In the second half of 2022, “orphan transactions” averaged less than 1/100th of one percent of all express lane transactions, but was that number rising?

Q: I have noticed an increasing trend of people defacing their license plates by removing the coating. I am told that this is done to make it harder for license plate readers and toll cameras to recognize the license numbers.

This location operates 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
