So I know alot of you live in NJ. And most of those who don't are in NY so here's a question. Have you ever recieved a speeding ticket for going too fast BETWEEN toll booths...for example you get on the Turnpike and drive to the bridge speeding the whole way but not getting caught by a cop and then you go through another ezpass booth...has anyone ever gotten a ticket from doing that?
**it's for a report I'm doin for school about government surveilance. I just wanted to know if it was something they actually did or if it was just rumor.
I hold the dubious honor of being the only person never modded who has also never been to a party who in the past had a shared account with a vegetable reference that has had consensual sex with a woman who wasn't from the board that also knows what >) means and remembers the end of the golden age.

i have also heard that.. but it wasn't for ezpass but for some other ticket system in another state.
Thank you. This has been a public service annoucement brought to you by Ronin, your favorite neighborhood mercenary.

I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

I believe it is true. It hasn't happened to me, but I'm almost positive that someone told me that they got a ticket that way a few years back in Boston.
I'd just call up the various turnpike authorities and confirm it

If the assholes who run those programs could figure out a way to do it, it would be in place already. As an additional stream of resources for money hungry do nothings, they'd be all for it.

the more I think about it, the less I think it's real. Sure, EZpass would get a lot of ticket revenue, but eventually people would just stop using EZpass and go back to paper tickets if they were getting fined $150 a month in tickets. So then the transit authority would lose all of the efficiencies and cost savings from having the system.
Additionally, they could have done the same thing with paper tickets. You get a ticket, it's encoded with a time. You give the ticket back at the next toll, they should be able to fine you.
Probably not real.

EZ Pass does not work in my area. Every exit I get off theres a huge bottleneck and endless lines of people waiting to get through the expass lanes. I use the tickets and go right by those fools everyday.

I know they give you a warning for speeding. If you exceed the number of times they allow you, they can take away your pass.
