Thousands of drivers along the Dulles Toll Road and the Powhite Parkway Extension will either be reimbursed for $25 tickets or won’t have to pay the fines after state officials determined the citations had been issued in error.

“We started getting calls from customers that they were receiving violation notices after they had thrown their change in the toll,” Virginia Department of Transportation spokeswoman Joan Morris said. “Looking at the data, there was definitely a glitch.”
