Help with travel in Chicago?
I am traveling from O'Hare to Aurora. Do the toll roads take dollar bills and/or debit cards, or just change?

Automatic lanes take change only, manned stations take bills, too. Careful that you are not in an i-pass only lane!! (unless you have an i-pass). My parents go to chicago alot, so they have an i-pass. I however, do not.

It is always good to have both change and bills. Make sure you pay attention which lane you are going in. I lived in Florida and we had toll roads. Some have a Change Only lane and somebody got shot because they did not have the correct change and was holding up the line.

They do take dollar bills, but you will have to go through the Manual booths, and get change back. I dont think they take debit cards. I personally would take some quarters just in case- I am not sure about the exit you will be taking, but some of the exits only have unattended booths requiring you to have change. If for some reason you have to go through a booth without paying, take note of the phone number on the toll collector. Call that number when you return, and it will give you an address to send money to. You will need to send them a check, your license plate number, booth location, and date and time, which gets you out of receiving a ticket. I think you have 10 days to send in the $$.

It will be fastest if you use change. I know some people that just jump over into the i-Pass lane and drive on through. They have the canned, "I am from out of town and had no idea what was going on. There are so many cars!!! I'm sorry." Probably not the best/most ethical plan though. Have about $6 in change ready.
