    read this story just a second ago.... wow...

    Police say Hanover trucker flipped license plate to save toll



    NEW YORK — Police say a Hanover County, Va., truck driver used a device out of a James Bond movie to get out of paying the toll on the New Jersey side of the George Washington Bridge.
    Police say Nelson Vaquiz of Beaverdam used a cable in his truck cab to flip up his front license plate while going through a gateless E-ZPass lane toward New York.
    They say his rear plate was bent up so it couldn't be read by cameras.
    The Port Authority needs a clear picture of license plates so it can bill people who go through the EZ-Pass lanes without transponders.
    Vaquiz was charged with theft of service, possession of burglar tools and eluding arrest. He was released on bail.
    Calls to his business phone were not answered...

    I've read about drivers of 4 wheelers using mannequins in the right seat so they could drive in the HOV lanes, but I've never heard of this one before. . .:biggrin_25513:

    I've always thought if only these criminals would out their minds to honest work, they'd be the most successful amongst us. They have some ingenious ideas, they're just the wrong ideas. Put those creative minds to something legitimate, and the sky's the limit.
