More surprisingly, when she was finally able to leave the highway, the barriers were closed. Result, and as usual, Nadia had to pay the 8 euros toll. “I pressed the button to report my dissatisfaction, but nothing could be done: I had to pay a little more than 8 euros and I was advised to file a complaint. I find that shameful !”she still complains, directly targeting the APRR manager (Autoroutes -Rhin-Rhône).

Nadia's case is not an isolated case. Since motorists going in the other direction also had to pay the fare for the trip after more than 4 hours of immobilization.
