Crossing New York Bridges Can Cost More Than The Toll

The state of New York announced it is launching checkpoints at various entry points into the state. New York states 'these checkpoints are an educational tool designed to ensure travelers understand and comply with New York State’s travel restrictions.'

New York State law now requires anyone entering the State who has spent more than 24-hours in any state on New York’s Restricted State List to 1.) Register by completing the New York State Traveler Health Form; 2.) Quarantine upon arrival for 14-days from the last day of travel within a state on the restricted list; 3.) Essential workers coming to work in New York from a restricted state must follow the guidance of the State Department of Health.

And, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has said 'those who violate quarantine restrictions could face fines of up to $2,000,' reported The Hill.
