MO Trucking owner Erez Herschkowitz says the company is trying to figure out how to offset the $24 to $36 tolls each truck will face when congestion price goes into effect.

The only "no" vote came from Nassau County board member David Mack. He’s not the only person in Nassau not on board with the plan.The tolls affect vehicles driving south of 60th Street in Manhattan. It will cost $15 for passenger vehicles, $24 to $36 for trucks, and $7.50 for motorcycles.

"It's really not as simple as just going to your customer and raising prices,” he said. “We’re reaching out to customers – doesn’t look like we have any options to raise our rates. It looks like it’s just going to be coming out of our pockets.” Not everyone is subjected to the tolls. Authorized emergency vehicles, city school buses, and commuter buses - like the Hampton Jitney - will receive exemptions. Firefighters and teachers are not exempt.
