EZ Pass

Electronic toll device

EZ Pass is an electronic toll collection system used on highways and bridges in the eastern United States.

A small transponder mounted on a vehicle's windshield communicates with sensors at toll plazas, automatically deducting tolls from a prepaid account: I breezed through the toll booth with my EZ Pass.

The system eliminates stopping to pay cash.

Also spelled E-ZPass.
