What happens if I drive through a toll without my E-ZPass?

When a vehicle passes through a toll facility without an E-ZPass, the toll authority typically utilizes a system known as photo tolling or toll by plate. In Maryland, if a driver does not have an E-ZPass account or if their E-ZPass transponder does not register correctly, a picture of the vehicle's license plate is taken as it passes through the toll. Following this, a bill is usually sent to the registered owner of the vehicle based on the license plate information. The toll amount may also be higher for those who do not pay using an E-ZPass account, as the rates for E-ZPass customers are often discounted compared to the standard toll rates applied to non-E-ZPass users. It is essential for drivers to ensure that their E-ZPass transponder is functioning correctly and that their account information is up to date to avoid any inconvenience.
