- hussein sJanuary 3, 2015Longest bridge in the state of New York. The Tappan Zee is named for an American Indian tribe from the area called "Tappan"; & zee being the Dutchword for "sea". Toll $5.00 (cash) or $4.75 (E-ZPass)
- The bridge that connects Rockland & Westchester. Can get congested especially during rush hour everyday including the weekends.
- Jackie JakSeptember 16, 2012Love the drive on this bridge... The view isn't bad either, Southbound side is prettier, but you can see it better from the Northbound side.
- Preferred way south from ri and ct. Lowered or modified vehicles the right lane is in the best shape
- The new bridge looks beautiful and we are looking forward to traveling once it is ready.
- Derrick RuprechtJuly 29, 2017I can think of 10 or more bridges that are much more pleasant to drive over Jackie J.
- If you have to cross going towards the city make sure you have an EZ Pass! Going away from the city is freeeeee!
- Nice view of NYC from the east side of the bridge on a clear day!
- AstoriawinedivaMarch 31, 2012It freaks me out to see the "Life is Worth Living" and "When it seems like there is no hope, there is help" signs on the bridge due to all the suicides on this bridge.
- Avoid the Northbound side during rush hour on Fridays, especially in the summertime!
- James MurrayOctober 26, 2015Needs more policing - for speeders and the semi's need to be in the right hand lane - middle lane is always inviting trouble
- People..use your turn signals. It's not very hard to let someone know when you're going to switch lanes. It's common courtesy..if you can't move your arm less than 1ft to flick a switch...you're lazy.
- Eric BennettApril 15, 2013This is a cheaper way to get around NYC as opposed to going across the CBE (cross bronx expressway) and g w bridge
- If you're slow... for the love of god move over to the right side of the road please.
- B.J. EllisOctober 12, 2011Drive over the bridge and tell everyone you will be "Tappin Zee Bridge tonight after a few beers.". You will make friends.
- Vinny Vodka-TonicSeptember 4, 2013Hit this bad boy before 3:30 and it's smooth sailing. Better than the GWB, but I still dread this thing.
- Great Bridge look at all the sailboats but wait no! Pay attention to where your driving!
- Buy a helicopter or donate money to science to discover the teleporting gene.
- Janet SalaAugust 15, 2011Beautiful view: consider what it was like when Henry Hudson first viewed it before Europeans moved in!
- David EzellNovember 14, 2010I was on this bridge with my ex, driving to the City, when 9/11 unfolded before my eyes. I'll never forget what I saw that very clear and very blue day.
- Chris CredendinoNovember 28, 2011This is the S-shape bridge you see in the opening credits of Law & Order.
- Named for a local Indian tribe (the Tappan) and the Dutch word for "sea" (zee).
- James SchmelingMarch 28, 2011You can see NYC from the bridge while swerving and checking in on FourSquare? Cool!
- Bernadette BaumJuly 4, 2013Longest bridge in New York State at 16,000 feet. A $4 billion replacement is planned :)
- There is too much traffic on this Godforsaken bridge, but it beats the hell outta using the GWB as an alternative.
- Make your friend to your right earn shotgun: have them check in for you!
- Jack PurdyOctober 4, 2013Don't jump. You'll die of old age waiting in traffic on the bridge, and that's slightly less awful than falling to your death.
- Worse bridge in new York state. They need to get with the new project already. Also no walkway of any kind.
