Free flow tolling commenced on 1 July on the Gateway and Logan Motorways.
But at the first toll plaza on the Logan Motorway, only one of the four booths is a free flow, drive-straight-through arrangement.
This means that drivers who have done the right thing and pre-purchased a transponder have to join a lengthy single-file queue, while the motoring recalcitrants have the easy choice of THREE lanes.
Something doesn't make sense with this arrangement.
Sure, there needs to be some temporary measure for the drivers who still have to buy a transponder but the number of available lanes should be reversed so that the people who have done the right thing, get a smooth and easy ride through at least three of the lanes at the toll plaza.
Why should drivers without transponders have the choice of three lanes while the ones with transponders get the rough end of the Motorway pineapple.
Bloody hopeless!
