Get A bumper sticker made. But glue it on with velcro. Yellow background, black letter

Z un ZETA GRANDOTE

Remove it when you get through corrupt towns, and save it for the next town.

Don't let the SSP or Militar see it though.

No, this is not serious. Meant to bring a chuckle.

I completely agree with the eye contact and smile and wave technique. I do it every time I see a cop in fact I usually look to initiate contact. Figured it tells the, I'm not afraid.

In 20+ years I have been pulled over 2 times in probably 75+ trips all over Baja. Both times I was completely at fault both were over 14 years ago.

First time I was going about 70 mph at 11pm on the border fence road. That cost me about 50 bucks. I was young and anxious to get home so just paid the amount. I figured I was speeding so I didn't really have an argument to not pay.

2nd time while passing a slow truck I failed to notice a federal police officer passing me at the same time and ended up running him off the road. I thought I was going to jail that evening for sure. He got back on the road and was beyond peeed. I gave me the what for for about 5 minutes then stopped returned to his car and wrote me a ticket for something like reckless driving. when I went to Ensenada to pay it a couple weeks later it ended up costing me 30 bucks and they even still had my license to give back to me
