Fast Lane

Does anyone know if there's a way to use a Fast Lane pass in a Zipcar?

Last weekend I rented a car from Hertz, and for the heck of it, called Fast Lane to see if I could add the plates to my old Fast Lane account, left over from when I owned a car. Yes, I could, and for the weekend I zipped through the tolls with no problem.

But can you do this with Zipcar? The Fast Lane webpage says you cannot add commercial plates to an individual account, so it seems you can't use the pass.

If anyone knows a solution, or would like to help lobby the Mass Pike people for a solution, let me know.

I think this would be a great idea too - You don't need cash to get into a zipcar, so why should you need some to drive on a toll highway? It would be great if Zipcar could work out a deal with Fast Lane to put units (unless, for some reason, they conflict with the Zipcar entry units.. they do seem pretty similar) in all the cars, and the tolls used would just be added to the appropriate members' invoices. It'd be a great convenience, especially since Fast Lane should work with EZPass and vice versa.
