A few years back I drove to Pittsburgh. I had every intention of stopping at an ATM for cash before I left. However, I did not. You would think that pulling onto the PA Turnpike and pulling out a toll slip would jog my memory that I needed cash. You would think that I would pull into one of those rest areas and find an ATM. Well, that's what would have happened if I for one second paused to think. Instead I arrive at the toll booth in Pittsburgh. No, cash. Replay of your story except it's get better. Being the ultimate ditz, I forgot my driver license at home. You apparently have to show that if you are a douche at a toll booth with out cash. A second guy came to the booth. They mentioned something about calling the State Police. Told me to pull off to the side. Then the one guy went to get his manager. Eventually they took a check. Didn't call the cops. I didn't get arrested and I completely forgot about it until reading your post. Mortifying but I'll never see any of those people again.

I'll save you the black ones. As for embarassing road incidents, once I think I missed throwing two quarters in the toll basket - three times in a row - and had to slide out of my car and retrieve them - three times. There was a long list of people behind me that sent hot roasted hate waves my way.

Duh - clearly I meant long LINE of people. If you have more seeds, wait another week and try again. March sucks.

Those automatic toll things are great.. except if you're going in the carpool lane during rush hour, which is supposed to be free, and your toll thing gets dinged. Rrrrr. This is why I no longer have one.
