How does that relate to participants in the London to Brighton run?


This para relates...
"There is no intention to target cars with the proposed LEZ."


Even if it was to target cars, surely a one-off special vintage car event

Not as if they are planning to run around the city in circles for a week.

Besides a lot of those vintage/veteran cars are probably better on the
emission front than many newer cars, simply 'cause their owners look after
them properly....
