Tolls: Even More Expensive Than You Might Have Thought!

Tolls cost in more ways than you might think
It might be time to rethink raising tolls. Originally I was just worried that it would just raise the cost of goods and services...and it will. I never even took into account the impact it would have on off road businesses along the highway.

Well, according to The Trucker, tolls are going to have a huge 'toll' on roadside businesses. The I-95 tolls will charge truckers money just to exit the highway and even more money to get back on. On top of that, there is the cost of the toll to be on the road.


So now your $6 McLunch is going to run you something more like $10 or more. The tolls are there to raise revenue but tax revenue losses will increase because of all the businesses that will be starved of customers.
