Truckers criticize app issue and missing boxes: Here is the authorities’ response<\/p>\n

Backordered toll booths, a broken ticketing system and a half-finished app platform – the new toll system has been heavily criticized, but here are the explanations from Sund & B\u00e6lt<\/div>\n<\/header>\n

The run-in difficulties have been great for the new toll for trucks, and along the way, Sund & B\u00e6lt has been the target of criticism of the toll system from hauliers and industry organizations.<\/p>\n

Recently, Lastbil Magasinet has featured several cases where hauliers are wondering about some very specific gaps in the introduction of the new road tax.<\/p>\n

\n

For example, we could tell you about ‘Niels Flyttemand’ who had to park one of his trucks<\/a> because he couldn’t get a box from Brobizz and there is no payment app for Android phones. He also experienced problems with the date module when buying day tickets, as the date in question simply did not exist in the system. <\/p>\n

As recently as today, Friday, Lastbil Magasinet publishes another example with Akut Milj\u00f8 Service<\/a>, which also wonders about not being able to get a payment box delivered – and that four months into the toll there is no toll app for Android, so the haulier had to buy new iPhones for all his trucks.<\/p>\n

Lastbil Magasinet has presented Sund & B\u00e6lt with the criticism and a number of questions. Here are the unedited questions and the answers we received from Sund & B\u00e6lt: <\/b><\/p>\n

What is the current delivery time if you order a toll payment box?<\/i><\/p>\n

Existing orders for boxes are expected to be delivered by week 20. From mid-June, Brobizz expects to have a delivery time of approximately 10 days for all orders.<\/p>\n

What has been the reason for the very long delivery times for BroBizz toll boxes so far? (other suppliers such as Telepass report much shorter delivery times) <\/i><\/p>\n

Interest in getting a satellite box from Brobizz has been very high. Naturally, this is positive, and Brobizz has continuously ordered more boxes to meet the demand. The original deadline for guaranteed delivery of boxes before Christmas was September 1, 2024. Brobizz managed to secure boxes for all orders received before December 9. To meet the continued high order intake, Brobizz has ordered another larger batch of boxes exclusively for future orders. This batch is expected to be received in mid-June. <\/p>\n

Is there any prospect of shorter delivery times?<\/i><\/p>\n

Yes, Brobizz expects to have 10 days delivery time from mid-June onwards<\/p>\n

In the event of a system error\/calendar error in the payment system like the one described above, how should a haulier handle this in order to be able to carry out his transports without being fined for missing tolls? <\/i><\/p>\n

\n

In the case of an error that affects many or all users, fines will be stopped or canceled for the period during which the error has existed. If there are only a few inquiries about an error, we will choose to issue fines and encourage the customer to object with reference to the error they have experienced. <\/p>\n

BroBizz has launched a BroBizz Toll App for easier payment of tolls, for example with day tickets – but it’s only available for iPhone. Why is it that a version for Android has not yet been launched four months after the introduction of the toll? <\/i><\/p>\n

We are working on an Android version of our app. Android is an open source platform used on many different brands, operating systems and models. This makes it more complicated to develop a stable version that meets the high quality and uptime requirements set by Tolls. <\/p>\n

When is an Android App solution for tolling expected to be ready?<\/i><\/p>\n

Brobizz is working on developing an Android version of the app for selected Samsung models that can meet the defined quality requirements from Tolls.<\/p>\n

Haulier Niels Jakob Overgaard Jensen bought a Volvo FL 250 in January – but it has driven far too few kilometers in its first time in the company’s service.<\/p>\n

It still has no box installed to pay tolls – despite the fact that the haulier ordered a box back in January when he invested in the truck.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Update on Danish Toll Fines – Do NOT Pay These<\/p>\n

Dear client,
\nFurther to our previous news update, we would like to share the following advice from our lawyer:<\/p>\n

Do not pay the Danish toll fines!
\n(Even if you receive a reminder.)
\nWhy not?
\n– We suspect that Denmark is acting in violation of European legislation
\n– The fine of 4,500 DKK is disproportionate
\n– The complaint from the Danish transport association ITD is now officially filed with the European Commission
\n– The case could result in a ruling by the European Court of Justice
\n– Over 25,000 fines have been issued in just three months
\nWhat happens if you don’t pay?
\nThe Danish authorities will send the unpaid fine:
\n1. To the public prosecutor
\n2. Then to the court, which will assess the validity of the fine
\n3. Only if the court confirms the fine Denmark can try to collect it
\nThis process is expected to take quite some time.
\nDuring that time, we expect a ruling that could potentially overturn all fines<\/p>\n

What is Transport in Nood doing?
\nTogether with our lawyer, we are building a strong case to put an end to the large number of fines being issued.
\nThat’s why we are collecting all fines, even if they have already been paid, appealed, or rejected.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udce9 Please send your fines to: boete@transportinnood.nl
\nInclude:
\n– The status of the fine (paid, appealed, new, etc.)
\n– Whether you would like us to file an appeal (we can do this for you, and it is separate from the collective legal case against Denmark)
\n\u2757 Already sent us the fine? No need to resend – we have it in our system. <\/p>\n

On 17-05-2025, Transport in Nood is organizing a meeting for its clients.

Camera error: Sund & B\u00e6lt cancels fines on North Jutland stretch<\/h1>\n<\/header>\n

Sund & B\u00e6lt is now canceling fines issued in connection with the collection of tolls on<\/p>\n

It concerns the stretch of the E45 at Ellidsh\u00f8j in the southbound direction approximately 15 kilometers south of Aalborg in the period from February 4 to March 11. <\/p>\n

The cancellation is due to an incorrect time setting in the camera in question, according to Sund & B\u00e6lt and the hauliers’ organization DTL.<\/p>\n

If you have received a fine from the camera during this period, you will receive a letter stating that the fine will be canceled. If you have already paid the fine, the amount will be refunded automatically, Sund & B\u00e6lt informs DTL and adds that the error has been corrected. <\/p>\n

On January 1, 2025, a new road tax for trucks in Denmark came into effect.<\/p>\n

If the tax is not paid, a fine of DKK 4,500 can be imposed. But according to the trade association International Transport Denmark (ITD), the system is flawed and a number of truck drivers have already received incorrect fines. <\/p>\n

One of them is haulier Lars Matzen Petersen.<\/p>\n

– “We’re a bit nervous. The level of fines is completely disproportionate, says the haulier, who has his own company. <\/p>\n
