Whichever way you drive you are going to get hit by them, even if you are not heading in to town. Public transport is not the greatest and is not cheap. We now have a petrol car, we had a Nissan Leaf, but if you wanted to go away at the weekend you were not able to get far in it. They say the tolls are to reduce pollution and hence they are adding so many tolls. It will get to the point were there will be only electric cars on the road and then they will change the reason for the tolls and charge electric cars to “reduce congestion on the roads”. It is and always has been just another way to tax and squeeze as much money as they can out of the citizens.

I live in Tampa FL now but visit and used to live in Minneapolis and as I’m sure you know there are numerous overhead walk ways or tunnels in Minneapolis you can walk without going outside unless you want to and I usually did go outside.
