing at all in my comment in any way related to driving or congestion fees, not even if you squint a whole lot, and no way in which this comment ties into anything at all I said, even if I squint a whole lot.
