anrw Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I have read somewhere that the French Telepeage system (aka Liber-t), the account that provides a transponder that enables you to drive straight through the autoroute peages which charges your credit card on an 'as used' basis, precludes cars ('camping cars') above 2.0 metres high. This would preclude most motor caravans. Has anyone had direct experience of this and is this in fact true? Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAB Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I believe most of the automated payment bays have height barriers hence the restriction - at least I can't recall one without height restrictions. Clive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klyne Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I don't know if this website would be of any use, perhaps just for information as they tend to load the prices if you buy from them! http://www.tolltickets.com/ David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archiesgrandad Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Some big trucks seem to whizz through in the righthand lane, do they have some sort of card system? AGD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Uzzell Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Archiesgrandad - 2010-02-01 11:18 PM Some big trucks seem to whizz through in the righthand lane, do they have some sort of card system? AGD We were on a coach tour in Provence last year and the coach had some sort of electronic system that allowed it to pass though the autoroute toll-points 'automatically'. The coach halted at the barrier, after a short delay there was a loud 'peep' from something at the coach-driver's end of the vehicle and the barrier lifted.
