Moo,omo,IMHO,A few things.....first of all...I used to live off legacy drive, very close to the shops of legacy..... It should take wayyyy less than 11 minutes to get on that tollway back tonallen, let's say maybe 3 min most. There are no gas stations nor places to get food from leaving the shops heading to toll way either.
As a local who has traveled the route from the Shops back to Allen many many times I will have to say you are incorrect, in my opinion and according to facts we can pull up quite easily. If you look at the NTTA system map, you'll see that if a person travels from Legacy north to 121 and then east, the FIRST toll plaza they pass through is located at Custer Road. NTTA does not document every vehicle as it enters of reaches the toll road from a side road. Toll plazas are either at OFF ramps or are main lane plazas like the one at Custer. Here is the link to show this https://www.ntta.org/roadsprojects/Documents/NTTA-System-Map_All-Projects_052512.pdf
That being said, there are a few options for travel which you can check out for yourselves on GoogleMaps or similar (I'm on my phone and not able to post a link as easily)
Try from shops at legacy to Custer and 121 which will give you travel times ranging from 8 to 14 minutes -- and a toll plaza is NOT passed through until reaching Custer no matter which route you opt for. Since the video time stamp was 3:57, and he wasn't even at his car, giving him a couple minutes to get in, etc and leave means that 11 minutes is certainly reasonable.
I think people are either confused as to how and where NTTA documents Travellers on the toll road, but I hope this clears that up.
