French motorhome traveler Michel received a demand for €119.36 for a toll road passage in Italy that he claims was paid in 2020. The Italian road company used international data exchange to locate him in France and send the notice. Michel insists it is an administrative error, as he remembers technical issues during payment at the Genoa West station. This case highlights that road companies can recover old debts across borders and advises travelers to keep payment receipts.
