• Toll notices

Motorists are required by law to pay the toll and any associated administration charges when they drive on a toll road. If you travel on a toll road without making an arrangement to pay the toll within 48 hours, a three step process will commence:

1. Toll Notice issued

A Toll Notice will be issued to the registered owner of the vehicle detected. The letter will instruct you to pay the toll and an administration charge (typically $10.00) to recover the cost of collecting the toll in this manner.

Lodge a Statutory Declaration

If you were not the driver of the vehicle when the toll was incurred, you can nominate another person by lodging a Statutory Declaration.

Please Note:
A separate Statutory Declaration is required for each Toll Notice.

2. Final Toll Notice issued

If you fail to respond to the first Toll Notice, a Final Toll Notice may be sent to the registered operator of the vehicle. The letter will instruct you to pay the toll and an administration charge (typically $20.00) to recover the cost of collecting the toll in this manner.

3. Penalty Notice issued

If you do not respond to a Toll Notice (either a first or final), a Penalty Notice may be sent to the registered owner. The fine for non payment of a toll (including any administration charges) is $150.00. Penalty Notices can be issued directly, that is, before a Toll Notice is issued.

Toll Notices for M4

If you have not paid a toll and received a Toll Notice for travel on the M4, then you should ensure that you action the Toll Notice (either pay the toll, elect another driver or make an objection). Do not ignore a Toll Notice as this may proceed to a Penalty Notice. Consult the Toll Notice for contact details if you require further assistance on actioning the Toll Notice.
