How to map toll restrictions
- Mark a road segment as a toll segment only: Need to verify if this is true still
- The segment is an entrance to a road where there is a toll booth, transponder reader, or other tolling device
- Do not mark the toll restriction for segments that lead up to the final toll segment even if they have no other exit except the final toll segment
- Do not mark the individual transponder locations along the length of the toll road
Note Waze assigns a large penalty for each road segment marked with a toll restriction if a user has avoid toll roads selected. Marking each toll booth/transponderfor segment would route the user off at each exit if the user does not understand the setting selections. |
