For Londoners, from 29 August 2023, the city will be expanding its Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) in an attempt to reduce the impact transport emissions are having on the air quality in the capital. Drivers who enter the ULEZ at any time will beobliged to pay a fee of £12.50 per day.
However, certain vehicles are exempt from this charge – including all fully electric cars. It can be all too easy for drivers to inadvertently enter the congestion charge zone or ULEZ, and forget to pay the charge. But this bad habit can result insome costly penalties. In fact, the penalty charges have increased in value to £180.
Even though electric vehicle drivers don’t have to necessarily concern themselves with these zones, it’s still important to be a responsible driver and get into good, safe habits when on the road.work, but time soon runs away from us and we suddenly realise a quick stop at the forecourt will make you even later.

Engine idling is the act of leaving your car’s engine running while stationary. The Highway Code states that if you expect to be stationary for more than a couple of minutes, you should switch the engine off and apply the parking brake. If you don’
It’s a bad habit for drivers of traditional petrol and diesel cars to adopt since it can cause unnecessary harm to the environment and can also be detrimental to the engine. When EVs are on the road, they don’t emit any toxic emissions, meaningengine idling isn’t as much of a problem for the environment.
But it’s worth remembering that idling in an EV can use up electrical energy since the car’s system will still be active, so it’s always advisable to switch off when stationary.

Cotton, leather and wool are "oil based"?
