- ST debunked forbes in like 90 seconds. journalism is such a joke. -- nm - amanda hk Sep 16, 14:16
- My EZ pass is from Maryland, maybe it is different -- nm - loosilu Sep 16, 14:16 12
  - yeah, just went over the NY EZPass T&C, nothing in there about it that I could find. - znufrii Sep 16, 14:25 1
    - Yup. I just read it as well and there's nothing about tracking you for traffic purposes. The article is correct. -- nm - Krusty Sep 16, 14:32
  - Do you get charged a monthly fee or an inactivity fee? I looked into getting one but I think I saw that was the case. - kelly Sep 16, 14:25 9
    - never been charged fees. I use it only occasionally -- nm - loosilu Sep 16, 14:29 3
      - ps. it is SO WORTH IT when you are driving north. -- nm - loosilu Sep 16, 14:30 2
        
        I usually wind up going through Harrisburg and over Tappan Zee, picking up 95 in CT, so I bypass most fees. (TZ is $5 one-way). -- nm - kelly Sep 16, 14:31 1
        
        if you ever go around NYC, it saves tons of time, and some tolls are cheaper for EZ Pass. -- nm - loosilu Sep 16, 14:32
    - depends on the state. PA has a fee (forget if its monthly or annually), but NY does not, so I just kept my NY tags when we moved. -- nm - znufrii Sep 16, 14:27 4
      - just checked, it's a $3/year maintenance fee in PA -- nm - znufrii Sep 16, 14:30 3
        
        you can get an account in any state. I never lived in MD. It's worth shopping. -- nm - loosilu Sep 16, 14:31
        
        (and no mention of traffic control uses in the PA T&C either) -- nm - znufrii Sep 16, 14:31 1
        
        the thing is, you are subject to the T&C of where you are driving, not where you have an account. -- nm - loosilu Sep 16, 14:33
oh, *snap* - znufrii Sep 16, 14:12 8
- how do you pronounce that inside word? - Epiphany Sep 16, 14:17 3
  - pair a' noy-axe -- nm - Beryllium Sep 16, 14:18 2
    - yup -- nm - znufrii Sep 16, 14:27
    - I like it. -- nm - Epiphany Sep 16, 14:22
- *seals up ez pass before I go on a 22 minute drive encircleing all of Manhattan* -- nm - peglegpete Sep 16, 14:14 3
  - better also turn off your smart phone. -- nm - loosilu Sep 16, 14:23 1
    - And camouflage your car. - Krusty Sep 16, 14:27
  - so instead of tin foil hats, we need lead lined wallets...actually i think we do.... - zeitgeist Sep 16, 14:21
