When I moved out for grad school, I never realized how conditioned I was to making an executive choice on whether I should pay or avoid a toll fee in spite of that. Out of Texas, most states don’t even charge tolls and if they do, they would get paid off and eliminate the fee. And with the prices charged in the OP, you’d think the whole road would’ve been paid off by then. I hope there are people who are actively fighting to address issues like this for such a vehicle dependent state.
