Problems With Florida Toll Roads

Florida has several toll roads that just about every resident must use at some point in their life. The problem is that nothing is as it seems with tolls.


There is NO $100 Fine for a Toll Violation
Before you enter just about any toll booth you will see a sign that states there is a $100 fine for violating the toll. That is a lie. Maybe in some corner of an obscure statute it says that the fine is $100 but that is never what you face if you are cited for running a toll.

Just as a refresher - if your vehicle registration address is correct or, if you are a SunPass or E-Pass account holder, your account address is up to date then if you run a toll you will:

First receive a notice saying you ran a toll and ask for the toll amount plus a small administrative fee.If that is not paid you will receive another notice asking for the toll amount (e.g., $1.25) plus $25.Finally, if that is not paid a citation for $262 will be issued (not $100).
Having an Account With SunPass or E-Pass is Not Automat…

Passing Another Vehicle - Section 316.083, Florida Statutes

Passing other vehicles while driving occurs every day. We do it or have it done to us each time we drive. This is a breakdown of this seemingly benign law.

You can be going less than the speed limit, the speed limit, or more than the speed limit and still someone has to get where ever it is they are going sooner than your driving rate will allow.
Sometimes these people get upset or maybe it is just the way they drive. They tailgate you (prohibited under s.316.0895), driving seemingly only several inches from your rear bumper, or when they do pass they return to the lane you are in and come within inches of clipping the front end of your car.
My solution is to put some sticker on the back end of your vehicle that will give the reader pause and think you just may be crazy but that won't work on the real crazies. All you can do is drive defensively. The Correct Way To Pass Let…

Can I Use The HOV Lane?

I started this post thinking that it should be relatively easy to explain when you can use the HOV lane in Florida. Instead, I have come away more frustrated with the law, lawyers, legislators, and any big government advocate out there. This is a classic example of bureaucratic "___________" (input word here).
How Would You Write The HOV Law? Before we get into the baloney of how the Florida legislature wrote the HOV law, let's imagine that we wrote it or just imagine how you think it was written. With a little thought we would come up with something like:
HOV means High Occupancy Vehicle and that type vehicle can be any vehicle that has a driver and at least one passenger.HOV Lane means a lane designated for use by an HOV. A designated HOV lane requires that any vehicle driven in that lane have at least 2 people in that vehicle.If there is only one person in the vehicle while driving in an HOV lane that person is breaking the law and if caught shall be issued a ticket. …
