New turnpike law starts today in Pennsylvania

Starting Monday, January 2, 2023, drivers with $250 in unpaid tolls will have their Pennsylvania registration suspended.

HARRISBURG, Pa. — Turnpike officials want to crack down on drivers who don't pay tolls.

Starting Monday, January 2, 2023, drivers with $250 in unpaid tolls will have their Pennsylvania registration suspended.

The new law lowered that number from $500 in unpaid tolls.

It is all to try and make some money back after the turnpike went cashless.

Officials say there are around $155 million in unpaid tolls.

Governor Wolf signed it into law in November of 2022.
