Yes indeed, it is an excellent toy. But the UK motorist pays more than the French motorist - the monthly handling fee (only charged when used) is higher for the units purchased in the UK.

There is no choice about it, as it seems all UK based drivers will have to move to the UK sourced devices in the next year or so.

And remember - if the roads are very busy you may not avoid queues, if the T lane has a queue you will be caught up in it, just this lane will move more quickly than the other lanes.

Yeah but its worth it as the roads are so much better. Plenty of Aire's unlike the UK and the roads are so much smoother. At least you get what you pay for and dont forget fuel is cheaper. WE were paying e1.26ltr for diesel in the Pyrenees equivelent to £1.06 lts whereas at home I'm paying £1.42 ltr

Now over 12000 miles @26mpg average fuel will cost me £691.46 less per year so i always think the tolls and the fuel about balance each other out ! so If I actually did 20 k per year the figures speak for themselevs ! 500-1000 year in tolls is still good value as long as the fuel stays cheaper.

There are various detours you can do to travel on different routes where there are no charges
