I admit. This affects me. But I see more violators in the lanes who
1. Either don’t have a transponder and cut in and out between the toll lanes and the main traffic lanes just before the toll sensor and back in after the toll sensor.
2. Those liars who have a transponder and are single drivers with their switch marked to three + riders.
