You can get stuck in② a traffic jam anywhere in the world. The worst problems occur③ in cities which are growing fast④， such as⑤ Sao Paolo in Brazil and Lagos in Nigeria. But even cities in developed countries⑥ such as the US suffer⑦. Los Angeles, which was built with the motor car in mind⑧， and is famous for⑨ its six-lane highways, is now the USAs most congested⑩ city. In Europe most capital cities were planned and built before cars, and city centre traffic jams have been part of? daily life for a long time. The situation in central London, where drivers spent fifty percent of their time in queues?， became so bad that? the local government decided to do something about it. In February 2003 the Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, introduced a “congestion? charge”—a tax for cars entering the centre of the city?.

Drivers can pay the charge at any of 10,000 pay points? in the capital before 10 pm. As the cars come into the centre?， video ca
