I-Pass and EZ-Pass

[vipra]

I have Chicago's I-Pass, but I've never gotten EZ-Pass because I rarely go to the East coast. I just learned that I-Pass can now be used at all EZ-Pass toll booths, and EZ-Pass can be used on Chicago's tolls. Truckers have to get a new transmitter (free). More info here:

Why do I get the feeling that I'm the only one who didn't know this????

Illinois made some recent changes several months ago when they went and raised all the tolls.
Outside of that, I'm not sure what other changes they made.

Good information to know.
Thanks for the post.

This is good news. I have accounts with Fast Lane and I-Pass. Fast Lane is accepted at all EZ-Pass locations. I just E-Mailed I-Pass folks to see if they will accept Fast Lane at I Pass locations. I'll report back when I get an answer.

Thanx for spreading the news. Terry

i stop the ez pass after i hread about new york and new jersey
using it to check how fast you got from point to point
and using it on logs to if it came to that

Geo why would a law biding log book pro like yourself do that?

Do you even run a log book with your little sprinter?
Didn't you say you are now doing local runs 90% of the time?

No DOT is looking to hurt you. They only check and recheck when and if there is an accident involved.

If you like I-Pass, EZ-Pass, and/or PrePass, you'll love PrePass Plus; one transponder, one account, one service center, all PrePass, E-ZPass, and I-Pass functions bundled into one. Check it out:

This is from the FAQ page on the PrePass site:

(Question) Is a driver’s time from one PrePass weigh station to another PrePass weigh station checked to see if they are speeding?

(Answer) Information collected at one PrePass site cannot be passed on to another site. PrePass has no device to record a driver's speed.
