Do all ANPRS read for ULEZ/ LEZ?
Discussion
Or fit a stealth covering so they cant read it.
Of course that would be illegal.

I only used it for an ex-employer so I could park in the staff car park without getting an email from the parking nazis when I was using it on my non-parking days. Worked a treat.

I'm really surprised tbat website is allowed to exist unless the powers that be know it doesn't work and are using the site as a honeypot and are tracking those who puchase from it.Of course that would be illegal.

The best way is to register for Autopay, it debits your account when you pass any of their cameras, if you don't pass any of the cameras you won't get charged.
Cameras are often situated on large main roads and bridges
I wouldn't mind doing this if it was £12.50 like ULEZ but the LEZ is £100 a day Cameras are often situated on large main roads and bridges
If you're 'just' on the inside of the south circular there's a high probability you'll be able to avoid it if you're just travelling straight out of the zone. There will be cameras on every roundabout for the a406 though, it's easier to set up.
I've driven hgvs around London for years so have to deal with all of the night time lorry bans and the lez when it first came in and the cameras aren't 100% reliable, there are still routes around them and new drivers regularly take the wrong route and aren't picked up by the cameras.

Thanks. This is the sort of info I’m after. I’m just on inside of new wider LEZ and there are small road routes in and out. Just good to know that they’re not on all traffic lights and not all cameras read. If it’s just the major routes then that’s ok.

Still a risk but calculated.

I'd question whether they work. If you can see the number plate, then so can a regular camera.. Of course that would be illegal.
If the systems alert vehicles which failed to get a plate and there is an operator who checks a visible-light camera then yes the product would be useless. For fully-automated ANPR on open car parks it would probably work well!

Most ANPR cameras have an infra-red lamp used to get maximum contrast from the plate, otherwise the software can struggle. Also it enables the systems to work at night.

Indeed. If the systems alert vehicles which failed to get a plate and there is an operator who checks a visible-light camera then yes the product would be useless. For fully-automated ANPR on open car parks it would probably work well!
There isn’t much follow up from an employers car park. I suspect if you used this day in day out on the public road it would eventually end in some pain .
Most ANPR cameras are totally automated and use the IR spectrum . If they don’t see a plate then it waits until it does see one.
Some good YouTube videos of them and how they work.
