Description: From the humble windshield sticker to the sophisticated networks tracking millions of vehicles daily, road toll tags have quietly transformed how we pay for the roads we drive. This accessible guide explores the radio frequency technology powering electronic toll collection, walking readers through transponder setup, account management, and the complex interoperability agreements that let a single tag work across state lines. Along the way, it tackles the thornier questions of privacy, data protection, and how violations are detected and processed. Rounding out with a look at emerging trends in dynamic road pricing, this book offers a clear-eyed view of an everyday technology most drivers take for granted.
