You know that iritating feeling when youre on a road trip driving down the highway and you see a sign up ahed for tolls? So you spend the next 35 seconds trying to pull up to the toll while searching for the exact change so you dont have to break your precious 20 dollar bill? Theres a solution for that; its called Fast Lane or Easy Pass. Doesnt matter which one, they both work on major highways. Fast Lane and Easy Pass is a system that consists of a small device that you insert on the inside the windshield of your car. The device then corresponds with the sensors at the toll that electronically subrtact toll fares from your account that you have when your a member with these companies.
Easy Pass and Fast Lane also make it easier for your life because it charges you at a lower rate than regular toll fares. For example; Each toll fare varies from $1.25 to $3.00 depending on the cities value. Fast Lane however states one set price for the tolls that you go through, saving lots of money. Also, at the end of every month that you remain a member for Fast Lane, The amount of tolls they expect you to go through in one month is reimbursed to your account. Pretty cool huh?
So botton line is that everyone who is an advid driver (especially if you live at Nichols College) should obtain an Easy Pass or Fast Lane membership. It saves a lot of time and money on the run.

  1. I agree the fast lane pass is helpful. I just got one of these and it has help me form being late. There have been lots of times where traffic is so backed up that you won’t be able to move. With the fast lane pass you can skip all that and go on about your day. It’s cheaper too and better for drivers who use toll often. The company has deals that can be made depending on where you drive. I feel that everyone should be required to get a fast lane pass because it will spend up highway transportation. The ride will have less stress.
