You know i think that is really fair. If someone has a stagnant account charging a fee sounds resonable. If someone is usig there EZ Pass then dont charge them, or perhaps discount them since they are saving the state money in normal toll maintance.

I looked at the Mass. website the other day, it looks like they do something very simular. WV lets you pay $95 a year that allows you unlimited toll use in the state, kind of like how mredskins mistakenly thought the $1 per month would allow......
