Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
As published
36 Further provision as to charging of tolls.
(1) A toll order may contain provision exempting from liability for tolls such descriptions of traffic as may be specified in the order.

(2) A toll order shall contain provision exempting from liability to pay any toll—
(a) a police vehicle, identifiable as such by writing or markings on it or otherwise by its appearance, if being used for police purposes;
(b) a vehicle which is exempt from vehicle excise duty under—
(i) paragraph 4 (fire engines),
(ii) paragraph 6 (ambulances),
(iii) paragraph 18 (invalid carriages),
(iv) paragraph 19 (vehicles for use by or for purposes of certain disabled people), or
(v) paragraph 20 (vehicles used for carriage of disabled people by recognised bodies),
of Schedule 2 to the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994.
(3) A person authorised to charge tolls may, subject to the provisions of the order—
(a) suspend the collection of tolls;
(b) enter into agreements under which persons compound in advance, on such terms as may be agreed, for the payment of tolls;
(c) charge different tolls according to—
(i) the distance travelled; or
(ii) the day, time of day, week, month or other period; and
(d) charge different tolls for different descriptions of traffic.
In the case of a concessionaire the powers mentioned above are exercisable subject to the provisions of the assignation.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
