TV cameras curb tollway cheaters at unmanned plazas
Cameras at six unmanned North South Tollway plazas cut toll evasion by about 35 percent after a year of operation. The system, installed in June 1993, has netted $250,000 annually and will pay for itself despite a $401,000 cost. From 1992 to 1994 losses fell from $735,772 to $475,880, with 170 tickets issued for four or more violations and 166 convictions bringing $12,450.
