		Electronic Toll Collection (ETC), an adaptation of military "identification friend or foe" technology, aims to eliminate the delay on toll roads.
		ETC was first introduced in Bergen, in 1986, operating together with traditional tollbooths.
		This permits one to drive a vehicle on another operator's tolled road with the tolls that are incurred on that road being charged to the driver's toll-payment account that they have with their home operator.

	ITS Canada: Electronic Toll Collection
		Toll collecting agencies are moving toward the implementation of ETC systems in order to obtain substantial cost benefits.
		In Japan, toll collection is undertaken by public corporationsóthe expressway authoritiesó that, in addition to their toll revenue, receive a small percent of their income from the governmentófunded by treasury investment and loansówhich is adminstered by the Japanese Ministry of Contruction.
		Despite the fact that deployment of electronic toll systems could be speeded up by interoperability either at the reader or at the tag level, vendors are being particularly slow to adopt this approach, preferring to take their chances, and possibly a larger market share, with the adoption of de facto standards.

	Electronic Toll Collection Systems in Europe
		Electronic toll collection has fast become popular with operators and users alike, as the driver does not have to stop at a toll-booth and physically pay the toll.
		However, toll collection systems have evolved over the years, and a pioneering new technology being piloted in Switzerland is set to revolutionise the industry.
		Original ETC systems were in the form of dedicated fast lanes in manual toll plazas, where one or more lanes are dedicated to automatic toll collection.

	Raytheon : HTMS — Sample Projects
		On CIH, the Raytheon Roadside Toll Collection equipment is deployed on the highway “mainline,” rather than on entry and exit ramps, to minimize infrastructure, tolling equipment and maintenance cost.
		The physical layout of the highway with the tolled MnPass express lanes are directly adjacent to toll-free general-purpose lanes and pose a challenge to the tolling technology.
		The ETC system transformed the existing lane-based system into an open-road collection system, allowing the toll plazas to remain as toll collection points but without the personnel and toll collection traffic congestion.

		Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) is the use of various technologies to allow the manual in-lane toll collection process to be automated in such a way that customers do not have to stop and pay cash at a toll booth.
		ETC allows the toll facility operator to improve customer service and satisfaction by speeding their trip through the toll plaza, removing the need for the customer to stop, fumble for change, or roll down their window.
		The toll facility operator also benefits from ETC. Facility throughput can be increased without the need to build additional infrastructure (such as more toll booths) and the amount of staff dedicated to the toll collection process can often be reduced.

		An ETC test in Hong Kong from 1983 to 1985 was a complete technical success, but failed politically due to users' concerns over monitoring of their movements.
		Most users (i.e., toll road authorities), systems integrators, and ETC system vendors believe that S. 1523 and the proposed Chapter 16 additions to the California Code of Regulations are unnecessarily restrictive, and their objections encompass technical, economic, and other factors.

	Drivers.com: Accelerating electronic toll collection
		Since the mid-1990s some toll roads have used express-lane formats for open road tolling, and the new test track will evaluate expanded wireless design scenarios that contemplate the complete elimination of barriers, enabling free flow of traffic among multiple lanes.
		Open road tolling allows electronic toll collection transactions to occur under normal highway driving conditions, eliminating plaza barriers and creating a new toll road design that helps alleviate congestion.
		Ultimately, as more and more motorists migrate to electronic toll payment, toll authorities imagine roads that are primarily an open-road design, eliminating toll plaza congestion, improving motorist safety and controlling operational costs.

		The "bounce back" from the transponder is received by the second of the two antennae, which gathers up into a data packet the transponder's serial number and the date, time and location of the "reading"; it also generates a unique identification number.
		Access to those toll records also permitted access to all sorts of sensitive information, including his billing address, his credit card number, his license plate number and his Social Security number.
		A few entrepeneurs started selling little shielded bags or boxes into which the transponders can be placed when they are no longer in use (the transponders are in fact constantly active and can be read by all kinds of "readerly" devices).

	SANS Institute - Electronic Toll Collection
		Since 1992 active Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags have been used in vehicles to automate the toll process on toll roads, bridges, and tunnels in a process called Electronic Toll Collection (ETC).
		These tags are mounted to the windshield or externally surrounding the license plate on a vehicle and read as the vehicle proceeds without stopping through special lanes at the toll plaza.
		Given the state of the art within the automated toll collection process and systems, it is indeed possible to cheat this system through a variety of means on a small scale.

		If more than one operator is collecting information at the site, the site may select and provide contact information for only one operator who will respond to all inquiries from parents about the site's privacy policies.
		In addition, an operator must notify a parent that it wishes to collect personal information from the child; that the parent's consent is required for the collection, use and disclosure of the information; and how the parent can provide consent.
		However, when a parent agrees to the collection and use of their child's personal information, the operator may release that information to others who uses it solely to provide support for the internal operations of the website or service, including technical support and order fulfillment.
