Can I pay ULEZ a week late?

Once you're driven through the ULEZ zone, you only have three days to pay off the charge incurred from this journey. This payment needs to be made by midnight on this third day. If you miss this payment window, you can increase your charge to a penalty notice, which costs an increased £90 to pay if paid within 14 days.
