(a) For any bridge at which an automatic vehicle identification system, as described in this section, has been installed and is in operation, the department may waive the requirement that the holder of a credit permit furnish and maintain a surety bond. The automatic vehicle identification system shall have the capability of identifying each vehicle operating under the permit and of tabulating the number of bridge crossings by those vehicles.

(c) This section shall become inoperative five years from the date specified by the department pursuant to subdivision (b), and as of January 1 next following that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, which becomes effective on or before that January 1, deletes or extends that date.
