Ghost license plates cost NYC $200M a year — fueled by ‘James Bond-level’ gadgets

Scofflaw drivers with “ghost” license plates are costing New York City a whopping $200 million a year — fueled by a burgeoning online cottage industry peddling “James Bond-level” gadgets, a new analysis reveals.

The rogue vehicles whiz through tolls and past NYPD speed and red-light cameras 100,000 times a month — using their unreadable plates to dodge fines and other penalties, said Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine, whose office conducted the study.

“You better believe it influences behavior when people know their plate is unreadable,” Levine told The Post.
