One reason they do this is to discourage people going through the airport to bypass the heavy traffic on the nearby roads. During the recent road construction at the north end of the airport I cut through DFW several times. Without a tolltag about one third of the time there was no toll. one third cost one dollar, and one third two dollars for the same trip from one end of the airport to the other.
