A toll you were billed wrong on could not be collected after two years
What it does
The bill would bar a toll project entity from collecting or attempting to collect an unpaid toll more than two years after the date the toll was incurred. That limit would apply only when the entity failed to solicit payment from the person during those two years because of a billing or other error that was not the person's fault. It would also cover unpaid tolls that are still pending on the date the law takes effect, whether the toll was incurred before, on, or after that date. The bill would take effect September 1, 2027.
What it means for your community
If you drove a toll road and were billed wrong, the operator would have to stop trying to collect that unpaid toll after two years. Drivers and companies whose vehicles run toll routes would get a clear deadline, so an old billing mistake could not be chased indefinitely. The protection would cover tolls already waiting to be paid when the law takes effect. Right now this is a proposal, so it has to be voted on before it changes anything for you.
