A British perspective on the difficulties of toll interoperability, the case of EETS - by Andrew Pickford


Europe and the US have approached interoperability in very different ways; both regions having their roots in isolated, proprietary technologies from the late 1980s and early 1990s. The battle between vendors in Europe slowed the pace of development of DSRC standards as you point out.

EETS - Eurointeroperability starting 2013


Ugly word perhaps but Eurointeroperability captures the essence of EETS much better than the official title: the European Electronic Toll Service.  That's the term for a scheme recently adopted by the European Commission to enable tolls to be paid almost everywhere in the European Community with one contract, one account and one on-board unit (transponder or GPS).
