Port Authority NY NJ police has been unfairly targeting GW Bridge carpoolers issuing them heavy fines with baseless traffic statutes and double standard. Carpool at the GW Bridge underpass is the most strategic location to ease rush hour traffic, in addition to being both environmentally and economically sound especially in today's economy. Hefty tolls & fines levied on North Jersey residents to finance The World Trade Center is to begin with unfair and ultimately harrassment when drivers get penalty of $230.00. We stand united to protest this highway robbery from the PA!!

The stories coming in from commuters show that this issue affects far more people than I initially understood. I am currently compiling these experiences to present to the Port Authority so they can no longer ignore the human impact of these fines.

Seeing this momentum grow reminds me that so many commuters feel the same frustration regarding these unfair enforcement practices. This movement is becoming a clear indicator that the current approach to bridge traffic policy is no longer sustainable for those who depend on this route daily.

230 dollars is a joke. they are targeting common people just trying to get to work.
