(i) The owner of any vehicle which violates toll collection regula- tions without paying the charge prescribed by the Authority shall be liable to the Authority for an administrative fee, known as the toll violation fee:
(a) for any cashless tolling facility, in the amount of $100.00 for each such toll violation unless a fee of less than $100.00 is set by the Authority in its sole discretion;
(b) for all other facilities, in the amount of $50.00 for each such toll violation unless a fee of less than $50.00 is set by the Authority in its sole discretion,

The toll violation fee shall be in addition to the applicable toll charge and any fines and penalties otherwise prescribed by law or by agreement.

(2) Entering or leaving the controlled system except through the reg- ular toll booth lanes (except in emergency cases and then only under the control and supervision of the State Police or toll collectors), is prohibited.
(3) Passage through a toll booth lane on the controlled system or at a bridge or barrier station without making a full stop is prohibited except in a dedicated E-ZPass lane.
(b) Loss of toll ticket. The driver of a vehicle required to have a toll ticket on the controlled system extending from, and including, the toll bar- rier at Woodbury, to and including the toll barrier at Williamsville, includ- ing the Berkshire section, and extending from, and including, the toll bar- rier at Lackawanna, to and including the toll barrier at Ripley, who, for any reason, does not have a toll ticket upon reaching an exit toll station, shall be charged the toll for the appropriate vehicle classification from the most distant toll station on such portion of the controlled system; provided, however, that if the operator presents satisfactory proof of the station of entry, the toll collector, with the approval of the toll plaza manager, may accept the toll from such station.
(c) Exit of vehicle at point of entry. The driver of a vehicle on the con- trolled system extending from and including, the toll barrier at Woodbury, to and including the toll barrier at Williamsville, including the Berkshire section and extending from, and including, the toll barrier at Lackawanna, to and including the toll barrier at Ripley, who presents a toll ticket for payment to a collector at the same toll station at which such toll ticket was issued shall be charged the toll for the appropriate vehicle classification from the most distant toll station of the controlled system. Disabled vehicles permissibly in tow (which shall include vehicles being pushed) by an emergency service vehicle on the controlled system (see Part 102 of this Chapter) and emergency service vehicles providing such towing, shall not be charged a toll if it is necessary under this Chapter for the particular vehicle to leave the Thruway at the same toll station at which it entered.
