Overspeeding with no money to pay the fine
- Police
- Traffic Violations
- Paid INR 200
I was coming back from the airport with my family on a Saturday afternoon. With no traffic on the road, we were speeding along. Did not realize that there was a speed limit of 80 kmph.
We were caught by traffic interceptor police with the laser guns. The fine we had to pay was Rs. 300. There were other guys who were being caught as well.
Unfortunately, we did not have that money in hand that time. We told the traffic guy that please give us a ticket and we will pay online.
He asked us to wait for some time. As soon as the other guys left, he pocketed the 200 Rs and let us go.
I also realized that quite a few guys speed up when asked to stop to avoid being caught. The traffic policeman tries to catch them in vain. It is pretty risky and I am surprised that no one has been seriously hurt till now.
