• 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.
