PLUS Malaysia has announced that its JustGo automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system for toll payments has been rolled out across the entirety of its namesake North-South Highway. As yet, this does not include the Penang Bridge, although the Second Bridge does support it at the Bandar Cassia toll plaza.
This means it will have completed the central and southern regions, connecting the northern section from Sungai Dua onwards in Penang with the southern terminus of Kempas in Johor. We assume this also includes the Central Link (ELITE) and the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) that connect the northern and southern routes.
The JustGo rollout began in January with a pilot programme involving the Hutan Kampung to Sungai Dua stretch. This spanned 87.7 km and included the Alor Setar (North and South), Pendang, Gurun, Sg Petani (North and South) and Bertam toll plazas.
In June, this was extended to the northernmost toll plaza in Jitra, with the Butterworth-Kulim Expressway (Kubang Semang and Lunas toll plazas) also brought into the fold. The following month, PLUS began joining up the southern route, adding the southernmost toll plaza of Kempas as well as the Tanjung Kupang, Lima Kedai and Perling toll plazas on the Malaysia-Singapore Second Link (Linkedua).
To register for JustGo, you’ll need to download the app, register for an account and link your car’s number plate (obviously) and a bank card for payments. Once done, you can pay for tolls by simply driving through a toll plaza, with a camera scanning your plate number just like at mall carparks.
You can go through any available lane – there’s no special lane, unlike Touch ‘n Go’s RFID system. The only exception is at the aforementioned Bandar Cassia toll plaza, where JustGo is only installed on an RFID lane, indicated by a red dot. PLUS says that the Penang Bridge will be added soon, with an announcement to be made once ready.
What about Touch n Go’s RFID? Will we have two competing systems? Read more here.
Still has to pay toll with new gimmick. St**id government should scrap all toll.
Can read fancy number plates?
Will there be a conflict when the car drives through RFID toll – toll fees deduction from JustGo or RFID or both!?

JustGO gets charged first because overhead ANPR cameras read your number plate from furthest away as you approach. RFID is second because its scanner range detects your tag before SmartTAG if plate recognition fails. SmartTAG is last since its infrared beam only triggers directly under the gantry as a fallback. The lane controller locks immediately after the first successful trigger, so you will not be double charged.
Percayalah sgt AI tu!
Verified, vs. smart tag. Number plate detection first. #notai
Verified as well, im frequent rfid user. So when i pass thru Stag/rfid lane.. justgo detected first and i am freely exit any lane (tng/Stag/rfid) and justgo charge my account.
Also in justgo, you can insert yout rfid tag number as well, maybe that for backup purpose i guess to avoid double charge? Idk. But so far its been a month and no issue.
this is the outcome of having too many cronies to feed , now we need to waste money on replicating two similar systems
I’ve been using it on NKVE since early July. Quite accidentally discovered that it was working on the RFID lane. No issue of double counting. In fact I had more positive reads with ANPR instead of RFID the entire time. I say more than 90% capture by ANPR … day and night.
ah…another bs system
Why cant it be incorporated into tng
e-wallet …… ie all tng/tag/rfid/justgo in one payment .
All the lanes should have these 4 systems to avoid confusion at peak hours

I ve tag/tng/rfid….why bother with anpr n another payment system.
Go through TnG e-wallet, Plus probably need to pay come commission to TnG. Use debit card, 100% goes into Plus pocket and bypass TnG. If you are Plus boss – would you invest something that benefits your competitor(when there are many existing channels that pays through TnG) or bypass TnG to maximize your own profit?
What happens if 2 black myvis, most common car in Malaysia, having the same number plate due to cloning goes through the toll?
then its the job of law enforcement to hunt down the criminal
Congratulations, you found out the weakness of visual identification systems.
what happen if ANPR did not detect and i dont hv RFID?
Bank
Their ANPR not so reliable, my car being charged at toll few hundred km away multiple times when my car is parked at home. Have to report to them and wait few days for their investigation then refund.
I have only Touch N Go e-wallet. Can i use ANPR feature in TnG at normal toll payment (not RFID)? That’s because i don’t have JustGo app
Can i use ANPR from TnG e-wallet to go through the tolls (not RFID) ? That’s because i haven’t installed JustGo app.
Good move
One of the better options for toll payment. It’s fast and can use on all lane either tngo, smarttag or rfid lane. Tried enter tng and exit at smarttag also can detect. Tried using Smarttag while justgo activated, smarttag will returned error redundant device beep 3 times. The only drawbacks only works on Plus highway and need to remember that. To be safe, if you enter rfid lane, better exit rfid lane. Hopefully will expand to other toll concessionaires.
