NEW YORK -- A small, single-engine plane made an emergency landing on the Northbound side of the Garden State Parkway on Friday, according to New Jersey state police.

The small Cesna 152 was sightseeing when it lost power and had to fly under an overhead parkway sign to make a safe landing. Traffic is backed up on the northbound side of the Garden State Parkway.

The plane landed in Tinton Falls, N.J., near mile marker 102.5 on the parkway. [Full Article (http://www.wnbc.com/news/17401844/detail.html?dl=mainclick)]

Does he have EZPass ?

I think he will have to pay max price to exit from Garden State Pkwy. He didn't get ticket when he entered it so they will pay for lost ticket :)

That's for the Turnpike, not the Parkway. The Parkway has booths every so often where they collect a small amount (something like a quarter/$.50) down its length. No ticket required.
