Two Toll Tales: Online or By Mail
There are two main options for vanquishing your missed toll woes: venturing into the digital world or the trusty route of snail mail.
QuickTip: Look for patterns as you read.
Conquering the Online Toll Troll: The Oklahoma Turnpike Authority (who are actually very nice people, not trolls) has a user-friendly website where you can settle your dues with a few clicks. You'll need your license plate number, the date of your tollbooth faux pas, and a credit or debit card to appease the toll gods. This is generally the fastest and easiest way to go.
The Snail Mail Shuffle: For those who prefer a more low-tech approach, you can send a good old-fashioned check or money order to the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority. Be sure to include all the same information as the online option (license plate number, date, turnpike) so they can properly identify your toll booth transgression. Just remember, it might take a little longer to process.
Important Note: Don't forget the administrative fee that comes with a missed toll. It's kind of like a parking ticket for the highway, but hey, at least it's not a troll toll!
Tip: Slow down when you hit important details.
