The phantom toll booth

So the husband is in the Chicago area. He says that people neglected to tell him to carry $50 in change everywhere he goes and he has had to run a couple of toll booths. And that there is no pulling off or backing up. If I have to go bail his ass out of traffic jail, I'm gonna be pissed. Who puts a toll booth on an on-ramp? Welcome to Illinois, indeed.

Don't get me started. It's ridiculous. And making people pay more* for not having an I-PASS has to be a violation of the Commerce Clause.

This is why I don't drive in suburban Chicago.

*sometimes 2x more if you pay in cash instead of paying by I-PASS.

Can't you just pick a number and stick with it? Must it be a different number at each booth? And why aren't they manned?

Been there twice, never rented a car, never needed to. Took the train. But still, it seems like it would increase gridlock, not help it.

Good to hear that the husband is as dumb as you.

I was in Florida recently and I was shocked by the number of $1.00 toll booths on the roads around Ft Lauderdale. I think I blew through about $20, one dollar at a time. Florida roads are like a mediocre strip club. But without the boobs or stripper glitter. Or any happy endings.

You should pay simply for the traffic tie-ups you cause by not having one.* They need to start the EZ-pass lanes way further back most places. Perhaps just give us a dedicated lane.

*not to mention having to pay someone to stand in exhaust fumes 8 hours a day. think of the children.

For how wonderful the city is, everything about the surrounding suburban area sucks (sorry, Wonk). It is all flat, overpriced farmland w/minimalls and big box stores.

Hank: the Detroit suburbs are a breath of fresh air compared to effing Schaumburg. Actually, the Detroit suburbs are amazingly nice given what they surround.

You have a problem with big box stores, punk?

I prefer Highland Park if I need to be out in suburbland.
