S 6024 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Provides for E-ZPass availability and waiving deposit fees for a certain period after a rate increase

This bill requires toll authorities to waive the deposit fee for new E-ZPass transponders for 60 days after increasing toll rates for cash or non-E-ZPass users. It also mandates that all retail locations selling E-ZPass must accept cash payments for purchasing or reloading transponders. The law directly affects drivers who pay cash tolls or use non-E-ZPass, and retailers that sell E-ZPass services. Key provisions include the 60-day deposit waiver period and the cash payment requirement at retail locations.
