About E-ZPass.

What is E-ZPassÂ® and how does it work? E-ZPassÂ® is an electronic toll collection system, which takes cash, coins and toll tickets out of the toll collection process. Instead, drivers establish an account, prepay tolls and attach a small electronic device to their vehicles. Tolls are automatically deducted from the prepaid account as an E-ZPassÂ® customer passes through the toll lane.
E-ZPass is a regional electronic toll collection system that can be used throughout New York State and beyond. Join the millions of customers already enjoying the benefits of E-ZPass.
