question:
Comment: My cynicism with tolls arises from the bogus promise to dedicate the money to transit.  I can't think of any scheme where politicians promised to dedicate the money to a single issue where they didn't simply dip in and use the money to cover their incompetence on other files.  As evidence of this, where does the money from driver licences and car registration go?  It's suppose to be used for transit issues but I suspect just goes into general revenues to be used for whatever the government decides.  Don't buy the dedicated fund bs, it's just smoke and mirrors.
answer:

Non-threat
