And if it was about a toll bridge the other end of the country I'd
probably have ignored/forgotten it already.


So as a mature adult who's lived all over the country you can't name
all of the tolled parts of trunk roads in the UK then.

I don't believe you


When I used the Dartford Crossing about three months ago (for the first
time in years) I had no idea if it was still tolled, and if so what the
charging arrangements were. It was cheaper than I was expecting (for a
tolled road, I'd have been just as happy if it had been free).

The M6 Toll is admittedly well known, and I have a vague recollection
that the Humber, Severn and Forth bridges are tolled (none of which I've
used in the last 20+ years). Beyond that... nothing.


tim's assertion upthread is of course quite daft.
