Ohio Turnpike on Mission to Collect Unpaid Tolls from Rogue Trucking Companies.

The Ohio Turnpike and Infrastructure Commission is advancing its mission to collect unpaid tolls from rogue commercial trucking companies.

The Commission is publicly identifying 315 commercial trucking companies in multiple states that owe $5,000 each or more in unpaid Ohio Turnpike tolls.

A total of 315 trucking companies from 26 states identified on the Commission’s public list were sent to collections to recover unpaid tolls. These companies alone owe the Commission nearly $5.2 million in unpaid tolls since April 2024. Of the 315 companies, 42 have commercial vehicles registered in Ohio.

According to the Commission, tolls that remain unpaid for 90 days from the date of the first invoice are sent to collections and/or vehicle registrations are held until payment is made. Unpaid toll balances on the public list range from $5,000 to nearly $156,000. The largest unpaid balance is owed by NYC Trucking, Inc., a company with commercial trucks registered in Pennsylvania.

The Commission uses a range of methods to collect unpaid tolls, including:

• Capturing license plate images;
• Mailing invoices;
• Sending unpaid tolls to collections;
• Preventing license plate renewals through vehicle registration holds; and
• Taking legal action when necessary.
