While there is no such thing as a free road, we should not be charged additional fees to travel on certain highways within our state. The Naysayer will argue that over half of the revenue generated from our turnpikes comes from commercial vehicles from out of state. This statement is simply a lie. I challenge each of you to be more observant and aware of how we are taxed. We live in country that I am certainly thankful for. We have freedoms like no other place on the planet. But with freedom comes responsibility and Oklahoma is not being responsible with its taxpayers money. It is time we as individuals stand up and let lawmakers know we won

My name is Zach Estes and I am a college student in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I am tired of our state collecting turnpikes fees and it is time for it to STOP!

Around 1955-56, an announcement came over the ok. city WKY TV station that bonds had been approved for the OKC to Tulsa Turnpike, to be paid off in so many years. My dad turned to me and said, "watch that turnpike, It will never pay off" and sure enough we still pay.

I feel penalized for living and driving in this state. I like the idea of issuing free pike passes when vehicle tags are renewed. Out of staters expect to pay tolls, etc. when traveling. Residents who pay state taxes should at least be able to drive around their town and the state they live in without extra charges.

Visiting my mom at the cancer treatment center, ran through a poorly marked toll booth on the way to the aquarium. I'm sure my car was caught on camera but what can I do now Just wait for the ticket in the mail I guess. OK is not OK!
