Re: More than a million drivers fined after Dartford Bridge payment change
 
I realise that. I also realise that the booth operators would probably not have had access to the DVLA database so would be unable to look it up. I just included that as an example of technology not necessarily being better than humans. In the case of the Dartford Crossing, as you say, anyone with a car not registered in this country would have to pay at the booth.

You don't have to buy a return, it charges per crossing

That's interesting, sure we got a leaflet through which said you had to get a return, perhaps they changed their minds

I have used this crossing late at night, and my god. When you pay the money, sometimes, the coins go through and don't register. Therefore you are stuck.

In reality, if you are crossing a major river then you have no choice, but if you are on the M25 you are stuffed.

you pay as you use it, you only have to pay for the return journey
if you are going back the way you came.
which is not necessarily the case
