Na, the whole north east United States uses an active RFID transponder system that is compatible from Illinois all the way to the east coast and from Maine all the way down to North Carolina. You just stop in at any store in IL that sells the, many grocery stores do, and buy the transponder for $10 and link it to your credit card. In IL it is called "i-Pass" in other states it is called EZ-Pass but it is all the same thing and inter-operates.
