Police Violation In The US

Mexico City has a special place in my heart because that is where one of my earlier and more serious relationships emerged and where one of my hardest heartbreak occurred. I always see Mexico with great fondness, even when it comes to bribes. Bribes, class or racial conflicts had always been issues in Mexico at large and particularly in Mexico City. Behind these issues are the underlying problems of poverty, lack of education and moral of low ranking officials, including police officers. While undoubtedly bribes of larger sums are made to high ranking officials to get convenient considerations for business deals, what consumers face on a day to day basis is the bribe paid to local police officers. It is a quick way for police officers to supplement
Once the ticket is issued (or rather, an incident that warrants the issue of a ticket occurs) that is automatically registered on a central system and the evidence is locked in the police database. So the payment cannot be avoided, other than fighting the case in the court of law. The police officer would ask the driver for the reason behind the violation, but that is more or less to figure out the circumstances and to determine if any further investigations are warranted. Although I am not primarily based in the US I do remember a few occasions where I was stopped for traffic violations and got away, saving once that I was issued a citation that remained in the system for six months. I have not had any other traffic violations other than parking violations, which have all been fully paid, so my records are clean in the US. The reason for that was not because of the bribe, but depending on some culture something similar – excuses and arguments. The time I ran through the red light in the middle of the night right in front of the police just waiting for that to happen, I explained that I admit I was going too fast because I just came off the highway and I did indeed see the traffic light change to red but I chose to run through it because at the speed I was going I did not believe I could come to a safe stop and decided running it quickly before anyone else enters the intersection would be a wiser choice given circumstances. That was not a lie and it occurred just as I explained, but it was still an excuse. They let me go. That would never happen in Australia or Japan. A certain level of discretion is generally given to individual police officers in the United States and that has to do with the culture of the United States, as well as the role police officers are expected to perform. These are different from such other countries as Australia or Japan, where
