toll collection
Road usage charges
Toll collection is the process of gathering payment from vehicles using a road, bridge, or tunnel.
Traditional tollbooths required stopping to pay an attendant or drop coins in a basket.
Modern systems use electronic transponders for automatic toll collection, allowing vehicles to pass at speed while fees are deducted from prepaid accounts.
