The implementation of FASTag has alleviated traffic congestion at toll plazas, enhancing the speed and efficiency of vehicle movement on highways. This technology was introduced by the government on national highways throughout India.
Here we will understand how it works, what are the documents required to get a Canara Bank FASTag, and how you can recharge online.
FASTag operates via Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. It utilises a small sticker-like device affixed to the middle top part of a vehicle's windshield. When the vehicle approaches a FASTag-equipped toll plaza, the RFID chip communicates wirelessly with the toll plaza's scanner. And then, it deducts the toll amount from the associated prepaid account.
FASTag offers numerous benefits, such as reduced waiting times at toll plazas and streamlined toll payments without the need for cash. It helps to alleviate traffic congestion, improves fuel efficiency by reducing idle time, and promotes a seamless travel experience on highways.
Plus, you can also recharge your Canara Bank FASTag anytime, anywhere.
