It was one of those ones without people and the lights weren't working or something so I thought it wasn't operational. Then I saw other people stopping to pay, so I backed up to an empty booth and paid. It was a bit awkward and embarassing. That I-pass thing is great. I'm from Michigan and don't go into Illinois often enough to have one, but, if you commute a lot on toll roads, you save a lot of money with the I-pass discount.
