AutoPass for Toll Roads

By backpackguru (Photographic Voyage) on Nov 20, 2011 in Intercity Transportation
Norway, consistent with its expensive nature, has many tollways throughout the country. If you're going to be driving yourself around, consider researching the AutoPass program. You can register your license plate number for the time you'll be in the country and prepay for kr 300 worth of tolls. The card will directly hit you're bank account when you go over the initial amount. You do get any of your remaining balance within 90 days of the end of your trip. This allows you to bypass manual payment and speed along through the tolls. There are a few tollbooths that don't yet accept AutoPass, bus the vast majority do. It's worth it if you're planning to drive around a lot.
