Yes, Virginia, your E-ZPass could be deactivated if you don’t use it enough — even during a pandemic

An E-ZPass transponder.
Many Virginians aren’t using toll roads as much as before the pandemic, and the people that manage their E-ZPasses are deactivating their accounts for it.
“I’m curious how many other people this is happening to,” Brock Vergakis, a former Virginian-Pilot reporter, wrote via text along with a screenshot of a deactivation email from the operators of the transponders. “Such a pain.”
Virginia has long deactivated E-ZPass accounts after they’ve gone a year without going through a toll road. Since the pandemic is now more than 10 months old — with most people staying home more and avoiding travel — the number of people affected could be increasing.
