Boris, The paperwork I was sent with the Telepeage box, although a few years ago now  , stated that under 2m was Classe 1 and that was all the box was allowed to be used for.
I wonder if you use the truck lane if you get charged truck prices?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Boredsurfing, Don't think the scanners pick upo the vehicle itself. I have a severn tag, same thing as telepeage, and it is linked to the calss of vehicle not vehicle itself, you can go through any lane.

Boris, I always thought that 2m+ was class 2 and charged differently. Maybe they've started cracking down.

snowskisnow, as far as I can tell, looking back at our telepeage statements, we have only been charged Class 1 tolls, for our similarly sized 4x4 plus roofbox.

As Helen Beaumont, says if you go through the <2m lanes always Class 1 charge.
Helen Beaumont, will also confirm that all the <2m lanes are slightly over 2m .... but that doesnt stop her ducking  Mine is 1.93m plus roof bars (when fitted_ ... not hit one nor rattled the chains .... yet

Agenterre, I reckon the >2m sign is actually at about 2.7m?

thefatcontroller, Not sure but I suspect so .. I also drive under 2.20m metre stuff ( car parks etc) and they always seem much more intimidating ie lower..

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

thefatcontroller, It's a good game at the Tunnel to see if you can drive under the 1.80 without ducking

You know it makes sense.

Boredsurfing, Wouldn't dream of going for the 1.8m, the car with suspension lowered is 1.87m

It would appear they were using the truck lane  and getting charged a truck price by the CC machine
When going to a manned booth, got charged Class 1
We always go to manned booth and I guess just been lucky that they take the view we are in a car

Boris, That must be the reason you don't see many cars in the truck lane!

Boredsurfing, it's there first time driving - they weren't to know
I do kind of feel sorry for them seeing one of them fell and broke collar bone yesterday - no more skiing for them
