The paper studies a continuum percolation process in which discs of random (but bounded) radius are centered at the points of a Poisson process with intensity \(\lambda\). There are various metric characteristics associated with the cluster of discs containing the origin, such as its volume or diameter. Using results of \textit{M. V. Men'shikov}, \textit{S. A. Molchanov} and \textit{A. F. Sidorenko} [Itogi Nauki Tekh., Ser. Teor. Veroyatn., Mat. Stat., Teor. Kibern. 24, 53-110 (1986; Zbl 0647.60103)], the author shows that all such quantities exhibit a phase transition at the same critical point \(\lambda_ c\). Furthermore, an RSW lemma is established in two dimensions, dealing with concatenations of vacant crossings of rectangles.
