[Tagging] Free of charge segments of formally paid road

[Timothy Noname]

Toll roads are not the norm where I live but if a satnav app told me " this
route contains 3 toll roads" I would find another route.

Anyway one option would be toll=free indicating that it is a tolled road
but this segment is free.
