Toll Violation Information

All drivers on the Illinois Tollway system are required to pay the proper toll indicated by signs posted at toll plazas. Failure to pay the proper toll will result in the issuance of a Notice of Toll Violation requiring the registered owner of the vehicle to pay fines, as well as the unpaid tolls at the cash rate.

Under the Illinois Tollway's regulations, Notices of Toll Violation are sent to customers who accumulate three or more toll violations over a two-year period.  Under the new 90-day policy, the Tollway will send out a violation notice within 90 days of the user's third violation within a rolling two-year period.

A Notice of Toll Violation will come in the mail and includes a photo of one of the violation events that the Illinois Tollway has on record, as well as details of the date, time and location of each violation event. Example Notice

Pay a Toll Violation

Pay your toll violation immediately. You will need your violation notice number, plate number and plate state/type.

If you are an I-PASS, E-ZPass or i-Zoom customer, whose account is in good standing at the time of the violation(s), you do not need to schedule a hearing.
