I wouldnt trust the 5-Star ratings, they are most likely employees or trolls.

2 stars is accurate for this road. The biggest points to make is the high price point which adds up quickly (avg. $2 every gate) tied to the poor driving habits (described below) and lack of enforcement on this road.

poor habits include:
- left lane riders. They believe it's empty for them to take and use at their leisure, going well under the suggest speed, blocking you from passing the truck on the right, who in fact can not go 75 for good reason. This will continue for 8 miles as you wonder "why isn't there a Keep Right Except to Pass sign anywhere?", not that these people will actually care, but it would help for starters. This is unacceptable, especially if you are PAYING to use an "express" service.

- enforcement is an issue. I do see State Troopers every now and again around the DIA exit, but I do not see them anywhere else. Furthermore, if I do see them, they are powerless to dis-encourage left lane riders. Ive seen 3 accidents on E-470 in the 2 years I've been using it. All 3 have involved a slower driver blocking the left lane, turning the passing vehicles (who otherwise were not aggressive) into being forced to be aggressive to avoid straight ramming the idiot off the road (slow driver just going to the left lane for no reason at all, randomly, and watching the car passing me *not excessively fast* having to slam on his breaks and getting rear ended because of the sudden slowing of pace.)

This road is plagued with clueless drivers most times and I can't justify a $60 bill every month for the service because of it.
