俄克拉荷馬州 - 收費公路通行費

自1916年，收費公路便在俄克拉荷馬州出現，那是該州有記錄的最早的收費公路。如今在美國許多州，收費公路通行費是高速公路資金的重要來源，有利于當地經濟、道路維護及清潔。

在我們即將推出的美洲卡車模擬俄克拉荷馬州DLC中，我們可以肯定大家在旅途中至少將經過數條收費公路之一。每條收費公路都有點獨特之處，以及專屬的名字與設計。這些收費站被巧妙設計并位于每條收費公路的“中間”，這樣司機們要想離開公路就不得不經過收費站。

與加利福尼亞州的支付系統相似，你們需要一次性支付所通行的整段道路的費用。大家也許已經在美洲卡車模擬的加州附近熟悉這一流程。

現在，大部分收費站使用更現代的無現金收費系統，即通過攝像頭讀取牌照及車輛內的電子標簽設備。不過，我們的地圖團隊仍想要同時提供新舊兩種收費方式，因為俄克拉荷馬州目前正在轉換至無現金收費的過程之中。這意味著，大家仍可以在相應地方看到一些較老的收費亭及其他設計，另也可享受使用無現金系統的便利，無需將你們的車輛完全停下。

所以無論你們喜愛或厭惡它們，收費公路通行費只是大家將在俄克拉荷馬州及其他地方發現的高速公路與州際基礎設施的眾多組成部分之一。我們期待在不久后展示更多有關這項DLC的內容。在那之前，貨運不止！

Oklahoma - Turnpike Tolls

Roads that charge tolls have historically been found in Oklahoma since 1916, which is the earliest known toll road recorded in the state. Today, turnpike tolls are an important source of highway funding in many states in the US, benefiting the local economy, road maintenance and cleanliness.?

In our upcoming Oklahoma DLC for American Truck Simulator, we are sure you will end up passing through at least one of several turnpikes on your journey. Each one a little unique in their own way, with their own name and design.?These toll gates are smartly designed and situated in the "middle" of each turnpike road, in a way that the driver can't leave the road without passing by it.?

Similar to the payment system in California, there is a one-time fee for the whole section of road you travel on. You may already be familiar with this in American Truck Simulator around California.?

Today, a majority of these tolls use a more modern cashless tolling system, which uses cameras that read license plates and e-tag devices in vehicles. However, our map team still wanted to bring a mix of the old and new together, as Oklahoma is currently in the process of converting to cashless. This means you'll still visually see some of the older cash booths and other designs in place, but with the benefit of using the cashless system and not needing to bring your vehicle to a complete stop.?

So whether you love them or hate them, Turnpike tolls are just one of many pieces of highway and interstate infrastructure you'll find across Oklahoma and beyond. We look forward to showcasing more of what this DLC will feature in the near future. Until then, keep on Truckin'!?
