This is the new ring road in Athens. I have used it.
2.5 euros for a 30km stretch, irrespective whether you use it up to the next exit or
the whole distance. It's a ripoff system - indicated by the last option.
I guess the German company that won the build competition wants their money
back as soon as possible. After all it's only a 20 year lease. <_<

The "other means" seems like a far too high a price to pay - for anything
The fact that this is in Greece . . . well - add your joke here

Good one, Rudy. Got a laugh out that graphic. Where would a toll tag fit in your poll? Let me know so i can vote for the toll tag. We are billed automatically against an automatic $40 deposit charged to a credit card.

We have "EZ-Pass" here -- there's a transponder mounted on the windshield that is read each time you pass under toll booth. Like your system, you need to maintain $35 in your account via credit card...
(Having said that, I had to vote for the "other" choice. Clearly, this poll wasn't meant to be serious but feel free to vote for whatever choice you wish!)

EZ-Pass is actually used in a bunch of states here in the East.
