<prompt> Human: So, Im not sure if this is the right place for this question, but Im looking for some advice. My now ex girlfriend took my car to California a few months back since we both knew her car wouldnt make it and it seems she took it on a toll road. I only know this because I got a bill today for 206. 6 for the actual toll and 200 for late fees. I was just wondering if there was any way around this since I was not driving and wasnt even aware of any fee until I got the bill. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.  <response>: Thats terrible. I got a toll in the mail from Texas that was a few months old, couple of bucks originally, with late fees . . . 9. Call them up and explain that your first notice had late fees, that you were looking for the toll to be mailed to you, but expected it to be for face value. Be polite, but persistent; 200 is worth spending some time on the phone. Even if it takes you two hours, you are earning 100 an hour for that call. Apart from them extending mercy to you, theres not much to do but pay it.
