@ TAfricanski 
I am sorry, but what you wrote is confusing?!? The only reason for the existence of this fee is the Romanian government. AFAIK our Ministry of Finances proposed to skip the fee and allow free ride bur the Romanian part declined the proposal and they kept it. When both countries enter Shengen the fee will be gone ...
