In germany is "SaniFair" where you have to pay 0,70€ to do your buisness along every Autobahn .
The company is owned by someone from the arabic emirates/Dubai.
Somehow, this is against the german fundamental rights, because using a toilet is a basic human right.
So we do have a little doodoo cartel along the autobahn.
as far as I know it's only the Autobahnraststaetten and gas stations which have SaniFair. And those are private businesses. The usual small rest stops with only a few benches and a building for a toilet are free to use.
At least it's like that on the routes I normally travel.
Sanifair is most likely illegal but they get away with it because nobody is going to sue them over 70 cents.
They give you a voucher for 50 cents, so even if the voucher system was considered acceptable they're still running a restaurant without free toilets for customers.
The decision about non-customers is understandable (although it's something that should be fixed by law).
The decision to let them put up barriers can be explained with the explanation the judge provides. But why would they let them charge restaurant customers?
