Cops busted a New Jersey truck driver for blowing through an E-ZPass toll on the George Washington Bridge — and discovered he owed more than $60,000 in unpaid fees, officials said Wednesday.
Port Authority police pulled over Rigoberto Cardenas after he allegedly drove his 2015 Mack dump truck through the toll lane on the bridge’s upper level without paying around 9 a.m. Monday.
Cops quickly determined his E-ZPass account had been revoked with over 532 toll violations and $62,262 in outstanding tolls.
Cardenas, 39, of Morristown, was charged with theft of service, toll evasion and failure to observe toll signs.
When the owner of Torito Trucking Corp. showed up at the George Washington Bridge to claim the truck, one of two in the company’s fleet, she was also arrested.
Fadia Garcia, 46, of Rockaway, was charged with theft of service.
