Yet another money grab by the government, as if the nearly 60% tax rate isn't enough (federal, state, sales, fuel, DMV, etc). They did this the classical way too, introduce it at ridiculously low prices <$1 just to get the system in place and then they've wasted very little time in raising prices. Ive used them in the SF Bay Area and Los Angeles where they converted car pool lanes to be express ways and carpool lanes. It would be great if they were forced to provide evidence that they actually work because to the casual observer they don't work. To those arguing that driving is a privilege, supply demand etc, get off your high horses. It's tough getting to work in these cities without a car, it sucks seeing lanes taken away and give to the wealthy, and it sucks even more to have the government take even more money without evidence of results.
