Tolls on toll roads
First, my rant: Came into Orange County California yesterday and used the toll road to bypass traffic. (for those not familiar, traffic is horrendous 24/7) Anyway, we pull up to the toll booth ...

The Mackinaw Bridge is the same way. Cheaper to disconnect unless you have a tow dolly and they got you either way!
The Delaware Memorial Bridge, Delaware Bay Bridge and the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel all really stick it to the RV'er with a toad. We disconnect/drive through/reconnect on all. These states are simply looking for easy money, and will screw any group they think they won't get too much squawk out of. At least I can screw back by disconnecting. Pity the poor owner/operator driving an 18 wheeler. These guys have few if any options at all.
By the way, we always use the far right hand lane and there's always shoulder room to disconnect and reconnect.
