RECENT media reports that Malaysia may finally get the “multi-lane fast flow” (MLFF) barrier-free tolling system caught my attention. As a frequent highway user, I’m genuinely excited. Smoother journeys and less time stuck at toll plazas? Yes, please.
Most people expect the MLFF to use automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) technology. That can be a good thing. In many countries I’ve been to, ANPR helps law enforcement deal with speeding and toll evasion. It could be equally useful here, as long as it adheres to our privacy and data protection laws.
