RUC (Road User Charging)

Road User Charging (RUC) is a system that requires drivers to pay for using certain roads, often based on the distance traveled or the type of vehicle. It aims to generate revenue for road maintenance and manage traffic congestion more effectively. Instead of relying solely on fuel taxes or tolls at specific points, RUC can charge drivers dynamically, encouraging more efficient road use and reducing environmental impact. It is implemented through electronic methods like GPS or specialized devices, making the process seamless and fair based on actual road usage.
