Report Check-In

Corrupt Police. Polícia Corrupta.
Vou escrever em português porque essa é importante principalmente para os muitos brasileiros que vem para essa região. Nós passamos nos últimos meses 4 vezes nesse mesmo posto, sempre nos param porque nosso carro é modificado mas só pedem documentação. Dessa vez, estamos sendo rebocados por cambão porque uma peça do carro quebrou, então eles aproveitaram disso para dizer que é uma infração ser rebocado pelo mesmo, sendo que o Item para estrangeiro é obrigatório por lei e o uso também para deslocar o veículo. Mandou irmos para uma salinha (ta ai o perigo) e Inventou uma lei para dizer que estava certo porém já estamos muito acostumados a passar por policias corruptas e enfrentamos, com educação e firmeza. No final ele cedeu, pois sabia que não havia nada errado.

The police stopped us, asked for licence, motorhome papers and our (long out dated) fire estinguisher, then let us kindly go without problem

Careful if you are going south but the other side is fine, lots of cars being Checked when we drove by

Report Check-In

The northeast of the country (particularly Entre Rios) is known for traffic scams. Even if an officer claims the ticket will be more expensive, and your vehicle will be towed if you do not pay on the spot, insist you be issued a formal ticket.

Report Check-In

corrupt police. they find a problem and take you to the officer inside a closed room to negotiate the bribe. tray to have everything 100% correct so they have no reason to fine you.
