An RFID sticker is free-of-charge, but you have to cash out between PHP200 to PHP500 for the initial load.

If you frequently travel along these expressways, I recommend you get your RFID sticker for a seamless, worry-free journey. Here's a complete guide:



What is RFID?

The RFID stickers or tags, usually attached onto a vehicle’s windshield or headlights, connect via radio waves to an electronic device from the toll plaza that reads the data stored on the stickers. When a vehicle with a sticker passes within the vicinity of an electronic reader, the reader picks up the sticker data and relays it to a software system that tracks the activity of vehicles. RFIDs are designed to ensure a smooth ride and seamless experience for drivers as it lessens the time a vehicle waits in a toll booth.


Easytrip and Autosweep RFIDs

Currently, we have two providers of RFIDs on our expressways: Easytrip and Autosweep RFIDs. NLEX only accepts Easytrip, though you may also enroll your Autosweep by registering it for a separate profile. Once registered, your RFID sticker can now carry two wallets – one for Autosweep and another for Easytrip.


Easytrip RFIDs are usable at the following expressways:

North Luzon Expressway (NLEx)
Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx)
Manila-Cavite Expressway (Cavitex)
C5-SouthLink Expressway
Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAx)


... while Autosweep can be used at:

Skyway System
South Luzon Expressway (SLEx)
NAIA Expressway (NAIAx)

What the LTO says about changing mag wheels, rims and tires of your car, motorcycle

The new LTO PMVIC, or the Land Transportation Office - Private Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers, has started operations in some parts of the country for inspections of cars and motorcycles due for registration renewal. Dubbed as MVIS (Motor Vehicle Inspection System), it aims to test the roadworthiness of private and commercial vehicles prior to their registration. This also includes the checking of modifications, upgrades and accessories that have been installed on your vehicles - whether factory or aftermarket. If they don't meet LTO standards, you fail the test. Failing the MVIS test means you have to retake the inspection and worse, you can't register your vehicle any more. For purposes of discussion, I chose to talk about wheels and tires because they are the most frequently modified parts of our cars and motorcycles. Now comes the question: Is it considered illegal to replace your wheels with aftermarket mag wheels? Can those u...

Only 1 valid ID required for gov't transactions: Here’s what you need to know

If you’ve ever tried to process paperwork at a government office, you know the drill: you bring your ID, and right when you think you're good to go, the window clerk asks: "Sir/Ma'am, may isa pa po ba kayong ID?" Cue the panic. ​Well, those days of endless wallet-emptying might finally be numbered. The Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) just dropped a massive reminder that could save millions of Filipinos from bureaucratic headache: When transacting with government agencies, one valid ID is enough. ​ What’s the Deal? ​ARTA Director-General Ernesto Perez stepped up to remind all government instrumentalities—including local government units (LGUs)—that demanding a second or third ID just to prove who you are is redundant, excessive, and straight-up illegal under current laws. ​● The National ID Connection: Under Section 12 of Republic Act No. 11055 (the Philippine Identification System Act), presenting your Philippine...

My love affair with the Beef Pares (and what makes this 'Proudly Pinoy' dish unique)

I t was right after college graduation when I first encountered the Beef Pares at a food joint along Timog Avenue, Quezon City. Not an exaggeration, but I fell in love with the dish the very second my tongue got near it. You may call it a post-adolescent craving if you wish, but the exotic taste of a Filipino style beef stew really did give excitement to my already swelling gastronomic appetite. Alas, my appreciation for food were never the same again. "Pares" which means literally "pair" is a combo meal featuring beef stew with a bowl of beef soup, plus a garlic-topped fried rice (sinangag). The beef are cut into squares and are cooked in soy sauce, anise, and a lot of secret ingredients. The beef must contain "litid" or ligaments. Mang Rudy's My love affair with the proudly Pinoy 'Beef Pares' started out at "Mang Rudy's Pares-Pares House" along Timog Avenue, QC, just in front of the Music Box sing-along and ...
