Some privately operated toll roads in England have enforcement powers similar to local authorities, but motorists may not have access to a fully independent appeals process.

We believe motorists should have the same right to independent adjudication as for local authority penalties.

The Government should require these operators to join an approved tribunal scheme, such as the Traffic Penalty Tribunal, to ensure fairness and consistency.
