Can ETC be used in other provinces?
1 Answers
ETC can be used in other provinces, as the nationwide expressway ETC network was established in 2015. Precautions for ETC usage: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When the vehicle in front stops, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to prevent automatic payment for the front vehicle in case its ETC device malfunctions or is absent. The recognition speed limit in ETC lanes is 20km/h. Excessive speed may result in failure to read vehicle device information and unsuccessful fee deduction. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or detachment/loosening of the ETC electronic tag will render it ineffective. It can be tested at the bank where the ETC card was issued or at the expressway service office. Non-deliberate detachment or loosening only requires reactivation. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may cause fee deduction failure. Follow on-site staff guidance to use manual MTC lanes with cash or card payment. Overly thick windshields may cause poor signal reception. This is particularly relevant for vehicles with replaced windshields after accidents or modified front windshields.
