Motorcyclists should get consessions for using a less polluting, fuel saving, space saving vehicle.  Just my 2 cents.

After Eastlink did it, it was only a matter of time before Citylink would follow.

Melbourne has always been confusing for us interstate-ers scratch  , some roads have bike free tolls some didn't, at least the confusion is over.

I don't think there was any chance Eastlink were going to drop their charges even though there were compelling reasons (as Hammy mentioned). 

Some small consulation is that without an e-Tag they have to earn their dosh by having to view the film to work out the rego.

I'd think that would be done by computers with plate recognition software.

Embarassed   Yes. Considering all the anti pollution junk that I have taken off my Bandit I must apologise for that comment. Wink
