NEW YORK (77WABC) — Drivers who skip out on paying tolls along the New York State Thruway face suspension of their registrations.
The agency resumed its registration suspension program on July 25, and News 12 Westchester says so far notices have gone out to 100 registrants who’ve skipped out on $1.8 million in unpaid tolls and fees.
The Thruway paused the program back in 2018 amid confusion as the switch to cashless tolls was underway. Amid complaints, the agency initiated an amnesty program to help people get out of the red — resolving 280,000 violations.
You may be at risk of registration suspension if you have at least three outstanding toll violations in a five-year period.
