Prime Minister Gordon Brown has written to everyone who signed a petition calling for the Government to "scrap all existing and planned tolls, road pricing and congestion charging on UK roads".
The petition, posted on the Downing Street website, was signed by more than 17,000 people after it was set up late last year.
However, Brown chose not to comment on the controversial topics, saying instead "the previous Prime Minister responded in some detail to a petition on this subject last February".
Brown instead sought to clarify the difference between road pricing and tolls. "Tolls are about paying for infrastructure, whereas road pricing, which might take the form of a congestion charge, is about tackling congestion, where too many vehicles want to use the same road space at the same time."
