If you have "avoid toll roads" enabled in the routing, it will add the number of seconds to the route for each toll booth you pass. If you set this very high, it could mean that a different road, without tollbooths, might become the faster route.
In most countries, you don't need to touch that. Leave it on 0.
However in some countries, there is an error in the map data. (e.g. UAE) where toll roads are not marked as toll roads. So, even with "avoid toll roads" turned on it would still take those toll roads. To accommodate for this, users can add a penalty for toll BOOTHS (extra time that will be added for passing a toll booth). By setting this value very high, the toll roads would still be prevented even though the roads themselves are not marked as toll ROADS.
