Given how many people are getting fined for being on the road without

There is no road tax to pay on electric cars.

Irrelevant to whether it can't be that easy to avoid the APNR cameras.

There is a network of small lanes in most places in the UK.
Easy to circumvent any particular spot for a local person.
ie cameras.
My Dad used the same principle when he stuck windows in an Anglia van
circa 1960 which potentially made it liable for purchase tax or
something like that. Meant we never took that vehicle to town
in case it was spotted or had a prang.
But without another car it would have been awkward.
Are you suggesting that an Electric car user can hide the use of the
vehicle by just driving around to the village shop, that is hardly
going to make them a mass market item in the places where they will
work best in towns and suburbs. And with tracking technology
available should the authorities require it to be fitted there will be
few places to hide.
Any how there various ways to apply a charge , eg miles beetween MOT
checks and then pay up. Onus on vehicle owner to prove what wasn't ona
public road.

Being thick again!
I have no need to do such thing at the moment as there is no tax to pay and in any case there is no such taxation system run by cameras.

But if there were, it would be easy to evade it.
And no-one could ever prove you had deliberately evaded it.
