A man visiting Westralia from Sydney has been left in a perpetual state of shock while driving on our roads.
Clearly confused, the man keeps turning to his Perth colleagues and asking how the tolls work here.
he was growing anxious over the lack of information on how to pay to use our highways and freeways – incessantly rambling about extra administrative fees.
At one point he even stopped his car in the middle of the Kwinana freeway to scream at the Smart Freeway system that he was ready, willing and able to pay, just let him. Before breaking down waving his wallet in the air.
One of his colleagues was rather bemused by the situation. Adding,
“He thinks we’re paying a big practical joke on him and that he’s going to get some massive toll debt by the end of the drive. He was almost in tears before begging us to tell him which direction is free. We thought, wtf are you on mate? You’re in Perth now, you’re safe”
it seems the trauma the man has suffered in his own state isn’t easily undone. Holding back bewildered tears of joy & anxiety he told The Times,
“No tolls? I don’t have to pay anything? Not a dime? You’re bullshittin’ me aren’t ya? What kind of paradise have I come to? Can I stay?”
While the people of Westralia appreciate your praise the answer is, of course, no. He was also asked to sign an NDA at the border upon his departure.
