I had entered an autostrada in Italy and came upon a toll booth. There
were instructions that I did not understand. I stopped, but could not for
the life of me figure out what I was 'sposed to do. There was no one in
the booth and no place to deposit money. There were no other cars
for me to observe. So, I got out of the car and looked around.

After a few minutes, I saw a big read button and pressed it. Out came
a slip of paper which I quickly understood to be like a garage parking
slip which one pays on leaving. I looked around again to see if anyone
was laughing. =R=
