Paid at a toll booth a long time ago in another state. Our state eliminated tolls in favor of a gas tax. I'd rather pay tolls.

Living in Milwaukee, the only tolls we are susceptible to are those in Illinois

Isn't this a coincident ?? In our local paper this AM was "The average increase will be 25?cents at most toll booths along the Suncoast Parkway and other state toll roads"
And the reason given was "said ridership is down on the parkway and other toll roads"
So the ones that use it will pay more to make up for the loss of revenue ?

Where have I seen this principle use before ??

Last time I paid a toll going over San Francisco Bay Bridge I stopped in front of cashier. Tried to take out my walletto pay $5.00 cash. I had tough time that I got out of my vehicle to pull my wallet out to pay toll I looked back there was a line-up. I don't look since I know there no one would help me. More likely they would throw me into the Bay! The big line of cash only. I though either they can't get credit card or they can remove their wallet okay. Or they had the cash already to pay the bridge toll. Next time I'll do the same!!!

Paid cash @ the toll booth.

Sure glad Kentucky has gone away from toll roads. They sure did empty my wallet back then! :-)

18% never paid a toll? That amazes me. Guess it makes a difference living near the IN toll road, but I've had many more traveling out of state. Some of you need a vacation!

Interesting...those saying no toll roads in their region have, traditionally, higher gas prices.

Transponder. Saves money as opposed to manual payment at a toll booth. It's almost double the rate using the manual toll booths.
