Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur automatischen Abrechnung in einem Gebührenerhebungs- oder Mautsystem (12) mittels eines Fahrzeuggeräts (100). Um das Verfahren derart weiterzubilden, dass ein Kontrollmechanismus geschaffen wird, der den Nutzer einer OBU veranlasst, diese zurück zu geben, sobald diese nicht mehr benötigt wird, schlägt die Erfindung vor, dass bei Annäherung und/oder Überschreiten einer Mautsystemgrenze (10) eines Mautsystems (12) oder bei Ausschalten des Fahrzeuggerätes (100) ein akustisches und/oder optisches Signal (13, 14) und/oder eine Nachricht (z.B. eine SMS) (15) von dem Fahrzeuggerät (100) ausgesendet werden.

The invention relates to a method for automatic billing in a toll collection or tolling system (12) by means of a vehicle device (100). In order to develop the method in such a way that a control mechanism is created which causes the user of an OBU to give it back when it is no longer needed, the invention proposes that when approaching and / or crossing a toll system boundary (10) of a toll system (12) or when the vehicle device (100) is switched off, an acoustic and / or optical signal (13, 14) and / or a message (eg an SMS) (15) are emitted by the vehicle device (100).
