Tolls. What a PITA.

mine is in the glovebox, but usually comes with the "oh shit, there's a toll coming up" where someone has to go dig through it to find it. Used maybe 3 times per year in transit from SC to ME.

I use mine daily and hit maximum frustration level with "toll not paid, call ez-pass" messages.

That only happened to me when I got a new debit card and didn't update the info, resulting in denied transactions... Could that be it or was it your unit?

It's a problem with the tag being read. My account is current

Very True....I used to have them on my cars, and when traveling on the GSP during a ice/sleet/snow storm, the toll readers never read the tag, thereby increasing the Post Office's job by sending me hundreds of violations. It took months by the way to remove the $25.00 surcharge on each toll of $.35.

The amount of times that I drive during snow/ice storms is maybe 3-4 times a year, I'll enjoy the convenience the other 361 days of the year

I really don't care if it ices over. It's a pleasure having it on the license plate. Depending where you travel, they accommodate you. I was traveling the Hutch maybe during a snow storm. When I approached the toll plaza, they had cops at the gates rubbing the snow off the transponders so they could be read. Same thing happened at the VZ Bridge and the jerk cop gave me a bunch of sh*t. Like he thought I was going to get out and clean it off. He was pissing and moaning that they were going to have to do something about this problem.... SHUT UP and wipe the snow off my plate.

I put mine on the inside cover/lid of center dash storage compartment. Then flip open the lid when going through toll. Of course if you have Nav, it won't work.
