563 Inex/Zamir (Inex Technologies) has completed in-house trials and integration of the 536 Sick LMS211 laser device. The company specialises in ALPR (Automatic License Plate Readers) for high-speed toll violation enforcement applications, with several hundreds of lanes awarded in just the past few years alone. As Inex Technologies points out, open-road tolling systems require the ability to capture and accurately read license plates of vehicles travelling at speeds of up to 200 km/h. As a result, the company needed a device that could trigger its ALPR system reliably at those speeds and the Sick offering met that requirement; it is already successfully deployed on high-speed tolling systems in many parts of the world.

    All-electronic tolling boosts traffic flow but introduces the tricky question of enforcement. Workable solutions are starting to emerge. Enforcement is an essential part of tolling and one of the most important ways for a mobility agency to keep faith with its investors, its community stakeholders and the vast majority of its users. It can also be one of the most unpopular and contentious things a toll authority has to undertake. If tolling is about paying for the roads, then everyone has to pay their
