UK drivers wrongly fined for Dartford Crossing journeys due to ANPR errors amid new system issues.

UK drivers are receiving fines for unpaid journeys on the Dartford Crossing despite never using it, due to Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras mistakenly identifying vehicles with similar licence plates. This issue is part of a wider problem with the Dart Charge system, which switched to a new provider in July 2023. National Highways states that penalty charges can be cancelled if contacted by customers.
