Not really much of a danger of it becoming universal with EZPass, because people hate toll roads so much (can you see Philadelphians sitting still for tolls on the Schuylkill Expressway?). But with the national ID, there is every danger that the necessity of having one would become near-universal; that is the very point of the national ID card.
