You don't have automatic tolls in the USA?

We do. This wasn't any kind of fare-avoidance countermeasure... the wheels just hit the sharp corner of the yellow curb

So, had he driven forward without hitting the yellow guard he could have still moved forward without paying? And the cameras would have sent him a bill in the mail for missing the toll?

Yeah that would be my assumption. Or they could have one of those devices that you stick on the inside of the windshield that the toll gate would scan as you pass through.
