M6 toll, good news

But they're no less able to use the normal M6
If people don't like the M6 toll, why the meanness of
spirit in deflecting the anger onto the disabled? If they
get a good deal,
good luck to them. If you don't like the toll, tell your
MP.
It's not "deflection of anger". I personally don't care
much either way if the M6 relief is toll or not. If I'm
heading that way, I may well use the toll road. I also have
a blue badge in the car for my mother-in-law (and no, I
don't abuse it), in a wheelchair with MS.
I just don't see the point.
If a disabled driver's using that route, then I don't see
the need for a discount. If they need the time benefit,
then great, they're probably doing it for business, so can
pay. If they don't need the time benefit, then fine. Use
the "old" M6.
Why not address these questions to the company concerned?
