Everybody Should Pay The Toll!

Everybody keeps saying don't pay the toll in protest but I say pay your toll. The RITBA syas 40,000 cars pass over the bridge every day. If everybody paid their toll and dropped a dime out their window as they pass the toll shack that would leave 40,000 dimes a day in the road. The RITBA woud have to keep an employee at the shack just to sweep the dimes out of the road. Just think of the mountain of dimes in the road thay would have to keep cleaning them up just keep them from blocking the road. RITBA wants us to pay on the honor system and say it is our responsibility to pay the toll so whaen yo toss out your dime you are paying your toll now it will be their responsibility to have someone collect that toll. Take your EZ PASS out of your car and keep a handful of dimes in your cupholder so you can pay yor toll.
