The drive from Naples to Sorrento

If any of you have driven this route recently, please could you advise me of how much I should expect to pay at the tollbooths - and the location of them - on the A3 autostrada?

Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help..

(I've tried to work it out on google streetview, and it looks oddly like you go through the 'pay' booths on entry to the motorway - the complete opposite than I'm used to in Italy!)

    We drove this route earlier this year and as far as I can remember there were no tolls, although I'm not sure what road we were on. Parts of it were quite interesting along the sides of steep cliffs.

    Like you, I'm used to paying as you exit the motorway in Italy although you may have to pick up a ticket on the way on so they know how far you've travelled.

    I know there are some tolls in Sicilly (the booths look the same as anywhere else in Italy) and they just charge you a small amount (80c).. Scared the crap out of us when you're used to getting a ticket at the beginning and you find yourself at a toll without a ticket! - you wonder 'how the hell am I going to explain this?!'
