• Key Concepts: 
  A transponder is a device used in Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) systems. It is a small, radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag that is attached to a vehicle and communicates with roadside readers. The transponder contains information about the vehicle, such as its license plate number, and is used to identify the vehicle and collect tolls. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use a transponder, it must be registered with the ETC system. This can be done online or at a customer service center. Once registered, the transponder must be attached to the vehicle in order to be read by roadside readers. The transponder will then be used to identify the vehicle and collect tolls automatically. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to make sure that the transponder is properly attached to the vehicle in order for it to be read by roadside readers. Additionally, it is important to keep the transponder up-to-date with any changes in vehicle information, such as license plate number or ownership.
