int ihour,imin,ohour,omin,hour,min;
char ctype;
cout<<"Please enter your vehicle type (Bus=b, Van=v, Car=c, Truck=t) ";
cout<<"\nVehicle type : ";
cin>>ctype;
if (ctype=='b'||'c'||'v'||'t'){} // it let any work bypass,'a' can go through here
else{
cout<<"Error, The vehicle type is only available for bus,car,van and truck(b,c,v,t)";
return 0;
}

That's because your if statement is wrong. This is how it should look like -
if (ctype == 'b' || ctype == 'c' || ctype == 'v' || ctype == 't')
First use code tags when posting code.
Next you can't combine logical operators as you have done. You need a complete comparison for each operator:
