Bribe for DL issue

Reported on September 25, 2010 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #30732

I got my DL in 1998, selected 2000 above since it is not allowing me to select earlier dates. The inspector came to take the driving test, he had about 40 odd forms with him, most of them from various driving schools. I was also from one. He asked me to get out of the vehicle, took me to the side, openly asked for Rs.1000. When I told him, I was from a specific well known driving school, he reduced the rate and wanted me to give him 500. I had to bargain with him and gave him Rs.200. I had no choice, I could not afford not to get my DL. It sucks though. Not the 200, the shamelessness of the person who asked and the helplessness of the person who gave.
