It looks like it will cost you more to drive the New York State Thruway next year. There may be a slight increase for New York EZ-Pass holders but a significant increase for those who pay by mail.
I have been an E-Z Pass holder for many years. We travel a lot on the Thruway, mainly from here to Buffalo and back. If I were to add it up, we have saved a ton being E-Z Pass holders. Well if you have been thinking of becoming one, there is a great incentive from the state.
Winter weather is so unpredictable. A blizzard swept across a stretch of the New York state Thruway causing a seventy-five car pile-up. Many motorists are stranded while emergency crews try and help.
