I didn't pay at a toll booth...?

Question

Alright, so please, before you begin to think I’m an idiot please hear me out.

I'm seventeen years old, and today I traveled about an hour away to go to a very nice mall. I was driving along with a friend. On the way back from the mall, we ran into road construction, so I punched into my GPS to find me a detour. All I had to do was take the next exit. Which I did.

Anyhow right at the end of the exit was the turn pike, but for where I was going, the turnpike toll booth was like right at the very end of the exit. I thought it was going to be a tool booth where you'd grab a ticket and go....but it wasn't. There was only one toll booth, (For Ez-pass, and cash) and i pulled up to it and instead of having some lady ask for money it was a coin slot... The screen said I owed 75 cents. I dug through my purse as fast as I could, I wasn't expecting to get right off the exit and find the booth! But I could only find 2 quarters, and a whole line of traffic was blowing their horns behind me.

Answer 1

thats harsh er i dont think any dose that or knows the awncer they will probply send a letter

Answer 2

You will receive a ticket for failure to pay the toll.

Answer 3

Just tell your parents the truth.  The license plate number will most likely be turned in to the state police.  You or your parents will receive a fine or a bill in the mail.

Answer 4

Own up to the folks, and agree to pay the ticket out of your own pocket.  If it's their car, it will affect their registration and/or license.  Evading toll is a costly expense to learn.  How come your friend didn't have a quarter?

Answer 5

If you didn't get a ticket, you probably were not on a toll road, but crossing a toll bridge or something. You better talk to your parents. They can get it cleaned up for you. Even though it was only a quarter, you could get fined over $100 and lose your license if you do nothing and try to hide it.

Answer 6
