During the past 10 years, the Illinois Tollway has hiked toll fares four times. Today, tolls sit at $1.50 minimum, up $0.80 a decade earlier. Revenues collected from tolls and fines for missed tolls have gone up 90% in those 10 years.

Crazy thing is the Illinois tolls were supposed to be "free" starting in 1973, but it's nearly 50 years later and these tolls still want your soul
