Guidelines for Using Express Lanes

Usage Guidelines

The express lanes are for long distance trips.
You cannot exit the express lanes until you reach a designated exit point or the end of the lanes.
Do not attempt to cut through or drive over the plastic poles to exit the express lanes.
If you enter the express lanes by accident, stay calm and proceed to the nearest designated exit point or the end of the lanes.
Do not stop in the express lanes at any time, even if you are confused.
Pull over to a safe location outside the express lanes if necessary.
Weaving in and out of the express lanes is illegal. This can cause crashes and lead to fines and points on your license.
Be alert and pay attention to all overhead signs, signage, pavement markings, and posted speed limits.
Go to 95 Express Trip Options / Entry and Exit Points to see 95 Express entrance and exit points.

Tolls are collected electronically on the express lanes. Drivers who use the express lanes must own and display a SunPass® transponder. You can purchase a SunPass® transponder at Publix, CVS Pharmacies, or Florida’s Turnpike service plazas.
If you unintentionally enter the express lanes without a SunPass® or toll-free registration, you are still obligated to pay the toll. Toll payment instructions are available in the “Violations and Enforcement” section on this site.

If you are involved in a crash or your vehicle breaks down in the express lanes, pull to the left shoulder if you are able. Dial *FHP (*347) on your cellphone for assistance. Stay in your vehicle with the doors locked and wait for help. Do not stand outside your car near moving traffic.
