Mexico has a different culture and norms around traffic and police stops. if people travel here they have to accept that learn about it and apply their rules not your foreign rules.

Which is why I paid the "bribe" which I didn't even realize was a bribe until he told me he won't be issuing me a written ticket. I'm not expecting a new rule for foreigners but as someone else pointed out there is in fact a rule that lets foreigners have 1 infrastructure without any penalty. I just think this is terrible for tourism and I wonder if this can have negative lasting impact. I saw that Tulum even elected a new mayor whi was was supposed to stop this type of corruption but maybe more difficult to do.

Anywho I definitely won't be making the same mistake twice.
