DC to Albany Are I95 tolls worth it?

Toll booths are a thing of the past on the NY Thruway. Toll gantries now for cashless tolling. Thruway always was free from I88 to the Northway. Still doesn't stop some doofus drivers from trying to avoid the non existent toll by rooting around on roads they don't belong on.
What a surprise. Truck hits low bridge in upstate NY

toll at 90/87 in colonie, and Berkshire spur 90/90 schodack, but 90 “freebie” through Albany there’s no toll

not sure about 88 to the freebie, I don’t get out that way much

 

they get mighty pissed at the little chrome license plate brackets too because they mess with the plate readers
