<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Can I avoid SH 71 tolls completely?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Yes, you can use the non-tolled SH 71 general purpose lanes that run parallel to the toll lane. However, you'll need to stop at traffic signals at FM 973 and SH 130, which can add 5-10 minutes to your travel time, especially during peak hours.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">What happens if I don't pay SH 71 tolls?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">Unpaid tolls result in violation notices with escalating fees. Pay By Mail customers have 30 days to pay before additional charges apply. Continued non-payment can lead to vehicle registration holds.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Is this the best route to Austin-Bergstrom Airport?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">The SH 71 Toll Lane provides the most reliable and fastest route to Austin-Bergstrom Airport from central Austin and points east. It bypasses traffic signals and provides direct access to Presidential Boulevard and the airport terminals.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Are there discounts for airport workers or veterans?</h3>
