NJ E-ZPass charged me with a toll violation even though cash booth was unmanned. Newark New Jersey
Traveling south on Rt 1 in NJ, crossing the Trenton-Morris Bridge in Trenton (at about 5:30 am), the toll cash booth was unmanned, with a sign stating to continue without stopping. I thus continued, thinking this toll was now a "pay by mail" toll like many other toll plazas and bridges have been converted to.
I received a bill in the mail with not only the $3.00 toll, but also a $30.00 administration fee. I paid the $3.00 fee, with an explanation as to the booth being unmanned.
My explanation was ignored (they did cash my $3.00 check) and the $30.00 administration fee has now been sent to collections.
