Hi Paul!
Just checked quickly about toll being free for disabled and that is WRONG so your friends will pay just the same!Only the badge is free(and for the french only) to get throught the T Toll, but you still have to pay the toll.


Safe travel in any case!

Slightly off topic when we were on tha Aire in Honfluer there was a Belgium couple and they did not have to pay the 7e for parking because the wife was a blue badge holder..

some tolls charge class 1 for blue badge holders .but you have to ask .vans are charged at class 3 i believe .
France autoroute tolls, French motorway charges, autobahn, autostrada, autopista fees and costs.

just show your badge and smile sweetly,
doesn't apply to all areas - don't think it works for bridges f'rinstance - but they will tell you.
You get a lower rate as stated above
also get some free parking - as in the UK - but doesn't apply everywhere - also as in the UK - so check the signs,
