In the theme of all great Fairy Tales, ‘once upon a time’ the government-affiliated Ministry of Transport conducted then, and so to this present day, approved road-worthiness vehicle tests – until some control freak elected local borough officials, with sweet fuck all better to pass their thumb-twiddling time - decided to ignore the established MOT standard and arbitrarily penalise vehicles over a certain vintage – based on age - and ‘not’ exhaust emissions.
This fascist policy needs to be challenged in a top court of law by a canny barrister, based on the above facts.
Ergo, so WTF goes on with Sad Dick Khan's London metropolitan area ULEZ scam - and now bonny Nonceland’s copy-cat LEZ penalties, targeting Glassie, Dundee, Scaberdeen, and Edinburgh – when we have a decades-long and established annual MOT examination system in operation across Broken Britain - for all road vehicles once their ‘newness’ polish wears off – that checks for all mechanical road worthiness- including excess engine exhaust emissions – and thus, if passed, can – or rather ‘could’ - drive anywhere, on any British highway, or within any British city boundaries - sans restriction, censure or penalty?
Yep, just smell
the air – and the money-grubbing stench of bureaucratic corruption viz the
interpretation of these arbitrary 2001 / 2005 / Euro 6 standards; whereas 'classic' pre-1973
smoke belchers are exempt.
To wit, if,
based on the age of the vehicle it is automatically assumed that at this point,
and past such, any vehicle will become a smoke belcher, then the annual MOT
test for exhaust emissions is rendered null and void – and all vehicles hence
consigned to the knacker’s yard and scrap heap – unless the hapless owner is of
a mind to splurge a pretty penny – or two - on engine refurb’s - and a cat’
converter.
