But in the long run, if you were living here, you'd probably piss them off, if they'd stop you all the time and you never gave them any tea money, even though you were breaking the traffic law.

They took pictures of our car's number plate, just because they accused us that we didn't put the belt. We weren't afraid even they carried gun and stood near us because we weren't wrong. While we were talking with police , another car hit our car, but the police didn't stop him and told us they didn't stop that car because we ( owner) not do it. Even they saw what happened to us but they pretended it wasn't their task. It was a bad night!

Did you have to pay them?
