Malibu Molly and LEZ 2
It's not that I have any intention of going to Brussels but after the previous post I had a look at their LEZ and have booked electronically. Done.

Malibu Molly and LEZ
Unlike the rip-off money grab in London where the socialist anti motor vehicle Stalin charges non compliant £12.50 a day to pay to pollute, the European countries let you apply for a sticker for the front window that allows entry to cities and LEZ areas depending on you level of pollution. France has Crit'Air and we have a class 2 vehicle. Germany has a similar system but it's numbered the other way, so we have a class 4 sticker. This is for a Euro 6(D) vehicle. They both cost less than £5 including postage and last the life of the vehicle!!! Theoretically, in times of high pollution, the city with the LEZ will issue a decree saying which number of sticker is allowed into the LEZ. If the decree, in France, says 2, then 3 and above are banned. Currently Belgium has a free system, but is split into two, with Flanders and Wallonia being separate areas. I have applied for the Flanders one and might try the Brussels one. These are electronic with no sticke...
StickAir - Switzerland
With our 2020 Roadtrip for the summer in the planning stage I set about checking whether or not we would be passing through or near some of the low emission zones (LEZ) in the countries we are planning to visit. Currently the route will go through France, Italy, Switzerland, France again, Belgium and France to channel port. I already have the Crit'Air sticker for France to go in the car later in the year, and once I have found a way of keeping the windscreen clean so that it sticks properly! But what of the other countries? Switzerland seems the most obvious as we will be there for some miles and days. They have a system called StickAir, it looks very much like the French system. At the moment it only covers the area in and around Geneva. We aren't going there. So no need for another sticker! They ought to combine it with the motorway vignette which at 40CHF is a lot of money for a tourist visit. StickAir Switzerland
