Will the ETC billing camera also measure speed?
1 Answers
ETC billing cameras do not measure speed. The current ETC non-stop billing system has eliminated toll booths at provincial borders on highways. Therefore, it is necessary to use the identification devices installed on the gantries to read the ETC electronic tags inside the vehicles, thereby determining the driving route of the vehicle on the highway to correctly implement segmented billing for the vehicle owner. Each gantry is equipped with cameras, supplementary lights, and signal receivers, and the cameras can capture vehicle information. Through the dedicated short-range microwave communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna on the ETC lane gantry at the toll station, the system uses computer networking technology to perform backend settlement processing with the bank. Therefore, when passing through a highway gantry, the ETC electronic tag inside the vehicle will beep once, and the vehicle owner does not need to worry about being photographed for speed measurement or encountering malfunctions.
