What does it mean to have ETC stolen?

[OscarRose]

Having ETC stolen refers to the situation where the ETC gantry recognizes your vehicle when passing through the ETC lane, but due to slow speed, another vehicle cuts in and passes the toll entrance ahead of you. Below is some information about ETC toll collection: 1. How to prevent ETC theft: (1) Regularly check if the onboard OBU device is functioning properly. A prompt tone will be heard when the ETC card is inserted. (2) When using ETC to pass through a highway toll booth, drivers should slow down to ensure the device successfully senses the information and allows safe passage. (3) Maintain a distance of more than 10 meters between the rear vehicle and the front vehicle to avoid the front vehicle using the rear vehicle's information. 2. What to do if ETC is stolen: If your vehicle's ETC is stolen when entering the highway, and it still cannot be recognized after reversing and re-entering, you can switch to the manual lane and swipe the ETC card, and you will still be charged normally.
