Toll Calculation Examples

Example 1: Short Trip

You're driving from Orlando to Tampa, a distance of 120 miles on I-95. You're driving a car and will pay with a toll tag.

Toll Cost = (120 miles × $0.35/mile) + ($2.00 vehicle surcharge) - ($0.50 toll tag discount) Toll Cost = $42.00 + $2.00 - $0.50 = $43.50

The estimated toll cost for this trip is $43.50.

Example 2: Long Trip

You're driving from Los Angeles to San Francisco, a distance of 400 miles on I-5. You're driving a truck and will pay with cash.

Toll Cost = (400 miles × $0.40/mile) + ($5.00 truck surcharge) - ($0.00 cash discount) Toll Cost = $160.00 + $5.00 - $0.00 = $165.00

The estimated toll cost for this trip is $165.00.
