Italy is bananas. A few years ago I accidentally drove a rental car through a ZTL in Rome. Some months later I received a letter in the mail at my home in the U.S. asking me to pay the fine (even though I had already paid it to Avis). What was astonishing was that the ticket said you were allowed to contest it, but if you contested it and the authorities decided against you, the fine would significantly increase.
