Scofflaw drivers in New York City evade tolls, costing the M.T.A millions in revenue each year. In 2022 alone, losses amounted to $46 million.
The M.T.A. expects to generate $500 million annually from the new congestion tolls, but ghost cars could hinder these projections significantly.
Drivers are finding creative ways to avoid toll cameras, including altering license plates and using various methods to obscure them, severely affecting toll compliance.
Public officials have intensified efforts against ghost cars, leading to the seizure of over 20,000 vehicles in the past three years.
