You see the problems toll booths cause? They ought to be banned! ;-)

CT got rid of tollbooths/tolls after a huge fatal accident but finds other ways to get money.
Tollbooths are down in MA but tolls are still there via EZPass or “pay by plate”.(Camera gets pic of plate).Tolltakers were given other hack jobs. No need to slow down or stop for tolls helps avoid traffic jams.
Decades ago it was said tolls on turnpikes, maybe bridges, would go away when bonds were paid off but they say $$ is needed for upkeep.
