I think the raising of the transponder price unexepectedly is a little unfair but I applaud the legislature for ending token use sooner rather than later. I guess people will have to take advantage of the discounted transponder price right away. It made no sense to have a 50% discount for tokens and only a 30% discount for EZ Pass because there was no incentive to buy an EZ Pass transponder. Now that tokens are going to be gone by Sept. 1 and no longer in use by Jan. 1, 2006 people should be more willing to make the switch saving time, money and helping the enivronment by not idling needlessly at the toll booth.
