We moved from Chicago to the Boston area recently. If you’ve ever driven from Chicago to Boston, you know that you’ll spend about $15 in tolls along the way. Not exactly cheap, but what’s kinda nice is that the I-Pass box you stick in the window to auto-pay your tolls in IL also works in every state along the way.
So, the family and I drove out here and paid our $15 in tolls… but we also had my car moved out on a car transport–and I forgot to take MY I-pass out of before loading it onto the truck. So my car ended up paying every toll along the way as well, while sitting up on top of a car transport. I only noticed when my I-Pass account refilled itself halfway through the trip. Bummer.
Moral of the story: remember to take your I-Pass or auto-toll-thingy out of your car before you have it transported!
