What are the precautions for using ETC?
1 Answers
Precautions for using ETC include: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When encountering a vehicle in front that has stopped, to prevent the front vehicle's ETC device from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the front vehicle to avoid automatic sensing and paying for the front vehicle. The ETC lane recognizes a vehicle speed of 20km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, which will also result in a failed fee deduction. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or detachment or loosening of the ETC electronic tag, will cause the electronic tag to become invalid. It can be sent to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service office for testing. If the detachment or loosening is not man-made, it only needs to be reactivated. When using a debit card to bind with ETC, insufficient balance will also result in a failed fee deduction. You can follow the guidance of on-site staff to use the manual MTC lane and pass by using cash or card payment. A windshield that is too thick may cause poor sensing. This is especially important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after an accident or for those who have modified their front windshields.
