Don’t feel that bad. Does South Florida have surge pricing on some of their roads?

Hah. Don’t know. Last time I drove there was ‘03. Don’t remember tolls, but I remember thinking I’d seen better drivers in Baghdad and other places where there are no laws, turn signals or stop lights...

heh.

It's coming. Soon to be implemented on I-4 going through Orlando once the enormous road project is finished. Want to go swiftly through Orlando? Pay through the nose for using high speed lanes.

Otherwise, take the long route, 417, to bypass Orlando and it is also a toll road.

Projected toll for I-4 is almost 68 cents per mile for the 21 mile stretch of road. But will probably be higher by the time construction is completed in 2021. Rate for a 7 mile stretch of I-95 in Miami area is almost $2 per mile.
