Each rental car agency has a different policy about paying tolls. Some will provide you with E-ZPass transponder tags. Make sure the company representative explains how to use these, and the fees and charges if any. You may also have the options of simply paying the tolls with cash, or paying the tolls with your own E-ZPass. However, if you have an E-ZPass account, never add the rental car's license plate number to your account. Click here for more information on Toll Roads in the USA.
