I Ma Tart

I'm such a tart. On the way to pick up my beardies last night (that's right, I adopted more beardies...), I passed by the toll bridge. In the midst of confusion, I realized too late that I was in a lane called e-toll. There were no cars behind me so I wanted to reverse but the lane kindly said "no stopping" so being as intellectual as I was, I didn't, and ran straight through it. Arghhh. I'd like to blame it on the insanely long drive (mind you this was nearing towards midnight when I went on this road trip), and so I guess I will. I was quite worried all the way there and back until I reached the same e-toll gate (god bless), especially since I saw a sign that said something along the lines of "toll invasion is some kind of offense and may be more than $100 or so". I went through to the one where actual humans collected the toll fee and told her with big wet eyes what I did earlier. She was loverly, passed me a card and told me to call QLD Motorways. So this morning I did. I dialed the number and waited for the robot to finish reciting her lines. There was an actual option that said something like, "if you accidentally went through e-toll, press 3", and then the lady answered. If you wanna know what happens when you commit toll invasion, go through one yourself. :( :D
