Can ETC only be used for one car?
1 Answers
ETC can only be used for one car, but one card can be bound to multiple vehicles. According to the "Rules for the Use of Non-stop Rapid Transit System", when applying for an ETC card, fill out the "ETC Service Deduction Authorization Form", and when filling in the designated payment vehicles, multiple vehicles can be entered. In other words, there is no limit to the number of designated payment vehicles that can be bound to one ETC card. ETC is a non-stop electronic toll collection system, also known as an automatic road toll system. It is a road toll method specifically designed for toll roads, commonly seen on highways, bridges or tunnels with toll policies, and some sections of urban centers to alleviate urban traffic congestion. ETC Deduction Principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on the highway. Through microwave dedicated short-range communication between the vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, computer networking technology is used to settle accounts with the bank, achieving the purpose of vehicles paying road and bridge tolls without stopping at the toll station. All of this is based on the principle of passing first and deducting fees later. Benefits of Installing ETC: Save time: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and environmentally friendly: Green and low-carbon, vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions and minimizing pollution; Reduce wear and tear: Saves costs, reduces the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, and lowers wear and fuel consumption; Improve efficiency: The efficiency of ETC lanes can theoretically be increased by 2-3 times or more, making traditional ETC updates faster and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation cards in key urban agglomerations will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased." It also explicitly proposed in the main indicators of the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development that "by 2020, the ETC usage rate of road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and the usage rate of ETC passenger vehicles, the future will also promote the use of ETC for trucks and explore the deep integration of the ETC system with the development directions of smart transportation such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing car owners with comprehensive travel services. This means that more application scenarios will support ETC applications.
