Routeplanner and navigation app suggestion: avoid different roads in each country
-
Perhaps this is a good time to make some suggestions for the new planner 2.0, which is being prepared for next year. IMO there would be good to have a possibility to set different rules for each country - mainly avoid or not paid roads. For example in Slovakia we can drive all roads for free but in Hungary there is an obligatory vignette for motorcycle. I know, there are segments, but not for Here maps, so I always need to put additional waypoints. Maybe it would be possible to create a simple table of all countries you are currently travelling through and set the rule separately? It would have to work in both parts - the planner and navigation one.

@Stanisław, In Austria and Switzerland there are also vignets for cars and motorbikes. I usually just by the vignet, even if I do not plan to drive highways. You never know when the need to drive highways occurs after all. Things happen underway...
From a planners perspective I think features like that are complicating factors.
I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

@Stanisław I love the idea, this could also incorporate speed limits. As an example, with my caravan (actually, it is a mini camper, means a trailer and not a caravan in common sense) I am allowed to drive 100 km/h in Germany, but not in Denmark only 80 km/h (unless I have a Danish 100 km/h permit), in Sweden also only 80 km/h as well as in many other countries. There are variations on how fast I am allowed to drive, so instead of making changes to my general settings for the max. speed, when I cross borders, this could be done on the per country setting

@Con-Hennekens This is another topic, depends on personal preferences. For example in Switzerlad there is only annual vignette for about 40 EUR, I don't want to pay it if I am planning only one day across this country. It could be also useful for roads type, in Hungary there is nothing special and many speed cameras so I would rather go by highways but before, in Slovakia, I would prefer avoiding highways because of bueatuful views. This is only an example.

@Stanisław, Switzerland was an exception on my travels too
It is not even an annual vignette, it is until the end of the year + january...
