Once the bond debt is paid off over the next 30 years or sooner . . . they will just keep milking that cash cow. Is there any case of a bonded toll road going free after the bond is paid?

And, if you are just travelling thru and don’t have a SunPass, they will hit you for an EXTRA $2.50 per toll when they scan your plate.

They don’t even tell you that you are on a toll road and there are no toll booths to pay at.

You just get the bills in the mail. Like a red light camera bill.

In many cases the $2.50 service charge is more that the hidden toll.

Wow. Talk about a slush fund!

I can’t imagine paying hundreds a month to drive.

In addition to local, state, and federal taxes, gas taxes, vehicle inspection and registration, licensing....

Geez. How much is enough for these people?

“Feel like they are spending...” How do you feel spendings? I’m sure the drivers know that they are spending more since they see the charges. No need to feel the spending. I thin the “feel” unhappy about spending more.

Poor logic and poor writing. IDIOCRACY turned out not to be satire.

Few or no tolls in the Tampa Bay area. FL has no income tax. I love it here.

Bwahahha!

Perhaps if they would actually THINK instead of FEEL, they might get a clue.

But being so largely north-east liberal a-holes and idiots, voting for the same crap they fled from there, say tack on another 75 cents….

I drove the toll roads all over Orlando for years and I never paid as much as mentioned in the article.

As soon as it’s paid off they’ll drop the toll. Just like they did on the Rickenbacker Causeway to Key Biscayne.

Oh, wait a minute.... They didn’t drop the toll you say?
What?? The toll is $1.75 now?? Used to be 25 cents.
