| 730563 | 2008-12-18 03:32:00 | Interesting - One problem I can see is that it reads the number plate - what happens if the vehicle's plate cant be read - covered in crap for example. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 730564 | 2008-12-18 03:59:00 | It did say that if your number plate cannot be read it is sent to someone who can, possibly a human, I suppose. The best thing I thought, about the video, was the flying car. Very well done. Perhaps if the general public had a car that would do short hops like that they would not have to pay the toll.:thumbs: |

| 730566 | 2008-12-18 06:29:00 | Bet if this numberplate recognition reading works they will put the same system on the Auckland MW onramps so that when the onramp lites are on you will get flashed and a bill. That's the real reason for these tax payer funded lemmings.. | paulw (1826) | ||
| 730567 | 2008-12-18 09:48:00 | Interesting that the cameras note your speed too. More potential revenue for government coffers if you happen to be cruising past the cameras at 110km/h.... |

| 730570 | 2008-12-18 23:14:00 | its all a farce. all that cost of fitting the toll system for a road that should be paid out of gov funds in the first place and 5 years ago when it was 1/2 the price :( so now not only do we pay double we have to pay for the system to bill us too ! |

Yea and all they have done is move the bottle-neck from the existing motorway ending at Orewa to Puhoi... |
