Yes I forgot about that as well. A friend of my daughter's had that happen to her down in Toledo, her cop didn't trust her so she had to pay right then & there. If it wasn't already a long trip I'd go straight through Indiana into Michigan, it would add quite a few miles. Our family is all in the lower SE corner of Michigan just above Toledo, Ohio.
