This is a problem I could see on Deerfoot. There are to many ways to get off and go to the next exit if there was a toll in between them.

It's a good system. It's only one lane, HOVs don't pay, single occupant vehicles pay a variable toll for each stretch. The toll is more expensive during greater congestion. It's all done with transponders:

This looks good but my question is if you are in the HOV lane and need to get over to the ramp that is on the right how do you merge into traffic that is standing still without backing up the traffic behind you?
