An radio frequency identification (RFID) tag parking system to control a gate to allow a patron in a vehicle to enter and exit a parking facility without stopping, the system comprising: a first antenna for reading an RFID tag in a first area contained within a lane215associated with an entrance or an exit of the facility; a second antenna for reading the RFID tag in a second area, separate from the first area, contained within the lane215associated with the entrance or exit; an RFID reader250connected to the first and second antennae to read an identification (ID) associated with the RFID tag when the RFID tag passes through one of the first and second areas; and a processing device to determine that the read ID is valid and may access the facility and to control the gate to open. The system of claim1wherein the first and second antennae are sequentially activated as a vehicle enters the first area and the second area, respectively. The system also may include a registration unit120, a payment unit, a driver information unit, and a reservation unit.
