Well, No Wonder


Driver Flipped License Plate to Save Toll
A Virginia truck driver used a device that could have come from a James Bond movie to try to get out of paying the $65 toll to cross the George Washington Bridge into New York City, police say.

Truck drivers have complained about steep toll increases that the Port Authority says it needs to finish building the new World Trade Center. By 2016, a five-axle truck will have to pay $105 to cross the bridge.
$65 to cross a bridge? Are they insane? And it's not enough, they're going to increase it to $105. You do know who is really paying for that, right. The consumer. Whoever is buying the product being delivered. All costs of doing business are passed on to the consumer.
