The multi-modal electronic systems approach allows the gathering of information and the collection of fares - detection and enforcement therefore are not only the strong elements in toll collection, but also crucial to improve road safety. This paper perceives road safety as an integrated approach and a shared responsibility between the public and the private. Special emphasis is put on the interaction of safety and security aspects when it comes to data privacy. In that context, safety is linked to technical aspects and the reliability of a system whereas data security is defined as the provision of the right information to the right people at the right time.Read More
