RITA says electronic tolling in US now at 93% - another federal survey messes up
By Peter Samuel on October 26, 2011
RITA is not the name of a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. It's a federal agency you probably never heard of before - we hadn't - and stands for Research and Innovative Technology Administration. Part of USDOT, RITA has just released a survey of electronic toll collection technologies and how widely they're deployed across the US.
FHWA toll $-statistics a mess - they say tables linked improperly (ADDITION)

'Revenues used for highways, all levels of government' have a column Road and Crossing Tolls that has $861m of tolls collected in Alabama. (We'll go through the suspects states in alphabetical order.) See FHWA response at end in FOLLOWUP.
