Non standard plates and London charges

[swindorski46]

If I'm right in saying that the London congestion charge cameras use number plate recognition, will I also get stung for having "non standard" plates?

If I had them. Which I haven't. I'm asking for a mate. Honest. I wouldn't do that sort of thing. Really. I'll leave now.

no chances are they system wouldent read the plate.

The way I understand it is that the identification is an automated character recognition system. If the OCR system cannot get a read then it is passed to a human operator for a manual read.
