As are the roads. My point is this; if you want those that drive to pay the full cost of doing so then those who choose other forms of transportation should be willing to do so as well, however, no one is.
Truth is we all benefit from people haveing free access to highways (inclusive of surface streets) thus we all need to pay for it. Those that drive already pay more then those that don't thanks to taxs on fuel, vehicles themselves, and anything associated with the vehicle. |

| The worst thing about the 407 is how they hook up a tow chain to your car, drag you to the 407 and force you to drive on it. |

I love the 407.
I've had my transponder since it first opened and used to use it every day when I lived the Markham area. I still use it whenever I need a quick way to get across the top of the city.
My only complaint is that I wasn't offered participation in the investment fund that owns the 407. :D |

A little OT, but Jayx1, I appreciate your posts for one reason and one reason only: you do a great job of at least raising some awareness of the multitudes of issues around this city.
Its just a shame that you're the one to do it more than anyone else, and most have focused on your negativity.

However you do realize that by disallowing people to swap transponders you will be losing a tonne of business. How many times have i said to my friends "dont worry ill cover the toll" when i brought along the transponder in their car. Those people NEVER take the 407. Or in rental cars or for business.
Its a very bad policy |
1 trans registered for 1 plate.. its like 1 phone number for one phone.. same kind of deal lol stupid analogy but yeah.. lol |
