STDs - Travel info for OOT guests, is this too bossy?

I am starting to brainstorm for my STDs .

My fiance is from Maryland and most of his family will be traveling by car up to LI. I was thinking of suggesting in the 'Traveling section' of the STD that people get EZPass because it will save a good hour or more on the drive up.

I have done the MD-LI drive a million times and the commute was cut considerably with EZ Pass, especially at the bridges.

I want his family to have a good impression of the drive because we may move up to LI one day, so the quicker they make it there the less hard that decision will be one day.

Ok Im rambling but is this just too much info to put in the travling to LI section? Does it sound bossy?

I wouldn't say bossy, but it does seem unnecessary. I mean how often will people who live in Maryland need an EZPass? I think if they needed it they would have it already, since I'm pretty sure there is a Baltimore/DC equivalent.

Maybe you can write something like, 'Please note that the average time it might take to travel from Maryland to the wedding will be 4 hours using EZ-Pass. (If you do not have EZ-Pass, that time may increase by up to an hour.) It will be well worth the journey and we look forward to celebrating with you!' Let them figure it out!

Just an idea...
