Expressway Easy Pass fails test, put on hold
BANGKOK: — The adoption of a much-heralded electronic pass for motorists on express-ways has been postponed to next year following the discovery of technical problems.
The Express-way Authority of Thailand said Monday the Easy Pass would be tested and reintroduced in the next two months.
In the meantime, the 50,000 registered motorists who have paid for Easy Pass permits will receive a discount for their renewal and for deposits on the electronic cards, once approval is given.
The test run began on October 20 and proved flawless until software-related glitches were detected over the weekend, said authority governor Thaweesin Rakkatanyoo.
