Someone suffering from toll booth operator syndrome would not let you pass if you arrived at the toll booth a penny short with your wife in labor in the passenger seat.

The act of tapping the breaks when going through a toll-booth after you see the speed limit or stop sign. Even though you have absolutely no intention of stopping.
