If you drive your car with Nevada plates through the Manhattan “Congestion Relief Zone” without an EZ-Pass, here’s what would typically happen:
Cameras mounted on overhead gantries or other structures will capture an image of your car’s license plate as you enter the congestion zone.
The system will cross-reference the captured license plate with vehicle registration databases to identify the registered owner. A bill for the congestion toll will be mailed to the address associated with your Nevada license plate registration.
Once you receive the bill, you’ll have the option to pay online, by phone, or by mail, depending on the instructions provided. The toll amount will likely include an administrative fee since you do not have an EZ-Pass.
If you fail to pay the bill by the specified deadline, penalties or fines could be added to the toll amount. Continued non-payment may result in further enforcement actions, such as collections or reporting to credit agencies (depending on the enforcement agreements between New York and Nevada).
New York State may have agreements with Nevada and other states to ensure compliance for out-of-state vehicles. For instance:
