e-toll

Electronic road fee

E-toll is an electronic toll collection system that charges drivers automatically, typically using a transponder or license plate recognition rather than cash payment at a booth.

The term appears both as a noun for the system itself and as a verb: The highway e-tolls commuters during peak hours.

In South Africa, e-toll specifically refers to the controversial Gauteng highway tolling system.
