I live 2 hours from The Mexican border. I spent my teens traveling to Mexico with my family and later with friends in my twenties. The last time I was there was 15 years ago, due to the Drug Cartels...it's simply too dangerous. During those years of travel we learned to separate our money into multiple locations. "The Cops" or "Federales" will take EVERYTHING they see. So have a "ticket wallet" with less than $20 and pull that out when you get pulled over. Include an old Costco card, ID, etc. AND do NOT leave your REAL wallet in a purse or other obvious location. Playing stupid, I don't speak Spanish, etc. is an excellent coping mechanism. I'd send this to the U. S. Embassy. They won't like it.

Thank none other than the US. We supply the drug cartels w/ weapons and plenty of American drug addicts willing to buy their product. They terrorize their citizens w/ those weapons and drug proceeds. Indeed, plenty of money as well, to bribe officials and police officers, who in turn are more than willing to rob you. As they have already demonstrated themselves to be corrupt, why not.

Yup always have a local with you. Even if that person speaks Spanish if he’s not from there he’s also a target. When I come to Mexico it’s strictly to be with family in the safety of their homes. If I want to travel to party I’d just go to somewhere in the states there’s plenty of places.

Obviously.! ..you and likeminded people are not welcome there.. Go visit Chicago...! MUCH SAFER...! NO COPS TO PAY BRIBES TO...! ONLY A CHANCE TO BE SHOT.. ! you will only go home in a body-bag...!
We apologize On behalf on the good citizens of Mexico, that's a very common thing of dirty cops, however, next time make sure the cops knows that you're recording By the way I'm a new subscriber 👍
@jorge el chingon I like your moniker. ! Down in Mexico i was "mingo el frances"..I know your country well (over 50 years of travel and residence EVERYWHERE.in the Republica Mexicana.) and I loved every year there..! What i really loved is that the REAL people are friendly and accepted us two gringos with such openness..! Mind you i am from Europe originally and speak four languages plus my Spanish learned in Latin America. About the "CORRUPTION"of the police there, i remember that it was petty, not like the corruption in US or Canadian circles.! And We know of enough cases of people getting jailed because of dirty cops framing them with the blessings of DA's, prosecutors. . judges and lawyer...! Please don't apologize about ANYTHING.. Your country was a great place for me and after crossing the border once i was hooked..! I hope and wish that the resilient populace there thrives in the future.! What about the saying "Pobre Mexico, tan lerjo de Dios y tan cerca de los Estados Unidos"..! Is that how you say it. ?
Mexico doesn't have good citizens. The reason Mexico is like this is because of their citizens, Mexico is a democracy and the fault of every democracy lies at the hands of it's people.
This video surprising absolutely no one, the rental car company probably tipped off the cops when they left the parking lot, lol. Cesspool of crime and corruption.
They definitely tried to take your money illegaly. On minute 14:10, when you're counting the money, cop1 says "ahí así" meaning that that's enough money to pay for the "fine", then cop2 immediately says "no no no hay cámaras, no la había visto", meaning that he hadn't seen the camera inside your car, that's when cop1 tells you to keep your money "guarde bien su dinero" and they just send you off with a warning 'cause supposedly you couldn't make that turn where you did ("esa vuelta no la puede hacer"). Shady cops being shady.
@Roger Rabbits 🔧 Go home with your Trump ass bullshit. They should've built a wall before you and your inbred family arrived, so if a homogeneous society is what you yearn for, go back to whatever paradise your ancestors came from and build a cocoon so people don't hurt your feelings.
This happened to us. They tried to take our rental car because we were "missing papers" despite the rental office being 15 yards away. They then searched the vehicle, patted us down and counted the bills in my wallet. They will let you go if you can prove that you work for the US government in some official capacity.
Olivia you are too brave for your own good. Im from Mexico and there is no way I would go back with all the crimes and corruption going on. I'm sorry this happened to you.
Interesting because tons and tons of americans fleeing to México, and is a real fact...justo check it out in RUclips, asking by myself of is totally true, what You said.
They were following a gps route. It wouldn’t have you make an illegal turn. Mexico is a dangerous place and that’s why all of their people want to come to the US. It’s honestly sickening to see the amount of corruption that goes on. They have a large percentage of terrible people unfortunately and I feel bad for the good ones who live there and are just trying to survive in a corrupt society.
Most of corrupt people is in government. The police boss ask police officers to pay money. Every week that’s why police have to be like that plus they pay a shitty wage. But not all,people is like that
Really?!...with 45 millions of tourists per year and tons and tons of americans fleeing to México for homeoffice. But is easier talk bad about México than countries that invade another ones and start wars for oil...talking about corruption.
Sorry you had to go through that but its a common thing unfortunately. I apologize on behalf of the good people of Mexico. No one should have to get harassed while visiting.
You handled that in the only way you could. Been there- done that. You have to pay them off at the street because if they take you to jail you have many more to pay off. The corruption in Mexico is why I will not go back after having traveled there extensively in the past.
my bf learned the hard way. he followed them to the station, they beat him, stole all his belongings and raped him, he was locked for 15 hours no food, he was never the same again . sadly i have to dump him becasue he has mental issues now,
Me and my grandfather would go to Mexico every week to work on a house he was building and one time we crossed and got stopped in Tijuana by the Mexican army these guys were strapped to the tee ak47 rpg and a mini sub machin gun driving hummers...and they stopped us long story short they took my grandfather's Cuban cigars 70 year old bottle of scotch and $400 dollars and then they had the audacity to ask us how to say "can you please pull over to the side of the road we need to search your vehicle for drugs and weapons" in English because they only knew spanish so that way they could stop and talk to the next American tourist driving by and rob them too ...SMH moral is don't ever go to Mexico flashing any kind of cash or cars or clothes! Cuz you will get it took from you quick either by crooked police the army ...narcos..or your everyday thiefs!
Dude at 7:42 was asking “are you counting your money now”? @13:19 “the plate gets taken off, no citation it stays on”. @13:49 “bro explain to her cuz then she also wants a ticket”. @14:06 cop asking other cop “did she pass the street light or what did she do”? Cop replies but can’t make it out. @14:20 she hands money he says “no, guard and save your own money”. @14:36 “just send information in”, “that turn, you can’t make it here”. “It’s illegal, you can’t drive like that please”. “Drive safe, one street straight down, please”. DANG! IM HISPANIC AND IT HAD ME ON THE EDGE! I WOULD BE PISSED!
This done all the time in Mexico by their law enforcement and yes they will not hesitate to throw you in jail for not going along with it. I used to live in Imperial Beach, CA about 2 exits from the border and used to go to Mexico all the time.
What they don’t know is they were being watched as soon as they went to the car rental and still being watched after the police released them. The police will not extort you if you record them or explain you won’t give them money. But if they know you will pay they will certainly take your money. They do it every day.
They just got me like literally . And made me turn around to the states I’m at the border right now typing this . Bout to let customs know when they ask what did I do in Mexico.
They wanted you to move away from the street cameras , then they realised you were filming them , don’t ever ask them for directions they will expect to be tipped.
He claims you made a turn that is prohibited, had you refuse to pay the fine they would have taken the license plate off the car that’s it. If you understood Spanish you could have said go ahead and take it off I’ll call the rental place and you can deal with them. You were way too eager to open your purse to pay them and this is the reason that this goes on and on.
@@thedelusionaldreamer more like the cop hooked you up the cops here can care less about a camera if they want something they will take it escalate you beat the shit out of you and lock yo ass off for 24 hrs...
WOW @2:05 Crooked ass cop, see's his next victims looks at your license plate. Pisses me off! You did absolutely nothing wrong! Glad u acted confused and stalled. Everyone was watching the shake down on busy street. As soon as you told him you where filming he shit his pants and acted like he was just giving you friendly advice. I'm Mexican /American speak Spanish and understood every word, glad u didn't pay the "Mordelones" Biting dogs, as they are called! I drove in Mx City last month, on one occasion they tried to pull me over and then waived me by, I was in a rental as well.
It was crazy to watch the video afterwards and see the cops out of the side window while we were stopped. They definitely targeted us. Once I told them I was recording, I moved the camera to the dash because I was worried that they may try to take it. Glad they didn't stop you while you were down there.
@@thedelusionaldreamer Guess I got lucky thanks, still don't know why he waived me by though after telling me to stop. These bastards know what they are doing is wrong, and just try to pressure innocent drivers and tourists into paying them cash. I feel so bad for you bc i know this is nerve wrecking. @12:57 cop says "just hurry up take the cash so we can leave" Then You keep asking for a written ticket they don't know what to do bc they know you didn't break any law, so he tries to explain 'If he gives you a ticket he'll have to take your license plate off the car" they do this to insure out of towners go to the Municipality and pay the ticket and get their plate back, they do this to Mexican's with out of town plates on the daily! Its so fucking infuriating! Glad u didn't give them shit!! I'm definitely setting up my go pro next time I drive there! I really enjoyed Mx city otherwise, hope you both had a great trip!

