For a commuter who purposely gets the ezpass, sure.
But for the random guy passing thru, they've taken away the manual pay option on many toll roads. No reason they couldn't put a credit card machine on a lane or two, so you didn't get a surprise later.
Pretty funny comment from the guy that told me to get w technology and get a sat phone so I could get on rec.gov from the middle of nowhere!!!
Nothing to do with technology. It's a faulty system process with no means of addressing mistakes and a distinctly non technology driven process even if it's a legitimate toll. Plenty of cell coverage around most toll booths, so the credit card machines would have no problem running charges.
Most cities have made the switch for downtown parking. They let you pay at a machine rather than logging a bill into the system and it's up to you to make an account, find the fee, etc....
You're just out and out making things up. There is a means of addressing issues and having had some and having them all resolved to my satisfaction I disagree.
Yeah you can pay for the parking w your ezpass too, so what does parking have to do w tolls? The idea that the 2 systems in place to collect the tolls aren't satisfactory to you is just stubbornness and nothing more. It costs nothing to have an account and a transponder, but go ahead and insist on letting them capture the info off your vehicle and whatever errors occur downstream will be the result.
