Posted on 03/01/2023 16:49 by SteveLUnfortunately YT the same restrictions apply to Bip & Go as Emovis. Looking at them they all seem to be linked, just differently badged.
I drive a vehicle that is heavier than 3.5 metric tons and/or taller than 3m. Can I use Bip&Go electronic toll payment?
Bip&Go only offers electronic toll payment badges for light vehicles. For lorries, buses and category 3 or 4 campervans, you will need an electronic toll payment badge for heavy vehicles.If you are a professional, you can subscribe with Eurotoll (company from the Sanef group).

Don’t worry. An autoroute roll booth can measure whether your vehicle is over the 3 metre height limit, it can count how many axles you have, and it can tell whether or not you are towing - but frankly the toll booth has no way of weighing your motorhome to see it is 3.5 tonnes or has been uprated to 3.85 tonnes. It will pass.

When we toured abroad we found having a Tag made life a lot easier especially as more of the exits off the autoroute are now unattended. It will depend on how much you are travelling in the countries involved. We often spent a couple of months touring all over France so the Tag was an easy option. When we got the motorhome it was even better as Margaret found it difficult when it came to paying at an attended booth because of the higher position. I quite liked the Emovis system as well, direct payment from you bank account rather than to a credit card which you have to remember to update when you get a new card.

We got the Tag due for the same reasons-if you can reach to pay without too much trouble that's fine, but if you cant its a right pain to the extent that I would have to get out and do it, and all the time seeing the trucks one had passed sail through!
Its never happened to me, but I know people who have damaged towing mirrors and vans in the course of getting "just a bit closer".
We only used one very short section of toll this year and did fleetingly wonder if it was worth keeping the Tag-but soon decided, all things considered, it is!
