At which point, it’s a relatively small further step to vary charges by location, time, weight, in the name of fairness. And eventually you’ve arrived by degrees at a sensible comprehensive road user charging scheme.
Which is why I think yesterday’s first step could be hugely significant long term

Yes, it’s odd. Maybe to avoid the shock of “driven all year, now can’t pay the bill”?
If nothing else it should make a future shift to an in-car device that charges as you drive an easier sell! (PAYD, like PAYE)

Thank you! I’ll look into it. Not sure I’d trust myself to do it so neatly…

So annoying, happened to me recently too.

And infuriating that Bosch now have a system that can remotely brick all stolen batteries, but instead they limit it to those paying £40 a year for Flow+ subscription. Making it totally ineffective as a deterrent, *even for those who do pay*
