SunPass

|
SunPass is an Electronic toll collection system in use by the State of Florida and was originally created by the Florida Department of Transportation and Florida's Turnpike. The system uses Amtech active RFID windshield-mounted transponders manufactured by Transcore along with lane equipment designed by several companies including SAIC and Transcore. SunPass-only toll lanes allow a vehicle to proceed through the tollbooth at speeds of up to 25 mph (40 km/h). SunPass is fully interoperable with E-PASS (from the Orlando Orange County Expressway Authority), O-PASS (from the Osceola Parkway), and LeeWay (from Lee County toll bridges).
SunPass customers must pay for the transponder and also pay a minimum opening balance to fund their tolls. Unused toll fees are only refunded if the user moves out of state or takes advantage of a money-back guarantee.
