Default CONGESTION CHARGE

Paul Weaver ) gurgled happily, sounding much like they
were saying :

Why? Half past midnight isn't "live" charge-time.


No, but if he leaves it on the public road for 24 hours it will be
parked in the charge time.


But it was explicitly stated it wouldn't be.

Since the car isn't on the road inside the charge zone at charge-time,


If he parks in the railway yard.


Which was explicitly stated...

if i was working nights on the railways and drove into
the charge zone at 00.30 on a tuesday morning, parked up in a railway
yard and drove out again at 00.30 on the weds morning?


24 hour night shifts sound like a killer though


Indeed. But maybe there's an extended rest period at the other end of a
rail journey?
