# WA TollView
WA TollView helps Washington drivers decide whether to use the Express Toll Lanes (ETL) or stick to the General Purpose (GP) lanes. Powered by real-time data from the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) APIs, the app provides:
- Current toll prices
- Approximate time savings
- Implied time cost (dollars per minute saved)
You decide what makes a toll “worth it” — WA TollView simply helps you act on it.

## Use Case
WA TollView is ideal for drivers who:
- want to optimize their commute based on value
- prefer to avoid tolls unless time savings are substantial
- like knowing what they’re paying for
- are, like me, an economics nerd
