Make Your Voice Heard
To Ken Livingstone, Mayor of London and Chair of Transport for London, and Ruth Kelly, Secretary of State for Transport:
Large 4 Wheel Drive "Sport Utility Vehicles" are becoming very fashionable. We object to the use of these vehicles in urban areas because they:
- generate emissions at a rate that puts our climate and health at risk
- pose a physical danger to pedestrians, cyclists and drivers of smaller cars
- present a unique problem because of their combination of weight, power and pollution.
We call on you to:
- Reform road tax so that big 4x4s pay more
- Create exclusion zones for 4x4s in urban areas
- Ban 4x4 adverts in the mainstream media on the grounds of public health
- Increase the Congestion Charge in London for the most polluting cars.
Thank you
See what can you do for other ways to help beat the menace of urban 4x4s
