Everyone is in a hurry and hates to stop at toll plazas, to tackle this problem; FAStag an online toll taxpaying was introduced by National Highways Authority of India. But unfortunately it turns out that the scheme is yet to be implemented in many toll plazas.
Despite the arrangement of vehicles crossing the toll plazas after paying toll tax online without any stoppage, vehicles are being stopped by putting barriers at toll plazas at Mathani toll plaza situated between Nagpur and Bhandara.
Even after the new arrangement of toll recovery, the plaza has signals to stop vehicles. Some vehicle drivers alleged that the new system has made no difference in stoppage time which is as long as it used to be earlier.
Long queue of vehicles is still seen in one lane of Mathani toll plaza. That apart, double the toll tax was being recovered as fine for vehicles with no FASTag card.
FASTag system has not been implemented full-fledged in toll plazas, and toll plazas are collecting double fine.
Vehicles are being halted at toll plazas. Even in the new system, despite the new system, they are facing the same inconvenience at toll plazas as earlier.
