since april 2016 Belgium has introduced a satellite toll system
Real PITA for larger units.
You get them through a metal booth thing at the start of the motorway on entry.
It's moderately straightforward but you need evidence of euro emission status and weight.
Big bug is €125 for the satellite box then minimum €50 pre pay.
I hope I can get most back on exit - the cost is 70c per km.
Interesting queues of chain smoking east European truck drivers trying to work the Sisyphean system.
Will certainly stop me returning to Belgium I. The near future.. Bruges Christmas market is definitely OFF.
