How does Ez-Pass NJ calculate how much to take from your account based on usage.?

Question

They take more and more every time they refill from my bank account and my usage remains just about the same. when I call all they can tell me is that the system does it automatically and there is nothing they can do.

Answer 1

The price varies depending on what time you are going through the tolls. You can check this website to see the cost for tolls when paying with EZ-Pass..

Definately check the EZPass statement when it comes in the mail to make sure everything's okay.

Answer 2

depends on the vehicle you are in......when I drove a truck we had EZ PASS and it charges by the axles on a semi.......start at point A get off at point B they have a rate schedule set up....however I am sure you are getting a discounted price for your service vs the person that pays at the cashbox...... say it cost 1.00 (example) and you have 50.00 on deposit......you only go to an exit that would cost you .50 that's what would be deducted..... ez pass would also work at some scale houses for semi's that is like the west coast pre-pass....they are trying to bring it all into one technology and interlink the whole toll road system and scales with one provider ie; EZ PASS......hope that helped.....you can google ez-pass and see if they have more documentation on this
