My understanding is that Florida is going to go to unmanned booths for tolls, either very soon, or 1st of year.

Missed a toll in Orlando on my way to TV last month. Thrifty is supposed to bill my credit card $25 -- but I haven't received the notice yet. Thrifty wanted $6.00 per day while I rented the car for a temporary Sunpass, but I declined as I was only going to use the tollway the 2 days I was in Orlando traveling to and from the airport. I was also told by Thrifty that all tolls in Florida will be unmanned by Jan. 1, 2013. Not great for the tourists...or TV wannabees flying in and out of Orlando.
