PrePass Financial Guarantee Surety Bonds run to the PrePass Safety Alliance to guarantee payment of the tolls and fees as part of the PrePass program. Prepass Safety Alliance provides PrePass weigh station bypass and toll payment services.  Trucking industry leaders, enforcement agencies, and state DOTs first formed the non-profit public-private partnership in 1993 to improve commercial transportation safety and efficiency.  PrePass allows qualified commercial trucks to electronically bypass weigh stations with an RFID transponder or mobile app that communicates with road side readers and stations.

What is a PrePass Financial Guarantee Surety Bond?

The PrePass Financial Guarantee Surety Bond is a specialized commercial surety bond that allows carriers to participate in the PrePass Program without making a cash deposit. Instead of tying up capital, motor carriers can post this bond as a financial guarantee for program obligations.

Specifically, this bond guarantees the payment of:

• Tolls
• Weigh station fees
• Other PrePass service fees

By providing the bond, carriers ensure the PrePass Safety Alliance receives timely payment for all obligations while allowing trucks to operate efficiently on the road.
