Free Flow makes the driver’s life easier, but there is already a scammer on the eye

The system dispenses with the toll collection booth, but at the time of payment, it is necessary to see if you are paying to the correct entity

There is a novelty in several tolls on the highways: the Free Flow system. It replaces the charging booth with a gantry with cameras and radars at the top, registering the tag on the windshield called a tag, or, if the car does not have it, capturing the license plate.

SEE ALSO:

In the latter case, the owner has 30 days to pay in the banking network. As the system is still new, there are drivers complaining about the lack of more objective information about the payment.

Meanwhile, others are complaining that experts have already appeared in defrauding this collection system, but that at least it does not work with those drivers who have the tag. Still, if in your case the charge is made by the license plate, it is essential that you identify who is charging you, if it is really the highway concessionaire or the authorized agent.
