SONNY CORLEONE WOULD STILL BE ALIVE
IF HE HAD E-ZPASS
by Charles E. Galvin
CEO, E-ZPass Group
Over the years, I’ve watched The Godfather more times than I can count.
It is, without a doubt, a crown jewel of American cinema.
No matter how many times I see it, though, there’s one part I can never make it
through without getting a little lump in my throat.
That’s because with each viewing, I become more convinced that had Sonny Corleone
been driving a car equipped with E-ZPass, he would still be alive today.
You recall the iconic scene: With tensions rising between the Five Families,
a trap is laid for Sonny, who, shortly after handing a bill to a man
behind a tollbooth, is brutally gunned down by rival gangsters.
It’s a hard two minutes for anyone to watch, but for me, the chief executive
of a multistate electronic toll-collection system, it’s especially tough.
The essay continues here.
