- Paid INR 50
Was going to office on bike. At a junction, traffic lights were off and cop was manually directing. Waited patiently for our road's turn. When our turn to go came, I crossed junction along with all other traffic. The cop stopped me and asked for license and PUC. Showed him both. He said I should not have crossed intersection. Told him I was part of all the traffic that he allowed to cross. He refused and asked where I work. I replied Andheri. He said we will keep my license and I have to go to Worli to pay the fine. I told why to Worli. He said as per the rule the fine has to be paid there. If I wanted to avoid wasting 1 day, he could let me off if I paid Rs 50/-. I protested that firstly I did not break any rule, secondly I had all papers and yet he was harassing me. But since I was getting for work and was disgusted with the man's behaviour, I paid Rs 50/- and took back my license from him.
