Zusammenfassung:	A system is disclosed for assessing roadway toll charges based on vehicle occupancy level based on occupants each having an electronic fob with a unique indentifier. The system includes: a vehicle-mounted RFID fob reader; a plurality of RFID fobs; an RFID toll tag associated with the vehicle; an RFID toll tag interrogator located at a tolling point; and a fob reader interrogator located at the tolling point. Each fob is associated with a vehicle occupant and the RFID fob reader interrogates the fobs to determine the number of fobs in the vehicle and thus determine vehicle occupancy. A method for assessing charges based on this system is also disclosed.
