One Brit has vowed to never use a tunnel again after 103 unsuccessful attempts to pay the toll because the machine ‘didn’t recognise his accent’.
Ivor Rodgers had been heading out to enjoy a lovely holiday in Northumberland with his family, and on his way came to the Tyne Tunnel.
The route utilises an Interactive Voice Response (ICR) technology but Rogers claimed it nearly became the downfall of his holiday after it refused to recognise his accent, ChronicleLive reported.
