Perhaps you’re right. I don’t think I’m particularly wealthy looking, but I for sure don’t have the negotiating skills when it comes to law. What do you usually tell them?
I definitely do not plan to speed within cities, that’s for sure!
It’s just for country roads, which is where I’ve been caught going 85 km/h on a deserted highway with a 80 km/h speed limit. It was a ridiculous situation where they refused the bribe and almost made me lose my driver’s license.
Also, I wouldn’t call it pocket change as the average bribe would be costlier than (or at least the same as) your average speed radar detector in the local auto shops. I’ve just never owned one and was wondering if it’s a sham.
