Does that not work pretty much the same everywhere? On the rare occasion that I drive across the SR520 bridge across Lake Washington, they have no problem recognizing my Oregon plate and sending me a bill. Same when I drove through the Bay Area. Took them a couple weeks.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoIn northeast US, you get mailed a $50+ fine on top of the toll for not having an EZ Pass transponder.
- rootusrootus 5y agoThat's harsh. Do they have tollbooths for visitors, then? Seems like the places I've been on the west coast with toll roads have ditched the actual toll booths and just use license plate recognition for billing cars without a pass. No penalty, but you get a discount if you have a pass.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoYes, there are toll booths. You pay with the time you spend waiting in line though.
- brewdad 5y agoIt does work pretty much everywhere, the catch is that some places will only bill you the toll amount. Other places will bill the toll plus a small convenience fee. Others will bill the toll and a huge penalty on top. Are you confident which jurisdiction you are traveling though? Has it changed since the last time you visited?
