4.2
The Tolls applicable to any Toll Road (including the M50 Toll Road) may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with applicable law.
4.3
eFlow can unilaterally alter the class of vehicle to which Tag Tolling or Video Tolling relates, and you shall pay the appropriate Toll applicable to this new classification, if you are using the Tag Tolling or Video Tolling option for a class of vehicle which is not consistent with the class of vehicle of the Registered Vehicles and to which the Tag or Video transaction relates.
4.4
You agree to notify eFlow of any change of Registered Vehicle or change of name or address or registered office, as the case may be, within seven (7) days of the occurrence of the change. Failure to notify eFlow of any changes may result in continued liability for additional service charges, fines, or penalties as set out in the Toll Bye-laws.
5 Tags and Tag Tolling
5.1
A Tag may only be used for the Registered Vehicle (and related Account) for which it is issued by eFlow.
5.2
It is your responsibility to ensure that Tag (s) are affixed by you to the Registered Vehicle(s) for which it has been registered in accordance with the Tag mounting instructions provided by eFlow such that:
it is capable of satisfactorily communicating with the Toll Collection System; and
passage of the Registered Vehicle through the M50 Toll Road (or any other toll road) can be recorded by the Toll Collection System (or any system in place on any other toll road for the purposes of ETC).
5.3
If you acquire a Tag from an operator of a Toll Road other than the M50 Toll Road and propose to use this tag in a Registered Vehicle along with the Tag for that Registered Vehicle, it is your responsibility to ensure that the tag is installed in line with the tag installation guide and in line with section 15 of this agreement.
5.4
Where a Toll Road is an inter-operable Toll Road and the Registered Vehicle has a Tag installed in it in accordance with this Agreement, you may be able to affect the discharge of the Toll payable in relation to the use of such toll road by such Registered Vehicle:
by having its passage recorded through its Tag communicating with such Toll Road’s system for ETC;
details of such transaction being supplied to eFlow, such that eFlow will discharge the amount due in respect of such Toll; and
the amount of your Account:
  • (in the case of a Pre pay Account) will have deducted from it the amount due in respect of such Toll; or
  • (in the case of a Post pay Account) the amount due to eFlow on the next Payment Date shall be increased by the amount due in respect of such Toll, provided that where you have breached this Agreement (whether by reason of failing to pay to eFlow any amount due to it in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise or, in the case of a Pre pay Account, the balance of such Pre pay Account being less than the Minimum Balance), you may not be able to avail of this right.
5.5
In the case of Tag Tolling, where the passage of the Registered Vehicle on the Toll Road is not recorded using the Tag due to incorrect installation and an image of the Registered Vehicle’s license plate is recorded, eFlow shall be entitled to charge a Toll in respect of such use as if the vehicle is a Video payment, not a Tag payment.
5.6
Where you have breached this Agreement (whether by reason of failing to pay to eFlow any amount due to it in accordance with this Agreement or otherwise or, in the case of a Pre pay Account, the balance of such Pre pay Account is less than the Minimum Balance), eFlow may treat you as if the Registered Vehicles are not the subject of a Tag Tolling in which case you shall be liable to pay Tolls as if the Registered Vehicles are Unregistered Vehicles.
