Exposing the Hidden Costs and Confusing System Behind NYC Tolls
In a revealing investigation, NY-based journalist Mahsa Saeidi digs into the often opaque and overwhelming toll violation system managed by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA). Many New Yorkers are falling into financial crises due to penalties and fees linked to missed or unpaid tolls, which can snowball into insurmountable debt with little warning or understanding of the rules. This series, "Driven Into Debt Across New York," aims to shed light on who is bearing the burden and why the system seems so difficult to navigate.
