It was never kept a secret in Houston that toll-tags were used to collect data for the real-time traffic map, this system is decades old. http://traffic.houstontranstar.org/aviinfo/avi-tech.html http://traffic.houstontranstar.org/aviinfo/avi-tech.html
>EZ passes are supposed to be used in one car only so it can't be lack of ability to isolate the user that's stopping it.
A car may have more than one user.
>For years I've been keeping my EZ pass in a static electricity bag when I'm not anticipating going through tolls. I'll definitely continue to do so. At least until it becomes illegal.
Try an Altoids Tin instead.

- forgotAgain 13y agoA car may have more than one user. With traffic enforcement cameras in New York the violations are issued to the owner of the car. They don't try to identify the person who was actually driving. Because they don't identify the driver the summons doesn't count against anyone's license.
- fnordfnordfnord 13y agoThe Texas legislature recently made the cameras illegal here, but even before that, a 'ticket' was only a civil matter. They would make a note on your credit report against you if you failed to pay.
- tlrobinson 13y agoEven tickets issued by officeres wouldn't be available to your insurance company, or just the speed cameras?
- fnordfnordfnord 13y agoOh, no. The regular ticket business is booming, as usual.
- canvia 13y agoDo you work for Altoids? (mostly joking)
- fnordfnordfnord 13y agoNo, but I am an electronics hardware geek, so Altoids tins are pretty much my second favorite thing.
- emddudley 13y agoNY EZ passes do not fit in Altoids tins. The pass is close to square, and its side is about the length of the long side of the tin.
