Port Authority taking its toll

While I was on the road yesterday I saw the sign about the rate increase. Interesting how I didn't know about it until less than a week before it happens. For those without ezpass the Holland toll wil be $12 in a car.

I also think it is interesting how bills keep increasing while people's income does not.
