• Abstract:
  Vehicle telematics systems are composed of various onboard communications, positioning
  
  technologies, and computing technologies. Much of the data generated and/or gathered by these
  
  systems can be used to determine travel. These systems enable a range of new approaches to
  
  transportation policy; of immediate interest is their use in state road user charges (RUCs) that
  
  some states are evaluating as a replacement or counterpart to the motor fuels tax. The State of
  
  Oregon in 2015 implemented the nation’s first distance-based RUC system for passenger
  
  vehicles.
  
  This report briefly overviews the technologies supporting the vehicle telematics industry and
  
  discusses how vehicle telematics are currently being used to levy RUCs and how they may be
  
  used in the future, particularly in support of future transportation funding options. This report
  
  examines the challenges associated with road user charging implementation and shows how
  
  different telematics technologies might be used to address those challenges.
