In this video: A preliminary hearing is set for February 11 for the suspect busted for Fentanyl Trafficking on the PA Turnpike; meanwhile, Friday is the deadline set by a federal judge for new filings related to the case of the congestion tolling zone in Manhattan. Danny Pryor reports for Turnpikes.com.
Full description: A 34-year old New Jersey man will appear in court next week in Westmoreland County in Pennsylvania after being arrested last week on the Pennsylvania Turnpike for trafficking fentanyl. A federal judge in New York seemed skeptical of the U.S. Transportation Departments reasoning for wanting to rescind congestion tolling in Manhattan, and a Friday filing deadline now looms for both sides. Meanwhile, treacherous snows resulted in a freak accident on Oklahoma's Turner Turnpike, while drivers in Kansas have rated a segment of their state's turnpike as the 'most avoided' road during winter. That, plus road closures, in this week's travel news.
