Red Maryland: Its So EZ To Hit Up Taxpayers
Because they care so much for “working families” the O’Malley administration is set to impose fees on EZ Pass users making their commutes to work more expensive.
The Maryland Department of Transportation is set to slap a $1.50 monthly fee on EZ pass tag holders and start charging $21.00 for the EZ pass transponder. Maryland has 530,000 EZ Pass users.
In addition to those new fees MDTA will also increase fees on vehicles on with three or more axles. ...

My wife called this to my attention the other day and we are less than pleased…
Ya know – this is nuts. Maryland should be encouraging the use of EZ Pass as it saves the state a great deal of money in personnel expenses and other assorted overhead with efficiency fueled by technology.

Despite the tough economic times, I knew Governor Martin O'Malley could never resist the urge to raise some form of tax/fee.

Maryland
should be encouraging the use of EZ Pass as it saves the state a great deal of
money in personnel expenses and other assorted overhead with efficiency fueled
by technology.
Bud may be on to something here. If a day were to be picked in which
“everyone” did NOT use their EZ Pass, the resulting traffic suggestion may wake
some officials up.
Others have suggested getting an EZ Pass from New Jersey , which I am
told does offer some sort of discount.
If anyone is aware of more information, perhaps they could share it with
all of us.

With a 2010 re-election date looming, his window of
opportunity would likely pass with the close of session in April. Low and
behold, O'Malley found his golden parachute.
Since an increasing number of motorists have discovered EZ Pass as a way to
avoid toll delays, O'Malley now figures everyone will happily fork over an
additional $18 a year for this supposed luxury.
Admittedly, I use EZ Pass more so for convenience than
necessity. Therefore, I will continue to use the system. That said, I will
return my current transponder to the Maryland MVA and order a new one through
the Pennsylvania
Turnpike Commission. As opposed to an $18/year fee, these guys only charge
$3. Although it's just a small savings, I figure the $15 is better suited for
my use than the state of Maryland 's.
