The MTA reported the confiscation of over 100 vehicles with ghost plates, along with more than 1,500 tickets issued to toll evaders across NYC in August.
MTA President Catherine Sheridan stressed the importance of not tolerating ghost plates, warning that such illegal behaviors can lead to vehicle confiscation.
Governor Kathy Hochul stated that ghost plates result in millions lost annually, affecting the state’s mass transit funding; efforts to combat this issue are now intensified.
Authorities argue that cracking down on ghost plates is crucial not just for toll evasion, but also for tackling broader issues of lawlessness and crime.
