Tyne Tunnel campaigner demands more action after 11,000 fines cancelled in two months

A Tyne Tunnel campaigner insists further action is needed after bosses cancelled more than 11,000 fines handed out to drivers in just two months.

Local activist Gary Spedding set-up a petition on the turn of the year, demanding change for the 'distress and financial hardship caused by the penalty fines being issued by TT2 Limited' following the introduction of a new cashless system.

More than 140,000 financial penalties have been issued since implementing the changes, with furious drivers launching a petition against the overhaul of the payment system.
