answer text

Idling is already against the law. The Highway Code specifies idling in a specific rule and the language used is an indication of the legal requirement to avoid unnecessary engine running. To disobey these rules is to commit a criminal offence. Local authorities are responsible for the enforcement and monitoring of this legislation and already have powers to issue fixed penalty notices (FPNs) to drivers leaving engines running unnecessarily. It is vital that these powers are used to help deal with local air quality issues where necessary.
