Recital 5
Recital 5
(5) Artificial barriers to the operation of the internal market should be removed, while still allowing the Member States and the Union to implement a variety of road- charging policies for all types of vehicles at local, national or international level. The equipment installed in vehicles should allow such road-charging policies to be implemented in accordance with the principles of non-discrimination between the citizens of all Member States. The interoperability of electronic toll systems at Union level therefore needs to be ensured as soon as possible, without additional burden on the costs of the equipment installed and operated by the road operators as well as on the ETC service costs.

Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) The specific characteristics of electronic tolling systems which are today applied to light-duty vehicles should be taken into account. Since no such electronic tolling systems currently use satellite positioning or mobile communications, EETS providers should be allowed, for a limited period of time, to provide light-duty vehicles with on-board equipment suitable for use with the 5.8 GHz technology only. Measures to protect the band 5.8GHz in order to avoid potencial interferences from Wi-Fi in cars and other C-ITS devices should be explored.
