Car rental companies will basically only charge administrative fees. The fines themselves must be paid by the renter. If you enter Italy again in the future, you may be taken to a small room at the airport and forced to pay. Someone has had this experience in the Netherlands. You will not be allowed to enter if you do not pay.

I asked someone in Italy specifically about this problem because I also lost my ticket. In essence, the traffic police will send the ticket to your rental company a few months later, and the rental company will provide your information to the traffic police (for a fee, deducted from the credit card you used for collateral). Then the traffic police will send you an email, and you can pay the fine through the internet or post office after receiving the email. If you have unbound your credit card, Europe attaches great importance to personal credit system, you will be included in the credit blacklist, and your visa, car rental, plane tickets and other series of things will be affected.

The pre-authorization amount from the car rental company will be deducted.

No problem. Italians don't pay either.

May I ask you a question? We took the expressway from Naples to Rome, which should be A1. We got on from the northern entrance of Naples, and the lane we took did not have a Telepass sign, nor did it have a horizontal bar blocking it. But when we pressed the button to take the card, no card came out. There was a long line of cars behind us, so we had to get on the expressway and go to Rome. As a result, we got a ticket, which should be a fine. The normal expressway fee from Naples to Rome should have been paid at the exit manned by staff. We still have to pay more than 60 euros at another place ourselves, because we don't think we took the wrong lane. So I wrote an email to Telepass's website to appeal, but more than 10 days have passed and we still haven't received a response. The ticket says we must pay within 15 days, otherwise there will be a fine. May I ask if you have encountered a similar situation and what should we do next? Thank you ? Italy Q&A

For buses that don't stop or announce the stations, how do you ensure you don't get off at the wrong stop? It seems that in Italy, buses don't announce the stations and only stop when someone needs to get on or off, and you have to press a red button to signal that you want to get off... The method of counting the stations and listening for announcements doesn't work, so do you rely on the driver to call out the stops? But what if you don't speak Italian and the bus is crowded? Looking out for landmarks? You need to have landmarks to look at, and it's hard to see them when it's dark or when the bus is crowded... So the only thing I can think of is to look at the GPS location on the map... Do you have any clever tricks for this ? Italy Q&A
