This is new info to me, so I thought I share it here for Bayarea SDers. If you own and EV with a CAV decal, you can apply for a CAV specific Fastrak to get 50% discount at toll bridges. You will need to upload your DMV-issued CAV Certificate for the application.
Application Link [bayareafastrak.org]
Bridge Tolls
All seven state-owned bridges have at least one FasTrak-only lane in operation. For CAVs to be eligible to receive the discounted carpool toll rate at the state-owned toll bridges, you must:
- Display valid clean air decals
- Have a FasTrak account in good standing
- Travel through a designated carpool lane
State-owned bridges include Antioch, Benicia-Martinez, Carquinez, Dumbarton, Richmond-San Rafael, San Francisco-Oakland Bay and San Mateo-Hayward.
Golden Gate Bridge doesn't get any CAV discount.

And I really hated fasttack. 680 always has issue with scanning my toll tag and will charge me. 880 has no issue. If you have fast track, I recommend check the balance regularly. If the charges are based on license plate number, that means you could be charged even though if you multiple occupants.

They will even mess something up on their end, make you pay a DMV registration hold, then make you call 5-6 times over the next 6 months to resolve it.
Many tricks including get you off the phone saying it has been fixed but now that there are like 7 agencies they just send you back and forth between the agencies too!

The discount is only applicable when HOA times are enforced. That means weekends and off peak times are not valid.

Replace your license plate with a fake temp plate that was clearly printed at home for 100% off:

Now that's a slick deal.

Sounds about right.
