I'm often driving in and out of London around 7am (I drive my girlfriend to the station so she can go to breakfast networking meetings around town). There are also some confusing bits - a friend told me he got charged for doing a U-turn that took him partly into a congestion zone. He was trying to avoid being in the congestion zone, and wasn't sure whether he did manage to avoid it, but had no way to check (and so ended up penalised). The auto-deducting thing is due to come in in January - until then you have to manually go and pay the charge if you think you should, without any way of knowing whether you should. Considering the bad faith of the system as it is, although I probably will sign up for the auto-deducting system, I am concerned about giving direct access to my bank account to such people.
