I took the toll road 3 times since Christmas, its nice perfect road, could be in France, except, there is nobody who uses it. Didnt see any police on the 3 journeys and saw several big SUVs doing +160 km/h.
Several service areas with (clean) toilets, and 1 petrol-pump from Total, but dont know its woring already. Coming from Koh-Kong i paid 3 dollar upto Kampong Speu East, in fact the last exit before the main barrier in Phnom Penh. Wanted to avoid the main barrirer because sometimes there is a traffic jam there, and i lnow why: There system is real khmer-style. Even to enter the motorway, the (very) pretty girl has to do i-dont-know how many things with hee computer before giving you the entrance-card. Its an electronic E-card, but "manual" (no joke). It takes time, and to exit the same wy, it takes time for every car. When driving 2 weeks ago the other way from Phnom Penh to SHV i took the main entrance a bit north of the airport. They knever saw a foreign car overthere, they wanted to see papers, called a second girl, then phoned a third, they asked: you have any khmer document: NO, i am barang, so is the car !! ?? After more phone calls, i said, i have an expired Khmer driving licence !! Ahhhaa, hallelujaah, that will do. It took about 15 minutes just to enter the toll-road !! OOhh my preaaah !! Toll is 12 dollar to SHV for a car, came back with LARRYTA-van (as i left my car in SHV-docks) and they take all the way the toll-road, its 24 dollar for them, they dont use the ETC-tag what makes me think that there are serious issues with it also. But all together its a smooth ride, from Angkor brewery in SHV to PP-airport in 2 hours and if you are "heavy-feeted" you can do it in 1.30 alos if you want to. No speeding cameras and no police to be seen !!

I saw on the 3 jouorney 6 big trucks, all from the same company. At every entry point is a weigh-bridge, and its compulsory for big rigs (hope that doesnt give an idea to european road-builders), what ofcourse means, every trucker who thinks he could be overloade will even not try to get on. No idea whats the price for a 5-axle rigid, but probably +48 dollars, they wont win that in less fuel-consuption on a 200 km stretch, and the time they win, they dont care, the trukker gets paid maybe 10 dollars a day. They do the numbers not the same as we do in Europe.
