Something not right?
Description
We were stopped at a big checkpoint. The officer tried to find something wrong. He said we stopped the car a couple of meters past the stop and were driving to fast. He proceeded to tell us, that he will have to write a fine for our „mistake“. This fine we would have to pay as we leave the country. Cherry on top- apparently this fine is 400$. He was clearly waiting for us to make an offer. The discussion ended quickly as we said we would give our ambassy a call and pointed out that we have a dash camera (not true we pointed to the mirror).

Pasamos por el puesto de control a las 11:00 AM y un policía corrupto tocó darle 20 dólares para poder pasar. sin tener fotómetro para medir el polarizado del carro nos pondría el comparendo o multa por tener polarizados, desde Colombia es el único policía que puso problema y nos exigió retirar los polarizados además de tener que pagarle a el 20 dólares
Mucho cuidado ⚠️.
Buen viaje.
