It is very easy to suggest a different/better method of card/car reading.
What we have is probably the lowest cost method (not intended as a negative comment).

All the other auto card readers would require a change out of all the equipment at every entry point in TV....plus control center(S).

A significant expenditure to change to a "more convenient" method.

No system will satisfy the users who are for some reason always in a hurry.

Are we ready to have our amenity fees increased to pursue/purchase these new systems?

I for one am not. The current method works just fine.....most of the time.

What is needed in TV is a significant change in enforcement. The reason there are so many "moving violations" in TV.... there is no fear of enforcement.

More ticketing, escalating fines, more enforcement presence......just like the little towns everybody is familiar with....that have 25 mpg speed limits and notorious for enforcement.....everybody slows down to 25....funny how THAT WORKS!!!!
