I-80 out over there. IA DOT is thinking they might turn I-80 across IA into a toll road, 250 miles worth. and charge .08 cents a mile for cars and .24 cents a mile for trucks!

HOLY COW!!!  .08 and .24 is almost grand larceny!  Even Illinois isn't that bad and they've had toll roads from the word go.
I'm thinking they're going to shoot themselves in the foot.  They'll be a lot of truckers taking side roads.....

Last year coming home from FL. driving I-69 crossing the bridge at Louisville signs were posted, Toll Bridge. We saw no where that toll was being collected. Then last summer we got a bill in the mail for the toll.
Early December 2017 we crossed going to FL. and again coming home, a couple home, no signs of toll, and no bill yet.
Is it still a toll bridge?
