Sadiq Khan's car tax penalty dropped after a targeted scam
Magistrates originally handed him a £220 penalty in August over an untaxed 2002 Nissan Micra. The DVLA, Britain's driving agency, asked the court to dismiss the prosecution on Thursday because the vehicle actually belongs to someone else. Some drivers angry about the capital's ultra-low emission zone previously threatened to put cars under his name to avoid the £12.50 daily fee.
