Facing a Suspension of your NJ Registration Due to EZ-Pass Violations.

We Can Help: Eliminate or Reduce Penalties, Surcharges, and Even License Suspensions

If you've fallen behind on paying E-ZPass violations, the State of New Jersey has the authority not only to issue fines—but also to suspend your vehicle registration.

Your vehicle registration is your legal right given to you by the State to own and operate a car. Driving with a suspended registration carries penalties similar to driving without a drivers license.

In New Jersey, if you accumulate too many unpaid E-ZPass violations, the MVC (Motor Vehicle Commission) may suspend your vehicle registration without notice. Below is a simplified summary of the law outlining how your registration can be suspended:

Your registration may be suspended if:

  1. You owe $500 or more in unpaid tolls and fees within a 3-year period; or
  2. You have 6 or more toll violations, with at least one violation occurring after January 16, 2024

How We Can Help

If you owe money to E-ZPass—whether in New Jersey or another state—contact our office to schedule a consultation. You may qualify for a reduction in the fines and penalties you owe.

We may also be able to:

  1. Prevent suspension of your New Jersey registration by negotiating lower fees
  2. Restore your driving privileges if your license is already suspended
  3. Exploring alternative solutions, including bankruptcy options, negotiated settlements, and structured payment plans to help manage or eliminate large balances.

Why You Should Act Now

Your options become more limited as fines increase or if your license or registration becomes suspended. If you owe enough money to E-ZPass that suspension is possible—or has already happened—you owe it to yourself to understand every option available to protect your license and the income you worked hard to earn.

Taking action early can help you:

  • Avoid escalating fines and collection fees
  • Prevent or remove a registration suspension or even eventual license suspension
  • Reduce financial stress and protect your ability to work
  • Resolve your E-ZPass violations with clarity and confidence

Don’t wait until the penalties become unmanageable. Contact our office today to discuss the best path forward with our low consultation fee of $350.00 you could save thousands and delay, prevent or eliminate any license or registration suspension you may be facing.

Frequently Asked Questions About E-ZPass Fines in New Jersey

You may receive an EZ Pass violation notice if your transponder did not read, you did not register your plate online with your E-Z pass account, your account balance was too low, your payment method failed, or you used a toll lane without a valid E-ZPass. Each missed toll can quickly accumulate administrative fees and penalties, which is why resolving violations early is important.

Unpaid E-ZPass violations can lead to escalating fines, referral to collections, suspension of your vehicle registration, and in some cases driver’s license suspension. Ignoring the notices will not stop enforcement, and the amount owed can grow significantly over time.

Yes. New Jersey can suspend your vehicle registration if you owe enough in unpaid tolls or administrative fees. This means your vehicle cannot be legally driven until the suspension is lifted and the underlying E-ZPass debt is addressed.

In certain situations, yes. If your E-ZPass fines are high enough, the state may take steps that ultimately affect your driving privileges. We can help you understand whether you’re at risk and what options exist to prevent or reverse a suspension.

Unfortunately, NJ's amnesty program ended on November 28, 2025, but, you may still qualify for fine reductions or negotiated settlements lowering your fine and or penalties by as much as 25% or more under certain situations.

Immediately. The sooner you respond, the more options you have to reduce fees, prevent suspension, and avoid collections. Waiting often leads to higher costs and fewer solutions.
