Do traffic police do this in your country?

Many countries I know have developed especially in the security sector where the traffic police are equipped with cameras, trackers, and many different gadgets
Well in our country its kind of very different because, Our country is kind of under developed, well don't get me wrong but for the traffic officers, its just all a lot of corruption because basically they do not do their work as expected
A traffic police can pullover a vehicle, basically unroadworthy or overloaded one, only to let everything go because of some money that he is given by the driver.
Bribes being the talk of the driver and the traffic officer, well I don't know how long this will last but, there are also many accidents lately
Well does this happen to your country?

Oh yes it used to happen a lot. But not anymore these days, at least in the city where I live.
I remember that such is also very rampant in Thailand. And the traffic police there are very cheap. The taxi I was in got pulled over and the driver just gave the police 100baht! That's very cheap.

You don't dare bribe a police officer in this country or you will be in much deeper trouble than you started out in.
