EZ-Pass


In CT we don't have no stinkin' tolls. I still have an EZ Pass though, mostly for the Mass Pike, sometimes up in NH and for traveling through NY....

You have an income tax. We have tolls.

I work in mass so I pay Mass tax and Tolls where ever I go. Nh does have a very low tax burden though. Ct semed exspensive to live in to me. I had a chance to re-located there. I chose not to.

Working in MA and living in NH...get to pay both the high income taxes and the high property taxes, I'd guess...

I purchased a few of the NH EZ pass transponders a few years back, only $5 each. Transponders still work and I get toll breaks going through NH. Would like to see the official speed limit through the NH tolls increased, though...I go through at 20-25 MPH and I don't have any problems.

I'd like to be positioned in the correct lane, it would help everyone tremendously. Nothing like a fellow who has to cross five lanes because he discovers he's in the wrong place at the last minute. I can't blame those drivers for lack of signage.
