i'll gladly pay bridge toll ...

... to get from Point A to Point B in the BA.

In SD, I haven't paid a bridge toll since the SD-Coronado Bay Bridge stopped collecting toll (06/27/02).

In the BA, I'll have that stash of $1 bills for the 7 (of 8) bridges I'm sure to cross --- Dumbarton, San Mateo-Hayward, SF-Oakland Bay Bridge, Golden Gate, Richmond-San Rafael, Carquinez, and Benecia-Martinez. (I don't expect to cross the Antioch ... I didn't even know it existed!)

Forget the stash of ones. Invest in a FasTrak pass for your car- www.bayareafastrak.org.

It is an electronic pass that works on almost all the toll bridges in the Bay Area. You can go through without stopping, and there are lanes that are FasTrak only so you get to pass the people with the pile of ones waiting to pay!

Steve in E - Thank you for that great advice! Actually, I am getting my hybrid car sticker - FINALLY! (...despite the fact that I have had the car since March 2001). This deserves a post! (and thanks for checking in!) - S.
