Usually in my shrirt pocket, provided my shirt has a pocket. Your idea looks like a solution when there is no pocket.

I used 3M velcro and put it on my dash and on the card, works great! Using the same velcro for over 2 years now.

I tape mine to the outside of the driver's side door. I barely have to slow down! ;)

I drive a smart car and telephone with a smart phone and use smart navigation to get to where I'm going. So even when I'm driving by myself I'm still not the smartest one in the room.
I keep my smart card in a cubby hole on the left side of my dashboard.

I keep mine in the ash/change tray with a ribbon through the slot on the card. Also have tried not opening my window but placing it on the inside with success. Saves on the window motor etc.

We keep ours on the sun visor on cute little sunglasses clips. Easy to get in and out to use.

We have learned that if we drive close to the sensor, we only need to hold the gate card up to the window. No need to roll down the window and wave it.

Nice system for klutzy folks like me !

There is a little well in front of the gear shifter in my car. I keep it there along with the mailbox key. Just grab it when it's needed.

My husband's car has no such well. But he has a sunglasses compartment above the rear view mirror, and he keeps it in there.

Are you saying that you don't even need to turn the other cheek?

In a pocket in a pocket thing that slips over the sun visor. The card is clipped to an elastic cord that I bought at a dollar store five years ago. The visor thing I bought at Advanced Auto and it also holds a pen, a pencil, a little pad of paper, a comb and sunglasses

I have never had any luck just waving my card from inside the car, I know lots of people do, but not me!

oh, well, I just know I'll have to replace the motor on my driver's side window eventually......

I have placed ours inside the drivers door mirror. The outside mirror is always the closest part of our car to the card reader at each gate. We never roll the window down (very nice when it is raining.....) and the card is recognized the second we pull up to the gate.

If your comment was referring to my earlier post about taping it to the outside of the door and barely slowing down...I was just joking. :)

So they can steal a card and no longer have to push a button?
