RFID & Toll road


Another application for RFID is applying this technology in gathering travelers’ payments in using highways. Previously all the vehicles should be waiting in a long queue to pay the toll to the toll station. In addition, cost of employee that should be seat on this station, tickets that should be printed for vehicles, manual toll collection, etc all brings high cost and it was time consuming. Using RFID system in this process eliminates manual toll collection and also reduces the need for employee. Furthermore fast collection money, remove the long queue and increase satisfaction. Vehicles just by stick RFID tags on their window and pass through the RFID reader without stopping and wasting time can easily pay their toll as you see in the below picture Easily by RFID this process will done effecincy by minimum amount of cust and time.
