Karoon Turbocharged November 4, 2012 Share November 4, 2012 KL's better way of collecting tolls WHILE using the Causeway on trips to Malaysia recently, I noticed a problem with the toll collection system employed by the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA). The slot-in card system is not effective, especially since, with the barrier always lifted up, ICA officers are unable to ensure that drivers pay the toll fees. In contrast, Malaysia's touch-and-go contact-card system works better as the barrier goes up only after the toll is paid. It is time for the authorities to fix this deficiency and update our toll collection system. Cheang Peng Wah wtf man previously you can still drive off even if the cashcard is not deducted. this joker is unhapy with that. i think i've reached the point where i give up hope on singaporeans [laugh] ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVT Supercharged November 4, 2012 Share November 4, 2012 As I know, the SG side barrier is controlled by the immigration officer in the booth. When he/she finish scanning all the passport, the barrier raises up. I know this because there was once I haven't put in the cash card yet but the officer was so fast scan my passport and the barrier goes up..........!

Some officers don't bother one.... believe they are more concern with the immigration procedure (checking no. of passport correct to the no. of people in the car) than to collect the toll money. This is good because they more concern with smuggling of people, or illegal immigrates trying to sneak out! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
