Most of these new additions are no big deal. A good few of them have already been in place here for years.
Some I'm amazed havent been on the mainland MOT.
But it is only a matter of time before the re-work the entire system to make everything illegal, until we pay a fine to make it legal.
Some of the changes regarding CEL lights etc could render perfectly good and safe cars beyond economical repair.
Perhaps it's just more of their strategy to keep their road network only for those who are prepared to pay the most.
Whether in road/fuel taxes, or fines for the privilege of getting to pay to use the roads.
