In the case of an unsuccessful toll transaction using the I-PASS, an unregistered vehicle will be subject to toll violations and fines." You must register any vehicle using the transponder to the I-PASS account. "Can I use my I-PASS in multiple vehicles? In a rental car? The Illinois Tollway clearly states in the I-PASS FAQ: On top of it there's not a thing I can do about it. What upsets me most is that PlatePass obviously has an agreement in place with the Illinois Tollway that gives them billing priority over MY I-PASS account when it comes to video tolls. I have rented other vehicles from Hertz with a PlatePass transponder and I have simply kept the little box on the windshield closed to prevent it from being read. He said he had seen Hertz cars equipped with I-PASS/EZPASS transponders and, if that was the case, the terms were spelled out. Since I had tossed the rental agreement, I spoke with the rental office and was told by the branch manager that the agreement contains nothing about PlatePass.

Instead I later received a charge from PlatePass on the credit card I used for the car rental for $10.80 (80 cents for the toll and a service fee of $2.50/day times 4 days - the full length of the rental). Since the car was properly registered, I expected the toll to show up later as a video toll (vToll) and that to be the end of story. The car I rented was not equipped with any other transponder and displayed no logos or information about any toll payment service.Īfter my trip was complete I noticed that all of the tolls registered correctly, save one near O'Hare.
I brought my own I-PASS transponder along for the trip, and prior to entering Illinois, I properly mounted the transponder, went to the Tollway website, and registered the rental car to my I-PASS account.
I recently rented a car from Hertz in Minnesota and drove through Chicago en route to Michigan.
