Drivers of diesel cars may have to pay more in road tax or face extra charges to travel into city centres in an effort to tackle pollution, according to reports.
Major UK cities are considering low emission zones to force out older diesel vehicles that are responsible for higher levels of fumes, the Times said.
Almost all diesel vehicles driven into central London will trigger a £10 charge under plans being considered by mayor Boris Johnson, who will also reportedly lobby the government to increase road tax on diesel cars to encourage a move to cleaner vehicles.
