said by pnh102:said by Crookshanks:Enjoy the gravy train while it lasts people, you're already obsolete; it's only a matter of time before E-ZPass becomes mandatory or is supplemented with license plate readers to catch the people without tags.
The Intercounty Connector (MD Route 200) in Montgomery and PG counties in Maryland is such a toll road. There are no tollbooths and EZ-Pass is required, and plate-reading technologies automatically bill drivers who do not have an EZ-Pass transponder or a valid EZ-Pass account.
IMO I don't see why EZ-Pass in general still requires transponders... just read the plate number and bill from that.
If you don't have an EZ-Pass you are billed a 50% surcharge.
