Bad series surprises for certain motorists in this school year 2025. The vacationers sometimes trapped by new infrastructure and rules implemented in recent months, with the key one or more tickets to be paid.
240,000 “stunned” free flow
Among these new “traps”: free flow roads that increase in France. Behind this term, a fairly simple principle to understand: the abolition of toll barriers, but not free. This is already the case in parts of the A79 in the Allier, of the A40 in Haute-Savoie, but also and since last December in the A13 and A14, between île-de-Franco and Normandy.
Motorists who take these axes must adjust their trip within 72 hours, online or in a proud Nirio tobacconist. Telepal badges also allow him to be invoiced immediately when the porch passes. For the A13 and the A14, the Société des Authoroutes Du Nord and East de France (Sanef) also allows you to register online to be notified of their passages that must then be paid, or even activate the automatic payment by associating a bank card.
If many panels remember the implementation of this new device, “at least 240,000 motorists have not paid for their trip on time” since the implementation of this free flow system in the A13 and the A14, Note France 3.
A figure that will be put in perspective, which represents less than 1% of users during the period, with 120,000 vehicles per day estimated by the Sanef only in the A13.
As a reminder, the lack of payment results in a payment notice to the address associated with the vehicle registration card.
For a regulation within 15 days after the shipment of this notice, the fine is 10 euros in addition to the toll rate, the Sanef site indicates. Between 15 days and two months, the fine increases to 90 euros, in addition to the price of toll.
Beyond the two months, we go to a fine Ful IV for an amount of 375 euros, applied by the Police Court.
Almost 26,000 soloists in the Parisian periphate
Another recent subtlety to take into account on the road: the shared travel route on the Paris device. From the beginning of March 2025, from Monday to Friday morning (from 7 am to 10:30 am) and at the end of the day (from 4 pm to 8 pm), the left lane of a large part of Peripheh (from Portte de Bercy to the bearing of Sèvres) has been reserved for vehicles with at least two people on board, tax Iglusion).
After an educational period, verbalization was implemented in early May, with a flat fine of 135 euros for criminals. And we have just learned that 25,825 PV had been sent between May 2 and August 31, an article in Parisino indicates, with an average of 366 PV per day during the first months.
In August, there was a better light with less than 4,000 verbalizations, but with quite small traffic. But these new rules still do not seem really integrated: during a count made by Le Parisien on Tuesday, September 9, between 8:30 am and 9:30 am, about one in two cars seemed rape with a person on board.
