Re: [Q&A] Schengen Visa - all you need to know
They allow you to "travel through", not travel into. This is the transit visa exemption for B/C permit holders. It's not only for Italy but applies to all Schengen countries as long as:

Your stay doesn't exceed 5 days
Your final destination is your home country. (and maybe Switzerland)

I'm not so sure how they enforce the second rule on motorways however..

And one other thing I've found during I'net surf, which could be useful for some people: Italy allows you to travel now without visa at all if you hold valid B or C permit. If that was known so far - sorry. Good chance to get to see for some time... At least this is what I planned.
