This was the system on the French AutoRoutes when I was over there a   
few years back. No I-Pass; they just issued a paper receipt which you   
presented at the next window to pay. It had the time of printing   
stamped on  it. Between the toll plazas, which were about 30 KM apart,   
were wonderful roadside parks with benches etc. The prevailing method   
of driving was to go like Godzilla was right behind you, then pull   
into les parc for a Gauloise. Once the requisite amount of time had   
elapsed you resumed driving absolutely flat out all the way to the   
next toll plaza.
