Reporter state representative hal english understands the frustration. Especially when money is so tight. The turnpike does have to rely on the legislature to i guess give it some teeth. Reporter until that happens it leaves responsible, honest drivers holding the bag. Now in may the turnpike gave up on every collecting 3. 7 million. They just wrote it off and were told that they cant even report the violators to credit bureaus. Meanwhile the problem in the losses will multiply as the turnpike moves towards electronic tolling.
