Lmackattack Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 After they raised the tolls back in 2004 I simply stopped paying them. a slap of mud on both front and rear plates and Im "free" They can raise them all they want now. I payed them kindly for years when it was reasonable now its my turn to collect. I will have too admit that the open road tolling that came shortly after 2004 has cut my travel times some Just a fyi ... they did raise the tolls for cars slightly a few years back. Catch me if you can!Trent Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/5684-trucking-news-illinois-tollway-to-hike-fees-for-trucks/#findComment-25127 Share on other sites More sharing options...
