Canadian drivers and toll roads
Just curious.. I read an article today that reports that Canadian drivers who pass under those overhead plate readers and don't have an EZpass sticker are not being billed. This is because the Canadian/Ontario government has not agreed to give our authorities the information on the driver/owner associated with the vehicles. So the Canadians just pass thru and never get a bill. On the other hand, Americans driving in Canada are being billed as apparently we have given them the data they need.
This is a bridge toll near Buffalo, but soon the entire NYS Thruway will convert from human toll collectors to electronic. So my question.. If you are driving a Canadian plated car in Florida, do you get to not pay our tolls as they can't find you? or does Florida have an agreement in place to send bills to Canada?

I am a Canadian. I have never heard any of my Canadian friends say that they have driven through a toll booth without stopping . The last thing any Canadian wants to do is get in any trouble with the law in USA. We want the privilege of being allowed into the Country. I cannot imagine anyone running through a toll booth to save a few dollars. It just wouldn’t happen.

Correct. There is no toll booth and no human, just an overhead automated system to read the plate or EZpass then using plate to owner data charge the toll. See photo.

Not supposed to drive under at full speed, there is 25 mph speed limit. In Oklahoma If you drive through without paying alarm goes off and photo taken.
