The Great E-ZPass Migration: You're in!
Here's the good news: You can ditch the anxiety! As of recently, your NJ E-ZPass is good to go on ALL toll roads in Florida. That's right, from Miami's glitz to Pensacola's historic charm, your little E-ZPass buddy can handle the tolls. It's like magic, except it involves radio frequencies and microchips, but hey, magic is fun too!
Double Trouble? Avoid the E-ZPass Pileup!
Tip: Don’t skip the details — they matter.
Now, here's a heads-up to avoid some toll booth drama. If you also have a Florida-based transponder in your car (like a SunPass), take it off! Having both E-ZPasses active can lead to double-billing, and that's about as fun as a sunburn on your nose. Think of it this way: one E-ZPass is your knight in shining armor, two is just confusing for the toll system.
So You Can Relax, But Not Too Much
Just because your E-ZPass works in Florida doesn't mean you can nap through the toll booths. Keep an eye on the signs – some lanes might be designated for SunPass only, so be sure to use the correct lane for E-ZPass. Also, make sure your E-ZPass account has enough funds to cover the tolls. A low balance is a party pooper for sure, and you might end up with a hefty violation fee.
QuickTip: Don’t skim too fast — depth matters.
