The amount of the surcharge depends on the type of vehicle that provides the transportation in or through the congestion zone, as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>$2.75 per trip provided by a for-hire vehicle that is not a taxi or a pool vehicle<\/li>\n<li>$2.50 per trip provided by a medallion (yellow) taxicab vehicle<\/li>\n<li>$0.75 per passenger for a trip provided by a pool vehicle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>State Law requires that the Congestion Surcharge must be passed on to the passenger and may not be deducted from the driver\u2019s pay.
