Slex rfid

[CVT]

I got my RFID since summer last year. It's on the headlights. I got 80% reliability from it since then, which is really annoying. Oh well, at least I don't need to fall in line in the cash toll booth. The only toll booths where it work 100% are at Bicutan Skyway.

As the other folks said here, hopefully the RFID will be read 100% of the time once the E-Pass sensors have been decommissioned come April.

Agree.... And that they equip all the booths with RFID readers....

A few days ago,- the entrance to SLEX from C5 was clogged, because of the RFID lanes. They closed the leftmost booth as they allowed the northbound vehicles to use it, and so, the RFID lanes/booths were reduced to just two. One dedicated (second from the left), and the rightmost booth- which is mixed cash/rfid/epass(?)....

Cash only lanes?.... very short queue....

Yep, there was a long queue in the ETC lanes. It was very frustrating to see cars just breeze thru the cash lanes. ETC was supposed to ease the use of the expressways. There was a problem with the sensors so the toll booth attendants had to manually read the cards on their system before they can let a car pass thru.

That is why when I see a long queue from afar, I check immediately if the ETC/Cash lanes have ambulant ticket vendors, this will be faster, because there is no need for slow rfid detection and less chances of reading error.

Another problem they have to solve is the clogging at Silangan SB exit, the entrance to the ETC booths should be extended far enough so that non-ETC users will not clog that lane. You will spend at least 20 mins in the queue just to reach the ETC entrance lane. This also happens in other entrances' during peak hours.

Also at the Silangan NB entrance, they should take out the moving barrier at the leftmost ETC lane as it is useless, cars with ETC can pass thru faster at the other lanes.

The only time I feel the advantage of having ETC is during off-peak hours, when the non-ETC toll booths are clogged because only a limited number are open to probably save on manpower cost.

It seems this is getting to be the norm the past few days. RFID lanes have longer queues than the cash lanes, especially the southbound lanes during evenings.

Before ni-roll out sa public, diba last year may "RFID" signs na sa toll gates? Ibig sabihin the infra was already installed, hindi ba nila ni-pilot testing yun that time?

Kung ganyan na lagi namang miss ang RFID, sana nilagay na lang yung RFID sticker sa card tapos may reader na naka-install sa tollbooth. Driver slows down to tap the card on the reader, tapos. No need for trial-and-error by slowing down to see if the sticker is read, tapos aatras pa minsan para iabot ang card sa teller, na minsan nasa kabilang booth pa.

Kung pwede lang tanggalin temporarily ang sticker, gamitin ko muna ang old epass ko.

The bad side of pinoy manipulated business, pag na corner na ang market bahala na kayo sa problema nyo, basta tuloy ang bayad at kita. Yan ang mahirap kung walang consumers right , ituturo ka sa DTI na isa pang kamot ulo lang din.
