# avoidTolls

A Boolean value that prioritizes routes to avoid tolls.

## Declaration

```data
avoidTolls?: boolean;
```

## Discussion

Discussion Set this value to true to prioritize routes that don’t have any tolls. The returned routes may contain tolls if no reasonable toll-free routes exist, even if avoidTolls is true. To verify toll assumptions, check hasTolls. The default is false.
