I have not seen chains required on 101, but there are others here who have driven it more often than I have. I've seen it frosty and icy.

Random question: How long does it take for FasTrak to process a toll for a vehicle without a transponder? I was in the Bay Area for work yesterday, and I drove a rental car over the Carquinez Bridge. It had been a while since I'd driven eastbound on that bridge, and I had forgotten about the conversion to all electronic tolling. This morning, I set up a one-time payment account on the Bay Area FasTrak website, so hopefully that will cover it without getting the charge (and extra fee) from my rental car company. But I will also need to submit this toll charge for reimbursement through work, so was curious how long it might be until I get the receipt.

About a month. My wife forgot cash (this was when cash was still being taken) before COVID and we got a bill from using the eastbound Carquinez Bridge.

A month! :confused: I was hoping it'd be a week or so... I can't put off submitting the reimbursements that long.
I'll probably just eat the $7 then...I don't think I used the full meal per diem that day anyway, so I guess it still got covered in a way.

That's my impression as well. Structural issues aren't the issue as much as the feds want to dump ownership of the bridge onto UP. Currently, the Bureau of Reclamation owns the bridge and it is the only such structure on the Interstate system.
