Seven Democratic state lawmakers are blasting the Florida Department of Transportation over the failure of the new SunPass tolling system.
At a news conference in Miami, the lawmakers called the SunPass faults "Tollgate," claiming that some residents have been double-billed. The lawmakers said FDOT is aware of the double-billing and hasn't done anything about it.
The lawmakers are calling on Governor Rick Scott to suspend toll collections until the Sunpass system is fixed.
They also want Scott to appoint an independent auditing panel to investigate FDOT's oversight of the system.
