Ready-to-quote statements

“Most tourists don't get fined because they ignore the rules — they get fined because a ZTL gate looks like an ordinary street. There's no barrier, just a camera overhead. And every single gate you cross is a separate fine.”
— Roberto Galati, founder, Essential City Info
“A rental car fine arrives two to six months later, charged to the card used for the booking, plus €30–50 of administrative fee. By then most visitors can't even remember which street it happened on.”
— Roberto Galati, founder, Essential City Info
