toll booth problems
I once drove up to the “correct change only” booth and all I had was a $20.00 bill. I imagined them putting me in jail and all sorts of terrible things. I offered to get out and walk to the next booth but the man just told me to mail in the money. There was no way I could have gotten out of that lane and no parking lot. He opened the gate and off I went. He had no record of me so I probably didn’t have to send the 35 cents it cost in those days but I did. The road was very busy and there were many cars behind me. I don’t know if he would have let me get out if that weren’t so.
