Section 2520.269 - Payment of Tolls

a) All persons driving vehicles on the Tollway, except as provided in subsection (b), are required to pay the prescribed toll at each toll plaza. Tolls may be paid in the following manner:

1) By currency or change in legal tender of the United States of America presented to a toll collector, or by correct change deposited in the automatic coin machine;

2) By I-PASS; or

3) By an electronic toll collection account in good standing with a toll agency that has entered into a reciprocity agreement with the Tollway.

b) Tolls are not required of Authority officers and employees while on Authority business, or of public police, public fire or public ambulance vehicles when on emergency business or duty necessitating the use of the Tollway system, and when the vehicle is readily identifiable.

d) Coin and currency lying in and around toll collection facilities are the Authority's property. Any person other than an authorized Authority employee or agent who removes any coin from the pavement or from the ground surface within 25 feet of a toll collection facility shall be guilty of a petty offense.

e) No vehicle shall be driven through a toll plaza collection facility without payment of the proper toll. In the event of non-payment of the proper toll, as evidenced by video or photo surveillance system or toll collector's sworn statement, the registered owner of that vehicle shall, upon notice to the registered owner, be liable to make prompt payment to the Authority of the proper toll charge as well as applicable fines and fees. This subsection shall not apply if the driver of the vehicle is fined or otherwise penalized for the same violation under the Vehicle Code or other rule or regulation regarding failure to pay the prescribed toll.
