What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A flux libre toll road system is operational in regions including Normandy and Moselle, utilizing cameras to monitor passage on specific motorways. Drivers must pay independently within 72 hours of passage. If payment is late, a fine notice is sent to the registered address, with surcharges applied based on the payment timeline.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The system covers key routes such as the A13 and A14 between Paris and Normandy, and sections in Moselle. Critics argue the limited payment window and lack of reminders lead to an unnecessarily high number of fines. Late-payment fees collected in 2025 amounted to €25 million for the operator.
