I have relatives in upstate NY. I’ve never driven the Thruway personally. But they tell me that there is a lot of “deferred maintenance” shall we say, on the Thruway, which is part of the justification for continuing the tolls.

But then, if the road is in such bad repair, is the toll money really being used for repair and maintenance??

Ten years (or so) ago, a portion of the Thruway crossing a river, collapsed and people died. Thank you Mario Cuomo.
Just last week, Mario's "holier-than-thou" son Andy, snuck an amendment onto a bill that changes the name of the Tappan Zee Bridge, to the Mario Cuomo bridge.
The MFers have no gd shame at all.
