COOL, so it turns out that the NSW Government may have incorrectly and unfairly charged Sydney Harbour Bridge motorists almost $1.5 million in tolls, thanks to allegedly faulty equipment.
In some top 
quality investigative work, the Daily Telly found that, since 2013, motorists have been slugged with a 55% ‘video processing fee’ whenever the Harbour Bridge reader fails to read their E-tag.
Harsh, but fair, if you don’t have an E-tag; BUT – if the equipment is faulty, and you’re being charged even though you played by the rules and got a bleeding E-tag, then that’s some fresh bridge t(r)oll bullshit right there.
Minister for Roads, Maritime and Freight Duncan Gay says he doesn’t think there’s a problem with the equipment, but they’re looking into it, anyway:
[DRAMATIC REENACTMENT]
“I think it’s fair that we make sure that this equipment is operating properly.”
The Telly also revealed that lanes nine, 14, and 17 are most likely to charge you extra $$$. AVOID.
