How To: Tolls in Italy!

[@daddyandsonslifeadventures]

This is the best Italy toll booth explanation on KZbin! Thank You soooo much!

[@jkelsey11]

Thank you. Straight to the point and clearly explained.

[@duke_taylor]

Excellent video. That you need a ticket before paying is different from any toll I’ve used before. Very clearly explained. Thanks

[@hwyfan]

That sort of distance based ticket tolling system was until fairly recently used on toll roads such as the Pennsylvania Turnpike, New Jersey Turnpike and New York State Thruway.

Debit card and toll card got me confused first time, I was so angry. Thanks for the vid

[@rafaelrodriguessilva9994]

I passed through one that required no ticket. You just had to pay 2,30. It was from Pompeii to Sorrento. My card didn't work and I only had a 50 euro bill, which was not accepted. After a couple of minutes, the barrier just opened. Do you know if there is a way for me to pay that afterwards?

[@mohammadimostafa7454]

You will get the fine later😂 this happened to one of my friend

[@mahmoudeledrissi7234]

Than you for this awesome tips. God bless you.

[@bscc123]

This was a great video. My husband and I are currently planning our trip. When travelling from Florence to Rome, how much do the tolls cost?

[@Sleepywinston]

I’m not sure but I’m going to guess you could expect to pay between €20-€30!

[@12rsz]

I think you can see such information on Michelin or even Waze most of the time.

[@Lorre982]

The highspeed train is cheaper,

[@terezon]

Where exactly you get yhe ticket? You get it on the highway on ramp? At the toll? If at the toll, where is usually the lane that you get the ticket from? Left, right, middle lane?

[@zyoninkiro]

At the toll station where you first enter the autostrada. If you are starting at the beginning of the autostrada, it will be usually be near the start. If you are entering somewhere in the middle, then the toll station is on the approach road to the on ramp. As you enter, go into the lane marked "Biglietto" to get your ticket. Avoid the yellow signed lanes as those are for Telepass which is the electronic toll collection (ETC) system used in Italy. Telepass exclusive lanes are also marked with yellow chevrons on the payment leading up to them. Ticket lanes are usually the middle and right lanes at the toll stations while Telepass lanes are on the left. After you get your ticket, make sure you get on the correct on-ramp for your direction as the toll stations serve both directions of travel. There will be two large green signs at the split with an arrow indicating which major city is for each ramp.

[@terezon]

Thank you mate, I already went and came back, it was easier than I thought, I drove from Roma to Milano, from Milano to Venezia, I've got used to the toll system quickly.

[@navinkaus]

​@zyoninkiro Once we get the ticket while entering the highway, do we need to scan that ticket while we pay the toll ahead ?

[@zyoninkiro]

@@navinkaus You put the ticket in the machine when you leave the autostrada and based upon your entry point, your toll will be calculated. It's a similar system to the French autoroute system or the old ticket based system on US turnpikes such the Ohio Turnpike and Indiana Toll Road.

[@navinkaus]

@@zyoninkiro Thank you 😊

[@ronmorgan8214]

Mentioned paying with debit card...same as regular credit card?

[@Sleepywinston]

Yes regular credit card should work! Used amex the other day & went right through

[@russelldsyder1344]

Usually Visa and Mastercard are fine. Sometimes, Amex and DC may have problems

[@KhunMike3755]

Well done!

[@deckard1970]

cardless payments are accepted at almost all toll stations actually

[@triphazard2906]

Not sure how it was 2yrs ago when this vid was uploaded, but we used a contactless payment yesterday going between Pisa and Parma

[@faridelfadani6748]

Can we still pay in cash in 2024 I wanna go there this month

[@UpperHandsPiano]

only debit cards? What about credit cards? I would guess credit cards are accepted too, right?

[@Sleepywinston]

Yes credit cards are accepted

[@JerzzyJoe]

can you use a credit card a debit card

[@kierankelleher]

Life saving video! 😂

[@alessandropompa]

Thank you!

[@achilleskocaeli]

thanks.. it was really useful

[@faresar]

Very beneficial. Thank you

[@byronhall5145]

Would it be cheaper to have a telepass account?

[@TheLifeLaVita]

the telepass *generally* are just an automatic ticket payer, to make it so you don't have to stop at the toll, but the ticket is still payed, and you're paying the "telepass fee" as well. Maybe with some promotions you can get a discount or something

[@yuanfurbax]

I hate people that switch lanes every minute that makes no difference in time u/they only annoy evveryone

[@MikeLyson-b9z]

Ahh now I see. My first issue was the system wouldn’t switch to English after pushing the button for that language. Then I didn’t realize the ticket slot is the same slot you insert your credit card. A couple minutes later and after getting honked at by 3 cars, an attendant connected via speaker and I ended up paying with cash. Oh well

[@sjhanksaz]

I thought they take Visa

[@Sleepywinston]

It takes all forms of credit or debit, just no contactless or apple pay

[@stefano4099]

@@Sleepywinston contactless payments are now also accepted

[@Paul-770]

what will happen if don’t pay?😂

[@Vincent-qh7zz]

Mmm

[@nataliazavala3761]
