WTSP News (St. Petersburg) reporter Noah Pransky explains how a “$3.27 toll became a $48 bill overnight that he received in the mail.” (If you guessed rental car fees are involved, you’d be correct.) Pransky writes that only $3.27 of the $48.27 charged by his unnamed rental car company “was for the cost of the tolling; the other $45.00 was for ‘administrative fees.’ That’s $15.00 for every electronic tollbooth we drove through.”
