tolls for the Whitestone Bridge, Throgs Neck Bridge, Tri-Borough Bridge, George Washington Bridge, NJ Turnpike, Garden State Turnpike, Holland Tunnel, all the other tunnels and expressways...for the whole time I lived there...some 30 years...and NYers and Jersey-ites are still paying them.

And they go up in price every few years.

States never give up those revenue sources, I don't care what was promised.

I got to be an expert in finding my way to the free bridges...Brooklyn, Williamsburg, Manhattan...free but always crowded.
