Travelling on a toll road is not "breaking a law" unless you fail to pay - and then you would not be booked under a traffic law, well not here.
Regional semantics. Colorado won't let you renew your registration after toll violations, Oklahoma makes you pay the toll and asseses steep fines, plus 3 points on your license for skipping toll: If you drive to Joplin from OKC with a clean license and take the Turner, Creek and Rogers turnpikes and don't pay toll, you won't have a driver's license before you even reach the state line, and it'll take a few months for enough points to expire to get it back!
