I was surprised to see that I was charged 3 times in 5 minutes for a total of $2.21.
That seems quite high for about 7 miles.

I tried a live chat, but it wouldn't allow my inquiry to be submitted.
I'll try to call them tomorrow to see if they have a malfunction with their new system.

So if you travel that way to Sanford Airport or I-4 check your account.
How much time do you save by taking the toll road? If you save 15 minutes each way, that gives you 30 minutes more time to spend in Daytona, maybe it's worth it. If the alternate route has lots of stops and starts, you may be saving on gas and wear & tear on your car.
