Virginia's governor has asked federal highway officials to establish tolls on Interstate 95 near the North Carolina border to pay for repairs that he says are sorely needed along the busy interstate.
The tolls of $1 or $2 for each axle would generate $30 million to $60 million annually, Gov. Bob McDonnell wrote in a letter to U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.
Virginia would be the only state south of Maryland to charge tolls on the interstate, which runs from Maine to Florida.
McDonnell said I-95 sees more accidents than almost any other major highway or road in the state.

A Good Idea?
Maybe Israel should adopt this idea for use between Israel-controlled and PNA-controlled roads?
