I recall the time Dallas Jensen (google 'dallas jensen +me and my
shadow') or http://www.bdub.net/GMCLinks.html went to battle with the
Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel Authority, or the like, and won. But as
Frank states above, the toll takers aren't motivated to check the
instructions. Dallas made large sized copies of a GMC and had them posted
at each toll booth. I suspect those have become dog-eared, lost, etc.
