FasTrak - Tickets

I don't know why I should have these tickets when I have fast track . Is there something you can do about this ?

There was a bit of a mix up on this vehicle.

My husband bought it for me but the seller released the liability to him and it's made it difficult to register and theese tickets have put another stop on it. I paid and insured it but its still not in my name but the sticker is on it

I have a fee due and I received a email with I now believe could have been a scam

AI Highlights
  • - A text asked to pay $6.99 to fast track six by a deadline.
  • - I believe this could be a scam and want information from fast track.

I owe fast track six $6.99. I received a text saying I needed to pay it by the day.

I opened the text and I proceeded to give them the information they needed, but they said that my bank was not acceptable and asked me for another one.

I believe this could possibly be a scam. I need information from fast track.

Questions on the service are we allowed to drive in the carpool lane with our fast track?

AI Highlights
  • - Traffic slows before the fast track on the 91, then lanes move smoothly.
  • - Is carpool lane available with fast track, or would a longer fast track help?

I use my fast track on the 91 freeway. Almost every time I get on the traffic is pretty much stopped until we get to fast track and then all of the lanes are going smoothly.

And Im not sure why Im paying to get on fast track, because once your fast track ends on the 91 the traffic stops again. So were basically paying for nothing.

Are we allowed to use the carpool lane when we have fast track? Or maybe you need to have a longer fast track for the people who are actually paying for it.

Questions on the service

AI Highlights
  • - Can Fast Track be used in HOA lanes?
  • - Fast Track helps traffic, but when unavailable it slows or stops; extend Fastrak or allow HOA lane access.

Are we able to use the fast track in the HOA lanes?

It seems like when Im paying for the fast track lanes, regular traffic is always moving as fast as we are. And when fast track is no more the traffic stops.

Either they extend Fastrak or let us use The HOA lanes. After all, we are paying.

Pros:
  • Good to use when busy traffic
Cons:
  • Traffic never busy in the areas you have fast track

Preferred solution: Answers
