Omg! I was born and raised in Va beach and still live here. I forgot all about that toll bridge. This is why I love watching these old videos. It’s 1979 I wasn’t even born yet. I was born 1983. I think the toll was removed in 1995?

Stand in that spot today and you're taking your life into your hands! Wish I had a dime for every time I tossed a dime into the toll baskets!
