More grief for Diesel drivers:

Diesels emitting over 75gms to be banned on some London Streets.

The headline is incorrect. The article relates to both Diesel and Petrol vehicles.

It looks like there is no end to the Diesel problem I saw this MOT comment last week and it looks like the squeeze is now on and getting tough. Over here is the same with daily News on what is being done, proposed or planned - Dave :(

Diesel cars face a tougher MOT test from May as it targets particulate filters in emissions crackdown :

I think it’s time to welcome the upcoming changes to the MOT in the U.K. long overdue in my opinion.

After introducing these new MOT Emission Regulations in May Failures have Doubled in the first 6 months. Gvmdaddy looks like this is working and is really hurting owners - Dave ;)

Interesting figures. Let’s hope it actually has an impact on air quality. If it works then I’m all for it, even if it may hit me in the pocket in future.

Each year there is Guy Fawkes Day UK and here New Years Eve where an almighty amount of Pollution is sent up into the Sky and really makes a mockery of the Emission Problem whether it be Diesel or Petrol and then the proposed City Bans here. Take a read of a Beeb report from last year you just cannot believe what the sky is filled with, OK it is only for one day - Dave ☹️
