3.1 You can use your account to pay for tolls on any vehicle you choose.
3.2 You don’t have to be the registered person of a chosen vehicle. But if the registered person is someone else, you need to get that person’s consent to pay tolls on their behalf for that vehicle. Choosing a vehicle means you:

7.6 We may reactivate your account if you give us a chosen bank account or debit/credit card (Mastercard/Visa) we can debit.
7.7 We may suspend your account if your credit check is unsatisfactory or if either of the events in clause 2.1 of appendix B happen, even if you tell us under that clause.

This is a summary of:
(a) the legal responsibilities of drivers, registered persons of motor vehicles and paying tolls
(b) the types of action we may take if you don't pay a toll.
The summary is an appendix to our standard agreement for using our tolling services and you should read it with the agreement. The summary isn't part of the agreement, isn't a definitive or authoritative statement of the law and isn't a substitute for legal advice. If in doubt about your responsibilities, you should seek independent legal advice.
The summary contains defined terms. You can find the meanings of the defined terms in the agreement.
The responsibility to pay a toll under the Land Transport Management Act 2003 is as follows:
(a) A driver on a toll road must pay a toll when the vehicle reaches the toll payment point.
(b) If the driver fails to pay the toll, the registered person of the vehicle must then pay the toll.
(c) It's an offence if that person doesn’t pay a toll without a reasonable excuse.
(d) An unpaid toll is a debt due to Waka Kotahi under sections 52 to 54 of the Act.
Under the Act, the registered person of a vehicle won't have to pay a toll if:
(a) another person was in charge or control of the vehicle, or the vehicle was stolen at the relevant time, and
(b) the registered person supplies a sworn statement in writing or a statutory declaration that this is the case.
If another person was in charge or control of the vehicle at the relevant time, the statement or declaration must include the name and address of the driver of the vehicle, or other details that may help identify the driver.
The statement or declaration must be sent to the toll road operator within 28 days of getting the toll payment notice, under section 52(3) of the Act.
Although the Act says you must pay a toll at the time the vehicle reaches the toll payment point, our electronic payment system allows you to pay within five working days after a toll trip.
If we detect a vehicle making a toll trip, and you don't pay for that trip within five working days, you aren't meeting your responsibilities. We’ll send a toll payment notice to you asking you to pay the toll and any applicable fee.
Unpaid tolls and fees are a debt due to us. If you don't pay the amounts owed in a toll payment notice, we may take the following enforcement action:
(a) referral to a debt collection agent and a collection fee calculated on the debt amount will be added by the debt collection agent, followed by recovery action in the courts
(b) an infringement fee issued to the driver or registered person of the vehicle, enforced under the Land Transport Act 1998.
If an infringement fee remains unpaid, it could be enforced through the courts.
