Interestingly, in London’s case we do not get this particular benefit from the congestion charge zone, because congestion charging ends at 6pm! So all the boys eager to show off their hot, loud cars still show up on a Friday or Saturday night.

- graemep 1y agoLondon is a pretty good city for walking around and public transport. When I lived in London (pre congestion charge) I used to walk for pleasure a lot simply because I enjoyed it. I think road design and good public transport have improved it (although reliability could be better sometimes) since then. I do not agree with all the changes over the years, but net its great. Lots of expensive cars but never really noticed the loud revving.
