The Law
If the toll prices make you angry, you better keep it to yourself when interacting with the toll collector. An old state regulation addressing public disturbances extends to toll booths, categorizing loud swearing at state transportation employees as a breach of the peace. Paying the fare with a foul mouth could historically earn you a citation.
