Beat the proposed road-charge scheme.

If you don’t already know, Britain is planning to introduce a road charge scheme which will replace the current road tax scheme. A satellite will track how many miles you do and you’ll be charged accordingly.
Some bright spark has come up with a great little idea to scupper these plans with a £700 GBP illegal gadget that jams monitoring signals. It works in the same way that a Stealth Bomber can be undetected on radar and experts are showing concern about them.
Before you go and buy one, you can get up to 2 years inside for having one!
The alarming thing is that car thieves could also use the gadget to overcome anti-theft tracking systems, which activate when a vehicle is stolen.
The Department for Transport said its road-pricing scheme will be introduced only when ‘we can find technology that is robust against attack’.
