MDTA - Civil Penalty Waiver - Oct 16 - Nov 15
 
Dear Friends,  

     I wanted to alert you to a one month waiver of civil penalties related to toll debts which is being offered by the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA).   Please feel free to share with anyone who could take advantage of this opportunity. 

"Before we begin referring toll violators to the MVA for flagging and suspending vehicle registrations, we wanted to give them one last chance to pay off their toll debt with the added incentive of waiving civil penalties," said MDTA Executive Director Milt Chaffee. "This unique waiver program will happen only once." 
 
Pertinent details can be found below and also in the press release here:
 
The MDTA is offering a one month waiver program for toll violators to pay off their toll debt without paying civil penalties.  Between Oct. 16 and Nov. 16, 2015, the MDTA will waive civil penalties ($50 per transaction) and cease further enforcement activities for any pending Video Toll that a customer pays during this period. 

I have attached the press release, FAQs for the Civil Penalty Waiver (Civil Penalty Waiver Period FAQs), and a sample letter that will be mailed out starting tomorrow to MD residents who have unpaid Video Tolls and/or Civil Penalties.
 
Customers with unpaid Video Tolls can pay by the following methods:

       - Visit ezpassmd.com (click PAY VIDEO TOLLS) 
 
       - Mail check/money order payable to E-ZPass Maryland to P.O. Box 17600, Baltimore, MD 21297 (include license plate number with payment).

        -
Call the Maryland Video Toll Payment Line at 1-866-320-9995 during regular business hours (7 a.m. - 6 p.m., Monday - Friday).

        -
Visit an E-ZPass Maryland Stop-In Center (locations/hours at ezpassmd.com). 

Regards
