I don't get why people are moaning about it.

10 euros for 10 day vignette is a bargain, it costs 25 euros to get to paris and back on the french system on a bike.

Apart from that, the roads are in pretty fine order and i don't mind paying for that.

How does the cost compare to the Swiss system?, which is all I can think to compare.

Swiss is about £33 per year, the German system will be much more but then it is probably 20x larger in size.

For tourists, it's cheaper. a week in swiss =£33 annual vignette, germany 10 euros for a 10 day vignette

Wouldn't get too excited yet - only a politicians suggestion so far and we know how great they are.

Also, big hurdle is getting it past the EU, as it suggests in that article.

Also, how do they enforce it? How does it work in Switzerland?

I would like to see that in this country as well. If the German's can do it, Why can't we. Save a bit on tax.
