The whole state of OK is one big toll road. I-Pass does not work there. See above wiki article.
With 10 turnpikes, it might look like that. But you don't have to use them. It is how we get roads built without Federal money.
I-35 crosses the state north to south with no tolls.
I-40 crosses the state east to west with no tolls.
I-44 crosses the state diagonally from NE corner to Wichita Falls, Texas, via three separate turnpikes with freeways through urban areas. The sections of this from the NE corner to Oklahoma City are the turnpikes most used by people passing through.
Overall, only 606 miles of the 113,000 miles of public road in Oklahoma are toll roads.
Compare to 286 miles of toll road in Illinois, not counting the Chicago Skyway and toll bridge mileage.
