Starting in 2023, Florida has made changes to the way it charges tolls with drivers expected to get a bit of a break when it comes to the state's many toll roads.
Senate Bill 6-A, introduced by state Sen. Nick DiCeglie, R-Indian Rocks Beach, will provide account credits to drivers who frequently use toll roads across the sunshine state.According to the bill, the program will give drivers in the state with 35 or more toll transactions per month a 50% credit to their account. The legislation, originally proposed by Gov. Ron DeSantis in September, was successfully passed during the recent legislative special session.
Erin Maroon agreed. She recently received an email from the Florida Department of Transportation telling her that as a frequent commuter she qualifies for the toll break. Isabel Nodal, a college student, is another driver who said she's thrilled about the toll relief program. The toll costs alone costs Nodal $22 each way. It's a cost she pays several times a month in addition to filling her tank with gas.According to the Florida Department of Transportation, more than 1.2 million Floridians will qualify, saving them on average $400 in 2023.There is one portion of the bill commuters said they aren't thrilled with. The relief program will expire on Dec. 31, 2023.
