TXDOT Misses The Boat Again

The radio news informs me that TXDOT is lowering the fees they charge when somebody runs a toll booth without paying. They think lowering the dollar amount people have to pay is going to encourage more violators to pay up. The current fee is like $2 until you ignore their repeated "pay up" letters.

FAIL.

People don't pay tolls because they feel entitled to use the roads free. Lowering the fees isn't going to change much. Duh?

Oh well, at least all the denizens of the Republic can thank me for changing the law for their benefit.
