My point was that he reported it to the toll booth operator, that's all that could have been done or resolved there.

fullstop wrote: » The M8 express lanes are a joke. I've had this happen several times where the barrier didn't raise. I complained to the booth operators on more than one occasion and they said they're aware there is a problem...yet nothing is done about it. Also, the arrow was green and changed to red x just when he was about to pass under. These traffic lights and arrows seem to be a lucky dip on that toll plaza.
