Mandatory One Vehicle, One FASTag Rule Implemented

The "One Vehicle, One FASTag" rule has been officially enforced, requiring every vehicle travelling on national highways to have a single FASTag. This regulation aims to streamline toll collection processes, enhance efficiency, and reduce traffic congestion at toll plazas across the country.

With the implementation of the "One Vehicle, One FASTag" norm, authorities seek to promote digital transactions and facilitate seamless passage through toll booths. The mandate ensures that vehicles equipped with FASTags experience smoother and faster toll payments, contributing to overall road network optimization and improved travel experience for commuters.

The new regulation marks a significant step towards realising the government's vision of a digital and cashless toll collection system. By mandating the use of FASTags, authorities aim to curb manual toll collection processes, minimise waiting times at toll plazas, and enhance the overall efficiency of the national highway network.

Under the "One Vehicle, One FASTag" rule, vehicle owners are required to adhere to the prescribed guidelines and ensure that each vehicle is equipped with a valid FASTag. Non-compliance with the regulation may result in penalties and fines imposed by the authorities.

As the mandatory implementation of one FASTag per vehicle takes effect, stakeholders anticipate smoother traffic flow and improved toll collection mechanisms on national highways. The transition to a single FASTag system underscores the government's commitment to promoting digital payments and enhancing the overall efficiency of India's transportation infrastructure.
