Gone With the Wind (Cash That Is): The Rise of Cashless Tolling
First things first: Oklahoma is phasing out cash toll booths faster than a politician forgets a campaign promise. So, while some cash booths might still be around, it's best to be prepared for a cashless adventure. Enter PlatePay, a system that captures your license plate like a lovestruck teenager at a selfie station.
The Gateless Gamblers: PIKEPASS and Its Posse
If you're a frequent flyer on Oklahoma's turnpikes, consider a PIKEPASS (get it? Like pike...on a turnpike? No? Moving on). This little electronic gizmo sticks to your windshield like a stubborn relative at a holiday gathering, and lets you zoom through toll plazas without stopping. Think of it as an EZ-Pass with a twang. Out-of-staters, fear not! Some compatible transponders from other states like K-Tag and TxTag can also be used.
But wait! There's more! PIKEPASS offers discounts for high rollers (frequent drivers) and even works in parts of Kansas and Texas. Basically, it's the mullet of toll tags: business in the front, party in the next state over.
QuickTip: Read step by step, not all at once.
