To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

Another advantage for toll-roads is it keeps the unwashed masses off and also out of state visitors who have no toll tags and the toll roads don’t accept money.

I suspect a lot of illegals drive the tollways and never bother paying. Many of them do not have drivers licenses so why pay for driving?

I would like to know how much goes uncollected by the toll authority.

Says someone unfamiliar with the system.

You are wrong on both counts.

Bills get mailed to the address associated with the license plates, but enforcement is minimal for deadbeats and out of staters.

For the top scofflaws, the amounts owed exceeded $100,000 each at the time of that story. But note that the story refrains from naming names.
