About Course

Some tolls no longer have booths. At the Dartford Crossing and the Mersey Gateway bridges you drive straight through and must pay separately, by a deadline, or face a fine. This course explains how each of the main tolls works, how to pay on time through the official channels, what happens if you forget, and how to avoid fake payment websites and texts.

Tutwoo is an independent learning provider. This course gives general information based on official toll operator and GOV.UK pages checked in November 2026. Charges and payment methods change, so always check the official website before you travel.
