> The policemen in my city were very specific about getting the fine digitally. They wouldn't handle cash even if it was for the fine.

I'm having a hard time believing this. Police corruption is embedded into the very power structure. Which city are you talking about?

The same thing happens in Mexico near the border - the bribe just happens before any possibility of the fine, now (as the fine has you actually mail the payment directly to Mexico).

Have you had to pay a bribe or fine recently?
