eToll facts from JPSA

Dude, the article covers a lot of stuff and isn't bloated.

One thing to he aware of: SANRAL must send you an invoice to the address you provided in terms of the National Road Traffic Act (basically the address on eNatis if I understand correctly) and that it does not need to be registered mail.

And the obvious/known fact that if you register with an eTag you agree to their terms and conditions and you'll have to pay.
I'll read it later when in bed.
 
Sad how the lovely people from up North serves us Southies as ginny pigs with this whole E-toll fiasco :D
 
I received a Scamral mail informing me I owe R475.15 as my vehicle passed under one toll gantry. I haven't received a VAT invoice though. Since the nearest Scamral “customer service centre” is 320km from here I have no intention to visit it.

I am looking forward to receiving a summons to appear in court!
 
There's more to it than that, considering invading people privacy is also a crime. Would someone who genuinely hold's such a view practice underhanded, criminal tactics?

Except when you have a legal violation, the state can contact you, no invasion of privacy.
 
Thanks for the article and the continuing info provided.
 
Honestly House, why do you want people to just shut up and register? What's in it for you?

I never said shut and register, read my post again. What is in for me, to have hassle free life and the least cost possible. i.e. keep more money in my account as possible. Why pay R1000 for something when I can get it for R450? It almost sounds like everyone wants to pay more

Do you drive a super big truck? There is no way at all R7 (average gantry fee) can grow that big. Does it say you only passed under one gantry?

We are already paying more by paying for e-tolls. The whole process of introducing it was suspect. Where did the money allocated to paying for the roads go in the first place?
