The toll on the Tappan Zee (and God Bless you for calling it that instead of the Mario Cuomo or New New York bridge) is one way, east bound. You won't be getting any bills

And I'm insanely jealous you found a Cosmos in our neck of the woods. Drive safely

Quoted from jrpinball:

Yes, and it's EZPass or "toll by mail" only in the eastbound direction. I went that way twice since this took effect, and both times I received a late notice, doubling the toll without ever receiving an initial bill. I guess considering that they use this type of extortion to collect a double toll, naming it after our esteemed ex-governor would be appropriate after all.

So, it's not just me. Thieves.

They sub out the contract to a company that I'm sure gets paid a % of what they collect. As corrupt as the red light cameras.

And, do you know, if you're from out of state, they do not apply the EZ Pass discount, but charge full cost.

Thieves.

Quoted from jrpinball:

The last thing they're concerned about is traffic flow, followed by safety. The biggest problem on the roads is drivers who don't keep right, and that's never enforced. I'm all for obeying traffic laws (except for highway speed limits). It's all about money. Photo enforcement is bogus, because the actual violator can't be identified; only a vehicle.

Pretending these cameras are about enforcement and not revenue is naive. There used to be a camera on the Henry Hudson in NYC that would nab 10-15 cars per cycle. Seriously-you could enter in a green, never stop, and still get a ticket. I think they finally had to take it down cuz someone proved it was a scam
