## Resource

Pennsylvania Turnpike and State Police launched a high-impact toll enforcement blitz, targeting drivers with suspended registrations due to unpaid tolls — a problem costing over $200 million. One driver racked up a shocking $100K debt, highlighting a pattern of deliberate non-payment. In just one day, officers made 23 stops with a 90% compliance rate, and the month totaled over $2.3 million collected. While this push was time-limited, enforcement is active year-round — officials urge drivers to proactively address payment issues before facing serious consequences.
