Traffic Police in Bangalore - During non busy hours, You will never find them until you break some rule. They will always be present in least expected places - hiding, waiting, ready to hunt their prey.
I was in a bit hurry & stuck in a traffic signal. There was no free left, but I took my chance. Caught!
It was no constable, but a happily smiling Sub-Inspector. He verfied all the docs and said,
" Didn't you see No Free Left sign? "
" Sir, I was in a bit hurry and didn't notice the sign "
" No excuse. 100 Rs please "
" I dont have 100 Rs, I have 50 Rs only "
" Pay 100Rs or Leave your vehicle here "
" Sorry Sir, I wont repeat this mistake again. Please let me go "
" No. No excuse. Pay 100 Rs and they you can "
" I have only 50 Rs "
" Ok, Give. But dont repeat this mistake again "
Now comes the best part - I pulled out a 100 rupee bill and said -
" Sir! Change please "
I did succeed in convincing him that the remaining 50 bucks were required for petrol !!
