Right before we met with our attorney for our Chapter 13 consult we got a $800 bill from the Illinois Tollway due to an issue with an old transponder. We didnt dispute any of the charges but didnt notice an issue as my car's transponder worked normally just not my wifes. I asked him what he would like me to do with this and his response was very direct and interesting. "Do everything in your power to be on a positive note with them and take nothing into the bankruptcy with the tollway. They will apply extensive legal and late fees to the account and you will pay dearly."
I called the Tollway and talked to an awesome guy. I told him I didnt dispute anything at all and asked if they could do something about the late fees and I agrees to square up right away. They offered me $105 instead of the $800 which I jumped all over. I have experienced they are nice people. I think if you reach out and tell them you want to square up and explain whats going on they will figure it out. Good luck!
I will also agree with this, they can give you a lot of issues with your driving abilities.
