19. A person described in paragraph 1, 3 or 6 of section 13 must pay the toll and related fees upon receiving a demand for payment to that effect.

Such a demand for payment must be sent to the person within 30 days of the passage of the road vehicle on the designated infrastructure and must

(1)  set out the place, date and time the passage was recorded;

(2)  state that the partner will send the person a photograph showing the road vehicle’s registration plate but not allowing the occupants of the vehicle to be seen and indicating the place, date and time the passage was recorded, upon receipt of a written request and the additional fee prescribed by government regulation; and

(3)  specify that failure to pay within 30 days of the sending of the demand for payment or, as applicable, of the photograph may result in penal proceedings.

In the case of a person described in paragraph 1 or 3 of section 13, the demand for payment is sent to the last address the person gave to the partner.

In the case of a person described in paragraph 6 of section 13, the demand for payment is sent to the last address listed for the person in the records of the Société de l’assurance automobile du Québec or, if applicable, in the records kept outside Québec by the administrative authority responsible for the registration of the vehicle.

If the agreement between the partner and either the person in whose name a transponder is registered or the holder of a customer account, as applicable, provides that tolls for passages detected by the transponder are paid at the time of passage, a demand for payment referred to in the first paragraph is sent only if the person or holder is in default.
