Toll hikes voted by the Mass Turnpike Board (along with its new slogan: “If you have to ask how much, you should be hitchhiking”) have given new meaning to the term “road rage.” But there are ways to beat the system. Here are just a few:

  • Find a 13-year-old computer geek who can re-program your Fast Lane device.

  • Learn the toll collector’s secret Teamster wink.

  • Sign up for the Backstroke-to-Logan shuttle

  • Trade your car in for a fire engine.

  • Carpool with an elected official.
