Alarming number of South Africans bribe the police

Who got arrested, Greg or the cop?!!

Alarming number of police accept (or worse, solicit) bribes!

Both parties are guilty in a bribery transaction – it’s worse from the police side as they are supposed to enforce the law, not break it.
If the police have active members with criminal records – as in SA – then only the worst can be expected.

The inmates are running the asylum.

At least that bribe goes to feed some underpaid cops family rather than some Fat cat in JZ’s over fed and over paid government. You know you are being asked for a bribe when they don’t even start writing on their pad, the minute you stop and the cop starts writing your number plate down, you know he’s honest. He can’t cancel it once he starts writing. Just wish you could bribe Sanral cameras.

Get yourself a dash cam, no more bribes

We just returned from a visit to South Africa where we
encountered an extortion attempt by a policeman while on our way to the Cradle
of Humankind just outside Johannesburg. It
was a traffic stop sting. We did not pay but it took 30 minutes of our time to
convince the policeman that we would not pay him – he refused our repeated
requests to just give us a ticket.

We were very upset by the attempted extortion by a policeman
and made us quite wary of police in South Africa during the rest of our visit.
We were surprised at the number of police road blocks in South Africa – I am
not sure why they were there but we encountered them in Johannesburg and on our
travels to/from Kruger and St Lucia. Luckily we were not stopped at any other
road block.

Scary experience.

At the moment there I s no difference between the German SS and the South African Police and the South African public have spoken through the polls. Stop the rot and get rid of Hitler and the head of the SS otherwise we will have a democratic civil uprising. ” A good man who turns a blind eye to immoral activity is doomed to hell”
