Truck tolls Europe – is a topic of constant interest for all carriers transiting various countries of the continent.
One of the priorities of fleet managers is to pay all the taxes that the company they manage is subject to. In addition to the financial obligations necessary for the car fleet, there are other costs that must be taken into account, more precisely the road taxes related to the countries that the vehicles transit.
Their payment is directly proportional to the distances traveled, depending on the types of roads traveled (motorways, national roads) or the CO2 emissions class of the vehicle.
The most important ways of paying tolls are:
- Road tickets, which can be purchased online or at customs points of sale or gas stations
- Equipping vehicles with OBU (On Board Unit) equipment
Europe has twice as many kilometers of toll roads as the US, and countries such as Italy and France have toll roads only.
