I always refused to 'compensate' the Police. This is good news.

It Ain't Broke


Don't TRY to Fix it.

Pay to Play and Go on Your Way with no Delay should survive.

It's a shame to see a long-established tradition of Customer Service and Official
supplementary compensation falling into disrepute after so many years of effective
usage.

We can only hope that, as in so many previous assaults on the system, it will continue
(in a modified and more discrete form) so that those of us who have utilized its
convenience with good judgment will not be Inconvenienced.

Getting a ticket and then mailing in the fine isn't much of a hassle, and it could be cheaper. They might even have an online system that accepts paypal.

Bingo.......yet some of the self righteous on here may be the very same people who transport more than $75 bucks in goods, per person, across the border in the NOTHING TO DECLARE LINE.
The horror of hypocrisy!!!

It's a capitol sin to pay a fine on the spot but not to run the border with over $75 clams worth of goods.

The only thing you forgot in your sweeping assumption was names. Would you tell us exactly to whom you're referring? it would make your assertion so much more clear.

I was sure the words SOME and MAY would be readily apparent that names don't matter.
This particular statement should apply ONLY if the shoe fits and nothing more.

No. You're wrong. Everybody knows you're wrong........just plain wrong.
Not incorrect....not mistaken........just plain 'ol wrong.

One of the better one's I heard was a guy followed into
a parking lot on Revo Ave. TJ by a motorcycle cop.
Wanting $20 or so, the Gringo driver said he would flip
a coin to decide if the cop got his mordida, the cop lost
and in a gentlemanly manner walked away

Urban Tales


Should include all of those Innocents pulled over by the Mex cops for Mordida.

In 50 years of crossing the southern border, I have NEVER experienced THAT.

Every time I had committed the offense noted.

Although a couple were close calls. One especially.

Nonetheless, I haven't been stopped for a contrived reason.

The odds of life would dictate that I would have been if the practice were widespread.

Do the Crime and pay the Dime.

On the spot.

Make a poor Mexican cop's children happy.
