Toll roads are exempted from tolls until 24:00 today
The toll-free policy for toll highways for small passenger cars with seven seats or less will end at 24:00 today. Friends who are driving back today should plan ahead. If you are still driving on the highway as it approaches 24:00, how can you make good use of the free tolls? With the policy, can we return home safely and smoothly?
The free passage of expressways is based on the time when the vehicle leaves the exit toll lane. When the holiday is coming to an end, if your driving time is close to the free period deadline, which is 24:00 on the last day of the holiday on May 5, as long as you get off the expressway during the free period, you will not be charged highway tolls. However, if you exit the expressway beyond the free period, you will be charged for the entire journey.
Get off the expressway from the nearest toll station before the free toll period ends, and enjoy the free toll policy for the previous trip. Then, after getting on the expressway, even if you miss the free toll period, you only need to pay the toll for the journey back to the expressway.
Drivers should try their best to avoid peak traffic congestion periods, and never speed or drive while fatigued for the sake of "stuck points" toll-free periods to avoid accidents, which may result in more losses than gains.
