Summary

Their error, their loss. Starting September 1, 2027.

The bill bars toll road operators from collecting an unpaid toll more than two years after it was incurred if the operator never billed the driver during those two years because of its own billing or other error. It touches toll project entities and drivers who get surprise old toll bills they were never sent. Starting September 1, 2027, those stale, never-billed tolls can no longer be collected, including tolls already pending on that date.
