So what if you’re just passing through one time?

I remember when the I-520 floating bridge stopped taking tolls altogether. The bridge was paid for, so tolls were removed. Can you imagine them doing that today, on ANY toll road?

And now that it costs them basically nothing to charge tolls, I expect to see more and more of this. Especially as more and more electric cars are hitting the road.

Of course, it means they will also track everywhere you drive.

This eliminates the toll booth collector jobs.

The tollway also said it will begin a program in May to help low-income drivers by waiving deposits on I-PASS transponders and adding $20 in tolls to people with household incomes up to 2 1/2 times the poverty line

Poverty level for 2021.

https://www.thebalance.com/federal-poverty-level-definition-guidelines-chart-3305843

2 1/2 the poverty level for a single person is 32,200 a year. Family of four is 66,250 a year.

can afford the car and buy the gas but can't afford the tolls?

I guess the Dems think that the minorities who are too dumb to get a driver’s license or other free state ID are smart enough to get an EZ-Pass.

“Cash is legal tender for all debts public and private.” Guess they are striking that one out.

Three of my kids still live in Illinois, and they can’t wait to get out! One of them plans on leaving in 2023, when the private school he works for closes, but his wife works at a public school, and she’s got 10 more years before she can retire, but she can get a job wherever they move. The other two are stuck for a while. One helps his sick dad, and the other one can’t leave til her son turns 18, 10 more years! They HATE Illinois.
