Short cars can now be marked for discounted ferry fares


March 20, 2012 · 10:31 AM

Vehicles under 14 feet long can now receive a special windshield sticker from Washington State Ferries to verify they are eligible for the shorter vehicle fare.

According to a WSF announcement, ferry terminals now have laser measuring devices to confirm vehicle lengths. To have a vehicle measured and get a sticker, ferry riders should make an appointment or arrive 30 minutes before their desired sailing. For more information or to make an appointment, call 464-6400.
