This short article describes the use of Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) for daily local trips. Special attention is given to the use of ETC at: a) the Lyon-Villefranche link; and b) the A42 between Lyon and Port d'Ain. An experimental full lane ETC is in operation at the Villefranche station. The lane has no physical barrier, but is monitored using video cameras. During the first week of operation there were 400 violations out of a total of 340,000 vehicles.
