Either use Custom Avoidances like Joe said
Avoidances.JPG

or use the created .gpx file for doing so.

But ja, wat kan ek sê, then CN creates an route like this! :roll: :cry:

There are no easy ways to avoid the etoll gantries.I use a variation of what Joe did. Whenever the need arises to visit sin city I plan my routes using the Gpx file Frans created with the E toll Ganties a POI. I use via points to force the GPS to Avoid those highways where gantries are installed .

Eureka,
On today's run to Baragwanath, I skipped all the E-tolls. From there to Carnival Mall skipped all again. The latter was not planed on Mapsource.
Thanks Joe for the Toll.rar I incorporated it into my way-points.
As to CN, I've got LM and for SAA the last one. The only reason I use CN is when I enter the city boundaries for the speed limit warnings and lane assistance. Contrary to all reprimands, I often use the two map sources simultaneous, without ill efects and I did so today. Thank you all for your appreciated help. :grin:
