Additional Google Maps application The Google Maps application has just added two useful features for users, including directions to avoid toll booths and estimate the total amount to be paid when passing through toll booths .
To make it easier for users to estimate the cost of long-distance trips, the Google Maps map application has just added two useful new features.
The first is a feature that displays the number of toll stations on the route that users will travel and the total cost they will have to pay when following that route. Previously, Google Maps had the feature to notify users of the location of toll stations on the route they were going to travel, but did not display detailed information about the price to pay when passing through the stations. this.

Google said it will collect reliable information about toll booths from the authorities to show the most accurate price information possible.
Currently, Google has updated this feature for the Maps application on both Android and iOS platforms. However, only users in the US, India, Japan and Indonesia can use this feature. Google said it will equip new useful features for users in other countries as soon as possible.
A second useful feature Google brings to the Maps application is the ability to find your way around toll booths.
With this feature, when searching for a certain route to move, Google will display a few more options to avoid having to go through toll booths. Of course, if the route through the toll booth is the only way or all routes have toll stations, the new feature of Google Maps cannot find an alternative solution.
This feature is now available on the Google Maps application version for Android, iOS and users in Vietnam can use it.

For example, when users find their way to go from Hanoi to Da Nang, Google Maps will offer options for routes to go through or avoid toll booths. However, one thing to note, usually the routes that pass through the toll station will be easier to go and have a shorter travel time than the routes that avoid the toll station. Therefore, users need to consider choosing the right route.g navigation feature to avoid toll stations
