Is it every toll?

It's the whole state and there are overhead signs confirming toll free. You are meant to just drive through without slowing down I think although a lot of people still slow down.

Yes we drive to Anna Maria island this morning from the airport hotel we had been staying in while power was restored to our gulf coast villa

Had the change ready and stopped at the toll booth before we saw the signs

You are meant to slow down to 25 mph if you are in a lane that has a toll window even if you aren't stopping. They are too narrow to drive through at full speed especially if the lanes merge back on the other side.

The main carriageway electronic only lanes are the only ones that are full speed.

As you say Donna the main difference between driving through the first one on the 417 after MCO where you drive through the left lanes at the legal speed limit and the one on the Osceola just west of the Loop where you need to slow to 25 mph.

Looks like we'll be using the latter again to get to B&BW as it seems the ones at Posner and Clermont have been closed.

Hope you stayed safe in your community. Our owners at Highgate only lost about three screen panels and they've been replaced already.

We drove down from Orlando to Miami on the turnpike on Saturday morning the signs said no tolls Northbound so I am expecting toll charges going south.

Sorry can’t get the link on the article to open!
