Hi,
I was returning home when I was stopped by a traffic police in majiwada signal. (Probably saw Other state registration plate). He asked me my driving license, RC book, I showed him. But he was saying I need to show original of my driving license. I told him my home is near by, I can bring it. Then he changed the topic and said your vehicle has sun film. But it wasn't black, so there was more than 70% visibility. But he was saying I need to remove it and took my RC book and DL with him. Then he was saying, even after returning I need to pay a fine of 1000 rs. So I was tired of arguing with him. He asked me a bribe of 500 rs. But I had only 300 rs with me. He didn't give any reciept. So he took the money and let me go. I came home and searched and found out that first time offense was only 100rs for not removing sun film. I felt like cheated for not informing me properly and scared the common people. Their intension is to loot money. There are so many traffic problem and they don't really care about it.
Some please act upon it else we will loose respect on traffic police system.
Regards,
Ramanathan
