On this particular morning, she stopped at the Autos Only Toll to quickly grab a ticket from the machine - or so she thought.
B got stuck behind another driver who did not understand there was a machine with a ticket sticking out from it for you to grab and be on your way - believe it or not the vehicle actually had Mass license plates! (Did we have a first-timer here??)
This driver stopped for a good 3 minutes looking at the workers fixing the Fastlane tolls, completely unaware of what to do.
B, not thinking, does not encourage this driver to figure it quickly by honking her horn, but rather sits there, wondering how exactly this is going to play out. Is this driver ever going to realize there is a ticket right next to her face?
The driver looks all around and does not see the ticket! Finally one of the workers walks in front of her car but instead of pulling the ticket out the machine and handing it to her he gets another toll attendant's attention.
The toll attendant had to leave his post collecting money for those going east. He looked at her, looked at the machine, looked at her, shook his head, pulled the ticket from the machine, handed it to the driver and left!
B could not stop laughing but then realized she spent a long time watching this and suddenly wished she had those minutes back in her life.
1. Don't worry she doesn't take it into Boston but rather a little further out to the burbs.
