Default 1999 accord VTEC problem

1999 honda accord ex sedan L4 2.3cc vtec Since last October, check engine has come on 4 times (most recent yesterday), all at VN bridge toll plaza e-pass lane. 3 times for sure code P1259 showed up. Twice (10/07 and 2/08) had vtec solenoid valve and switch changed. I commute 25 miles each way, highway driving. Car has approx 70,000 miles, had 35,000 when given to me c. 8/05. Has anybody out there heard of this type of problem? Is it coincedence where it occurs or triggered by anything (cameras, scanner etc.) at toll plazza? Note: no toll on the way in). Anyideas or suggestions welcome. This is my first time at this site!
