As a practical matter, those drivers are either getting a good fare back over a bridge or on their way home and not incurring a toll. Since I already agree to the total fare, it is what it is, and I'm not begrudging a driver trying to scrape by and make a living, but I've had a number of drivers over the years on their way home which is why they accepted a ride in my direction, or it is surge city back to the City for pay-tay time.
