    Motorists across Britain could make savings of over £10 per trip by activating a particular feature on their mobile device. Switching on this Google Maps function may help you sidestep unnecessary charges. Many drivers now depend on digital mapping systems or satellite navigation when embarking on lengthy trips or venturing to unfamiliar destinations. Beyond simply preventing you from losing your way, this technology can also help you circumvent toll roads and bridges. These are routes that levy a charge for passage. Approximately 20 such toll roads and bridges exist throughout Britain. Charges differ considerably, with the M6 toll ranking amongst the priciest. For a standard car travelling along all three segments of this motorway, the fee currently stands at £10.50. Vans face higher charges whilst motorcyclists benefit from reduced rates. To ensure you dodge such fees, you can opt to "avoid toll roads" within your navigation application. For many drivers, this involves adjusting preferences on the Google Maps app installed on their smartphone.
