Map out your course, making sure to note necessary highway entrances and exits. Bring quarters or change with you to pay for the small tolls that require you to pay before entering instead of paying as you exit. Some tolls allow you to pay with a credit card or a prepaid or pay-as-you-go toll pass.
Find the exit you get off of on the card that you receive from the toll booth when entering the toll road. The toll card provides you with the names of the exits on the toll road and the fee per exit. Alternatively, you can search for the toll road online to calculate the tolls beforehand. See Resources for the New York State Thruway Authority Toll Calculator.
Look to see how much it costs to get from where you entered onto the toll road to your exit. The tickets vary by design. For example, both the 1-90 ticket in New York and the Ohio Turnpike ticket give you a price based on where you entered. Then, you just need to determine your exit, look to the right of the location and it lists a price. For the I-90 ticket, if you get on in Buffalo and exit in Leroy, you will need to pay $1.80. For the Ohio Turnpike ticket, if you get on at Exit 2 and get off at Exit 52, you will owe $2.00. If you have a larger vehicle like a trailer truck, you will owe $3.35.
