That's a very low number to assume!
The last time I checked, base compensation for toll takers in New York was well over $120K/year.
In unionized NJ, I am sure compensation is about the same.
- brianzelip 7y agoWhere are you getting those numbers from? Here is data that suggest NY toll collectors make less than $20/hour, https://www.indeed.com/salaries/Toll-Collector-Salaries,-New-York-State https://www.indeed.com/salaries/Toll-Collector-Salaries,-New...

On top of $60K year in base pay, you have to consider maybe $50K a year in pension benefits, then maybe $20K a year for health insurance. And those numbers were from 8 years ago.

- jonhendry18 7y agoThose are bridge/tunnel tolls, which are a lot higher than Garden State Parkway tolls, which might mean higher pay. (No, it isn't very logical, but I can certainly see toll collectors at a $1 toll booth making less than toll collectors at a $15 toll booth if only because the higher price toll can more easily support a higher wage.)
