Toll Booth Exact Coin (posted by Phil;)

Remember THIS post? Well,
At another toll booth we knew the toll was $1 we had it so we went to the "Exact Coin" lane were, to our surprise there was nothing to take our dollar there was just a basket contraption for coins.

(google image)

We sat there for quite some time debating the situation, fold the dollar, give the three quarters we had, what to do, what to do. So we decided what can we do, and we drove on through.

Well a little over a month later what shows up in our mail but a notice from the Car Rental Agency saying we had been charged $11.
$1 for the toll and $10 for an administration fee. So the moral of the story, come prepared with plenty of coins and bills for paying tolls while on vacation.

Thanks for reading :)

TEN DOLLARS??? Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.

Doesn't that just frost you? I would have done the same thing though.
