Many people know that highways in the United States are free, and their highways do not toll. In fact, there are two places in China that do not toll. I believe many people have experienced it. These two free highways in my country are popular tourist places, allowing everyone to feel the benefits of free highways, at least they can save some tolls.

These two places are Hainan. Hainan has several expressways such as the Ring Road, the mid-line expressway, and their expressways have not tolled for a long time, so when you run on the Hainan highway, you won’t see a toll station. Of course, there are no toll stations in the national highway, which is the first in China. You may think that Hainan is really so rich and powerful, so why doesn’t Hainan’s highways charge for ?

As early as 1994, Hainan integrated the "four fees" of road maintenance fees, road transportation management fees, , tolls, and bridge fees, and canceled the expressway toll stations. Hainan became the earliest province in the country to have no expressway toll stations. Although Hainan Expressway does not charge, it is actually a method in the United States to collect the surcharge of fuel surcharge for for motor vehicles. As long as you drive, you are paying the fee. What does mean?

Hainan is spread to the oil fee, which means that the tolls are all in the crude oil surcharge, so the oil price in Hainan is a little more expensive than that in mainland cities. The more you drive, the higher your oil money will be. If you just add fuel to the mainland and come here to drive, you can at least save a little money. Although driving is less expensive, it is always a bit unprofitable for people who don’t drive. The oil price is a bit high, and it is also the same oil price if you don’t take the expressway.

Another place in China where highways do not charge for the toll is Tibet. There are several highways in Tibet, all of which are free to pass. Unlike the expressways in Hainan, Tibet is a truly free expressway, and there is no surcharge for motor vehicles, so there is no such thing as highway fees added to fuel costs. This is the difference between Tibet Expressway and Hainan.

However, just like Hainan, no matter whether you take the expressway or not, the oil price in Tibet is a little more expensive than other provinces and regions, because the oil here in Tibet is transported from other provinces and regions, so the cost is higher. When driving on the highway in Tibet, there are fewer cars on the way. It feels very comfortable to drive here. The scenery on both sides is beautiful, which is really a pleasure.

Tibet Expressways are all invested and built by the state, and they use taxpayers' money, not loans to build roads. This is also the country's support for the development of Tibet. The Hainan Expressway, which does not toll, is indeed a bit unfavorable for people who don’t drive much. Whether you take the expressway or not, you still have to add fuel. Some people say they would rather charge the expressway than add fuel to the gas money, but I believe it is also a little cheaper than tolls. What do you think?
