Default "Toll Roads" set to "Dislike" will not avoid Toll BRIDGES (!)


Gazoo, over at The Truckers Report, gives his feedback on the functionality of the "Preferred Roads" feature in Microsoft Streets & Trips.

100% Microsoft's fault? No, but a pretty good portion of it.

I was up in Mass today, routed a trip back to NJ using ST&T '07. I wanted the cheapest route, IE: NO TOLLS!!! It routed me away from all toll "roads" but not all toll BRIDGES!!!

$72 later and I am friggin broke.
It's not a big deal for a small vehicle, but it seems it can be quite expensive for an operator of a large truck.
