Illinois Tolls Double 1/1/05

A matter of principle.

A better idea would be to avoid altogether those states/areas that take advantage of unsupecting guests.

Here's an offer for you. Come on up and visit. Spend your money for hotels, fuel, clothing, souvenirs, repairs, all the things that visitors buy.

And be sure to remember - you're a visitor, a guest, so you get special welcome attention. You pay double.

Thanks! My wife hates interstate highways and I love them, so we usually compromise by mixing it up a little. I'll just compromise a little more, for principle's sake. H

I've had an I-Pass transponder since they first came available. The proncipal motivation then was less hassle at the toll booths.

Now that tolls have doubles for cash, (from $.40 per car to .80) more frequent users will be buying them, this increasing the hassle. again.

They are $10 deposit plus 40$ toll reserve which is used until it almost gone, and then the reserve is automatically renewed charging it to your credit card.

What is all the uproar about?
