There is a congestion charge in London inside certain areas, but this is only in the very central part of London. You pay it if you enter the area.

No congestion charges outside London
NYC was trying to do that also which would reduce traffic. People who own cars and live in the city most be nuts. Because between car insurance and gas it doesn't make sense.
Well it is double for one of those and very much not for the other! You said double or triple, not remotely triple and maybe double if you choose your locations.

There are places in the UK cheaper than what we are paying - not far of California prices at around $6 per US gallon.

Completely agree it was a bigger difference before, but shows we have been less affected by the war / not war.
California is trying to tax the amount of miles you drive. 😂 I don't know if it will pass but I find it hilarious that people put up with it. Next the State might tax married couples for having sex.😅

Well, this is what they are going to do in my country as well. Now we pay vehicle tax based on the weight of the car. In 2 years or so they will tax the car based on how much you drive.

Pence per mile is being mooted here but fuel tax does the same thing.

My son lives in Tokyo and you can't have a car there without confirmed off street parking. Public transport is so good there really isn't any need however.
