Thanks for the replies.
Yes , i do agree that if i want to know the toll information, i should
go for directions. But based on the reverse geocoding result, i am
running a report where for each point , i am showing whether its on
toll road or not. For now, I am using Google's reverse geo-coding  as
a separate stand along appl. for getting address of lat/long.

Anyways thanks for your responses. It seems that I am asking for too
much .
