The micro-chip will store data of  the car owner, including registration details, chassis number and RTO  details. It can be scanned using chip-readers from a distance of upto  300 ft.<\/p>\n<p>Vikhe-Patil said, &#8220;It is high time we installed RFID  chips on number plates. It will enable traffic cops to use the  information on the plate to quickly pick up vehicles which are on the  road illegally. It will also help in getting details of cars which are  speeding, breaking traffic rules, and violating  pollution control norms.&#8221; He added that the high-tech number plates can be used in near  future for automatic toll collections-a system wherein the toll amount  can be debited from the car\/truck owners&#8217; account the moment his vehicle  passes a checkpost.<\/p>\n<p>State transport commissioner Dilip  Jadhav said that the Central, Wadala and Andheri  RTOs were computerising all records of car registrations in Mumbai. &#8220;The  transport minister is keen on introducing high security number plates.  We will provide the necessary information to the company who will make  the chips. It will really help us track down illegal vehicles,&#8221; he  said. The RTO had recently confiscated as many as 400 illegal taxis  which will be destroyed using gas-cutters. &#8220;The illegal autos are next  on our radar,&#8221; Jadhav stated. The RTO has, in the past ten years,  destroyed 6,000 illegal autos using gas cutters. It plans to `eliminate&#8217;  at least a thousand autos from  Mumbai roads in the next fortnight. The raids will be conducted under the  supervision of regional tranport officers Vikas Pandkar and A N  Bhalchandra.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The registration number plate of your car will soon have RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology, which will make it easier for the RTO and traffic police to get details about you and your car even from 300 ft away.
