    The important thing to consider, before deciding on this or that, is whether that bridge is worth paying anything. Ask yourself...
    Ha ha ha!

    The Golden Gate Bridge is owned by the GG Bridge district. All of the other bay area bridges are state owned.

    I wonder if they make them with stripes so at least they will match my track suit?

    Just pay it. Think of it as a loan with high interest.

    I have an ongoing issue with pa toll roads, someone keeps running the gate at exit 57 and I get the tickets for $657 for it each time. The pictures are blurred but reconginzed by the system as my trailer, you can barely make out the same last group of numbers on the plate as mine, pa keeps saying it is my trailer but I keep sending them proof that it isn't mine (my trailer has barn doors and the one in the picture has a roll up door) and trailer is somewhere else (across the entire country working in Arizona) when this happens. Pa says it is an automated system and are not really concerned about it, while my state is telling me that all states on their trailer plates have unique numbering system at the same time pa sent me another ticket that I got yesterday.

    call and get it down to 26 and pay it. Or do it my way of waiting till it gets built up to $200 then pay and complain to everyone I see about it. Feels like I get more for my money that way.

    Some wouldn’t be shamed by that, even with matching shower shoes.

    I am upset that you are enduring losses of that magnitude. You have satellite in your trucks? Maybe you can call them in Qualcomm to put a geo fence one hour around that 57 so anyone in your truck that breaches it will essentially be caught in some way.

    I would strongly suggest paying it. These things have a way of coming back and biting you in the ### years later if you ignore them.

    I have to laugh at people who complain about bridge tolls in CA. The toll roads in some other states make these bridges seem cheap by comparison.
