The act of quickly following a paying driver through a toll station before the cross member falls thus blocking your otherwise mad escape OR tailgating someone very closely through an EZ Pass lane with the same intent. This tactic can also be employed with great success exiting parking decks.

Thanks to my toll drafting skills I save over $350 dollars in tolls this year while only being hit with 2 fines worth $60 and making good time the EZ Pass lane to boot.
