On April 30, Miyagi Prefectural Police and Niigata Prefectural Police used forged credit cards at the Murata and Izumi Toll Gates on the Tohoku Expressway to improperly eliminate two illegal passers Announced that he was arrested on charges of fraudulent fraudulent use of electromagnetic recording and payment card.

To date, we have taken a strong stance of not allowing unauthorized traffic so as not to damage customers' trust in the toll road business. We believe that the recent arrest of a person who commits malicious tolls will help ensure fairness in toll charges and prevent unauthorized tolls.

We will continue to take a resolute attitude toward illegal traffic and will actively cooperate with police investigations to tackle illegal traffic.
