How E-ZPass Works: |
|
| |
|
|
As the vehicle enters or exits the Turnpike system, the E-ZPass antenna reads the transponder, which is mounted on the windshield |
|
| |
|
|
This registers the toll electronically and sends the information to the Turnpike E-ZPass Customer Service Center to charge the account. |
|
| |
| |
|
At the Toll Booth: |
|
| |
|
|
Look for the E-ZPass sign and the signal above it for the lane status |
|
| |
|
|
Observe the 5 mph speed limit |
|
| |
|
|
>Proceed through the lane without stopping |
|
| |
|
|
Assume that the tag was read. In some cases, no signal is given as confirmation. |
|
| |
| |
|
Violations: |
|
| |
|
|
Violations may include: no transponder, an improperly-mounted transponder, or a low account balance. |
|
| |
|
|
If there is a violation, an enforcement system records the transaction, captures the vehicle's license plate number, and sends it to
the Turnpike E-ZPass Violations Processing Center. |
|
| |
|
For safety purposes, please observe the
5 mph speed limit
posted in all E-ZPass lanes.
