Payment method, Australia Road trip 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

I rented from Sixt for 11 days. When picking up the car, I paid 480.9 dollars, including a 300 pound deposit and insurance fees. When returning the car on the 4th, I checked it over and said it was okay, without signing a receipt. Yesterday, it showed that the 480.9 dollar payment was cancelled, and an additional 7.95 pound charge was incurred. I don't know what it's for ? United Kingdom Q&A

Please help: I'm returning the car now, and the store only has one staff member, who says it's time off. As long as I park the car well and put the car key in the designated point, it's okay, right? There's no review or payment either. There was a previous talk of 1400 pounds, and I don't know if it will be deducted from it? I feel uneasy in my heart ? United Kingdom Q&A

Help! Just now on the highway in Italy from the Leaning Tower of Pisa to Cinque Terre, when I gave my card, no one collected the money when I exited the highway. I pressed the button for a staff member, and she said something (I couldn't hear clearly) and then opened the gate for me to pass through. Do I need to make up for the payment ? Italy Q&A

About hotel payment in Euro and Lira, I have been struggling for a long time. The booking order is calculated in Euro, and then I emailed the hotel and they said they accept both Euro and Lira. I don't know which currency is more cost-effective for us. Later, I remembered that I can use my credit card, which is a multi-currency credit card. Then I stopped worrying ? Turkey Q&A

Friends, today I took the expressway from Catania to Taormina. I took the ticket at the entrance of Catania, but when I came out of the toll gate of Taormina, I took the wrong way and came out without paying. What should I do? Can I still go to the exit of Taormina to make up for it? Should I pay at the expressway exit of Messina tomorrow? Is the payment made the next day valid ? Italy Q&A

Self-service payment is not difficult. It's best to watch others operate when they are in front of you. However, it seems that no one will come to deal with it or post a note even if it is overdue. Today we arrived in Florence. We drove to Michelangelo Square to watch the sunset, which was extremely beautiful. There is a large parking lot on Michelangelo Square. The first hour is 1 euro and the second hour and after is 2 euros ? Italy Q&A

Hello. I have looked at the file you sent, which is mainly aimed at several highways in California. I wonder if there is a solution for post-payment of tolls specifically for the city of Boston? Without rental car equipment, I went in and out of the city of Boston once from the airport and saw two electronic toll collection devices. I searched on the Internet and it seems that rented cars cannot be post-paid, I wonder if this is true. I beg the expert to guide me ? United States Q&A

By the way, I want to remind everyone that when we went to Stratford, we visited Shakespeare's birthplace and parked the car in a roadside parking lot, where we paid the fee at the automatic payment machine. When we returned, we found a parking ticket on the car. It turns out that some of the parking spaces in this parking lot belong to private individuals or businesses, and permission is required to park there. The £100 fine was issued by the parking company, which is really frustrating. I'm not sure if this kind of situation is mandatory to pay ? United Kingdom Q&A

Yesterday went to a scenic spot to buy tickets, 31 tickets, gave me 100 and asked me to give him 50, so I listened, came back and looked at it, the 50 was missing a corner and couldn't be spent, because before I took out the money, this was my only 100, so this 50 missing a corner must have been given to me on purpose, for those of us who are used to electronic payment at home, we still need to check if the money is missing a corner ?

Encountered a frustrating situation again, in the parking lot of San Gimignano, took the card to park, when I came out and inserted the card for payment, but it didn't show anything, couldn't calculate the fee, I was so anxious and frustrated, couldn't figure it out after half a day of trying, had to reverse the car back to the parking space, and then went to ask a foreigner for help. Later, I realized that I had inserted the card in the wrong direction, and I didn't know if it was upside down or front and back reversed ? Italy Q&A

How to refuel when driving in France? In France, gas stations are widely available and easy to find, especially in urban areas. Most gas stations are open 24 hours a day, although some may have limited hours on weekends or holidays. To refuel your car, simply pull up to a pump and insert your fuel card or pay with cash. Gasoline in France is sold in liters, with unleaded gasoline (essence) being the most common type. It's important to note that French gas stations do not typically provide self-service fueling, so you will need to ask an attendant to pump your gas for you. Additionally, many gas stations require payment before pumping the fuel, so be sure to have cash or a credit card ready. If you're unsure about where to find a gas station, you can use a GPS or map app on your phone to locate one nearby. Additionally, many French highways have gas stations located along the side of the road, so keep an eye out for these as you drive ? France Q&A

We arrived in Paris on the 13th and stayed for 6 days, then drove to Fontainebleau, Lyon, Nice, Monaco, Genoa, Florence, and arrived in Rome yesterday. We were on edge the whole way... First of all, the temperature here is not hot. The wind is quite cold. We have to wear down jackets and woolen hats to keep warm. It is not recommended to drive in the city of Paris. It is difficult to find parking spaces on the road surface. The entrances and exits of underground parking lots are too narrow and difficult to find. Navigation mainly relies on the map built into the Apple phone, which is actually a collaboration with Tom Tom and is very accurate. The maps we downloaded at home are not very reliable, including Google Maps. We were misled several times, even guided to a snow-covered mountain road at night. Maybe it's because we didn't enter the address accurately. Remember to enter the postal code of the region. Google Play needs to be installed to have offline maps, so you must have wireless WiFi. The high-speed rail here is very fast. France is 130 and Italy is 110. I think this is the lowest speed. There will always be cars following me to drive. After all, the car company gave me a top-of-the-line Mercedes-Benz E200 station wagon, black German license plate, which is too eye-catching. This caused me to park in the underground garage and dare not park on the road, for fear that my car windows would be broken and my bag would be stolen. All overtaking must be done from the left side, and then the left lane must be given up. It is forbidden to occupy the left lane for a long time. Right-hand overtaking is strictly prohibited, which is very dangerous! Highways need to prepare some 50, 20, 10, 5, 2, 1, and 0.5 euro banknotes and coins in advance. Do not enter the electronic payment channel by mistake. France and Italy have many dark tunnels that are relatively narrow. Overtaking and turning do not slow down. It feels like you're driving a race car, so small cars are popular here. Their control performance is good. Remember not to rent big cars! My Mercedes-Benz is too long, and the city control is really a bit difficult. Those streets, tunnels, and parking lot passages are really narrow! Bring fewer luggage when you go out ? France Q&A
