Q. Can I use the transponder I purchased for my car to tow a trailer?
You may use the transponder from your passenger vehicle to tow a trailer providing that you list the trailer plate number on your FAST LANE account. FAST LANE will automatically count the number of axles and charge your account accordingly. Outside of Massachusetts, you will need to go through a multi-mode lane (one that accepts both cash and E-ZPass) in order for the toll attendant to reclassify your tag for that toll transaction. You may also purchase a second transponder (VRC for the total number of axles) to keep going through an electronic lane. Remember to keep one of the transponders in a foil pouch to prevent it from reading if you have both of the tags with you. "

I think you weren't allowed to do that when I first got mine. Apparently that has changed.
