Will reversing at a wrong ETC lane on the highway result in penalty points?
1 Answers
Reversing at a wrong ETC lane on the highway will not result in penalty points. However, it is essential to pay attention to the vehicles behind and avoid affecting the normal driving of other vehicles. If any traffic accident occurs during the reversing process, the driver must bear full responsibility for the accident. How ETC works: Through the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield, specialized short-range communication is established with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. This utilizes computer networking technology to conduct background settlement processing with the bank, thereby allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping while still paying the required fees. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Promotes green and low-carbon travel by reducing noise and exhaust emissions, as vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by minimizing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, lowering wear and fuel consumption. Users also enjoy a 5% discount on toll fees; Improved efficiency: The efficiency of passing through ETC lanes can theoretically increase by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC systems more updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.
