What do Northeast people think of the cashless tolls being built all across NJ and NY?

What do Northeast people think of the cashless tolls being built all across NJ and NY?

it sucks and is technically illegal, creating a court document regarding every citizen's travel presumes guilt

If you get EZ Pass, the tolls are a lot less expensive. You get charged from $3 to $5 more per crossing if you opt for the cashless tolls (licence plate reader toll by mail) rather than EZ pass.

We live in a panopticon at this point. They know where my car is anyway, I might as well get the cheaper EZ pass rate.

It's great if it's a toll you drive past all the time.

Honestly, though, something needs to be done about traffic congestion. They need the toll money for maintenance. This allows them to collect the money and reduce congestion. It is a practical remedy to a large problem.

I Fucking hate them.
It's a way for the states to swindle more money out of travelers because in order to use them you HAVE to buy the EZ Pass
Then you HAVE to pay the state money onto your EZ Pass
and the state, while already taking all your toll money,
takes a healthy addition onto your toll money for EZ Pass "fees"
especially the fee for getting one

Related: There was a guy in my state who had an EZ Pass for his company vehicle.
He went online and made a transaction for $70 onto his EZ Pass for work that week
The state ran the transaction through 11 times and credited him $770 EZ Pass dollars

Then refused to refund him.

Fuck Statists.

I live in MN so we dont have to deal with tolls. Just big city socialists trying to divert transportation funds from roads and bridges to fucking trains to get robbed on.

but EZ pass is still cheaper than paying cash / running the light

>americans ACTUALLY have toll gates
>their roads are still russia tier, of the worst on the planet
>pay taxes for roads
>pay toll fees while driving
>get billions in funding thrown at roads
>STILL SHIT ROADS
kek

Who would ever commit a serious crime in their own car..?

Also TX has been cashless forever and it's fairly convenient.

Absolutely disgusting.

Highway robbery. $1.50 a toll ?!

lol
this can't possibly be posted by someone from the northeast. In Jew York the state income tax is CA levels. Not to mention the state sales tax. the money literally provides nothing except more niggers.
there are sections of road near JFK airport I've seen under construction for nearly 20 years with no change. It's a fucking joke.

it's $15.00 to cross the George Washington Bridge and $8.50 to cross the Whitestone and Triborough.

I payed a fucking $13 toll to get out of NJ how is that justified?

Not in my state

Not all states.
In Texas the tollways are pretty much optional or just for convenience but the revenue is always used to keep the roads in great condition. Besides shitskins don't like to pay tolls so driving on the tollways keeps the road nice and white.

I've had EZ pass for years.

NC just started doing this shit as well, thankfully back roads are still the quickest way around in most of the state

What would you propose? Not an ideal solution that will never happen, but a practical one that has a chance of actually being implemented?

Burning it all to the ground and starting over is not an option.

And, yes, I am a New York/Jersey fag.

have less people = smaller roads and less congestion

There is no price too high to pay to get out of New Jersey

that meme is funny and all but that was fucking $13 I only brought $120 (young and broke) to get to upstate NewYork to NC and about ran out of fucking gas because of tolls.
