That was Very nice of someone at Fast Track to actually Help you,they give plenty of notice that This is a Toll Road,when and who to call to pay,but you thinking that EZ pass was the same is understandable.You'll know by email,what the charge is very quickly.Happy travels,glad California didn't rip you off completely
Toll roads are the was to go - you can also use online if driving one way. Super simple. Flashing lights at each of the check points are a good indication that you are on the toll roads.
Thanks for the info!
Good to know. I have EZ Pass and would just assume it works everywhere.
We also assumed that EZ Pass works in California. It was nice that Florida accepted EZ Pass many years ago. Had we gone through the toll both, we would have made the payment then and there. We think these were all electronic tolls.
Typically there are many signs informing commuters of the tolls, and the methods of payment. Last time I was travelling in and out of state, I just downloaded the app. So now I have an account and the toll shows up in the account, and I can pay it promptly, I definitely recommend the app - makes life super simple.
Thank you for letting us know about the app. We will check it out.
California doesn't WANT out of state people to visit their state, just look at the cost of the RV parks, fuel, and the closing of many boondocking locations. I have also seen that they are going to prohibit vehicles that use diesel fuel in the next few years, which pretty much eliminates many RVers from the state. I lived in the state (and loved it) for nearly 20 years in the past, but I left in 2004 and have no intentions of ever returning. It is NOT the same state it was prior to 2000!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for posting. We’re going to CA this summer, so it’s good to know. It sounds like this was a late penalty imposed because you didn’t see the bill for a few months. I’m assuming that you hold your mail. I’d love to see this problem with mail delivery and how members go about this. We’ll be gone 4 months moving from one place to another as we all do. Our mail can only be held for 1 month at a time. So what does everyone do?
Hello. Definitely set up CA toll account before your travel. The year prior we had our mail forwarded to our daughter's address which were allowed up to 6 months. This year, we paid our neighbor's son to collect our mail. We also pay him to mow our grass and plow our driveway. There are some mail services we are looking into like the mail service offered by Escapees RV Club and so on.
Oh wow! Good thing they able to lower the price and solve the problem.
We were glad that they had the $50 option. A lot less than the $300.
@@tdadventures YES!!
Yikes indeed! A tough lesson learned. You did got the lesser cost alternative. Have you used the transponder this year? Enjoyed the music through Troma. Was that last year?
Hi Jeff. Hi Karen. We tried to peel the barcode/transponder from previous OnTour 2.0. We could not stick it on the new van. When we left San Diego, we went East on route 8 to avoid any CA electronic tolls. The drive through Trona, CA was from last year. We have so much content, can't edit fast enough.
Too bad they don’t have one pass that covers the United States?
Totally agree that there should be one pass that covers the United States. So glad that Florida finally accepted EZ Pass after many years of not accepting it.. California needs to get on board.
Bummer
Hi Colette. Thanks goodness we were a given cheaper option to pay less and open an account. It was good to see you.
👍 tho wait to California gets a better governor they call him Gruesome Newsom fir a reason
Wow! That's crazy. When I saw the title, my first thought was: What did you two kids got yourself into now?😉🤣 We got a ticket when we went to California because we didn't turn our wheel in the right direction when parked uphill. 🙂
Hahaha !! Sovann, you made us laugh !! So sorry to hear that you got a ticket for not turning the wheel in the right direction when parked uphill!! bummer !!