For many Mexicans it is very shameful what they had to go through in our country because of corrupt police officers who did not have the authority to arrest them either. I hope that we are helping your video to be widely seen so that these corrupt police officers are fired and also serve so that we can also eradicate these types of people within any level of our government.
They are corrupt because people give them money. Most of the people don't want to go to the process of a ticket and rather give them money and call it the day. If these cops are corrupt it is because of the people playing their game.
@@escapedfromnewyork Actually, a cop in St. Louis County did me a "favor" by ticketing me for not wearing a seatbelt. He had me for speeding (not much, but over the limit). If he were a "good cop," he would have just warned me. Instead he "compromised" with a $10 ticket for not wearing the belt (which I was). I just mailed it in.
@@hc-xr6uh they walk the line of being fake cope and drug cartels, they can go either way because they can shake tourist for money and make a good living or go with cartels make a lot of money but can also get killed as well as their family if they do not follow through with illegal activities of cartel.
@@bigchefdog Yeah. .i know one that's in the news a lot..! CHICAGO no bent cops...no bribes to pay out.. BUT.. YOU will end up with a bullet in your body..! Yeah, definitely...a better choice. LOL
While you 2 are chewing gum like teenagers, you never let a woman drive when there is a man in the car. Besides, NEVER drive in Mexico. The liberal lefties here would learn how thr real world operates.
When I was younger, I would always get pulled over and pay. However, knew the routine and always only paid $20. As hid my money and wallet. I’m also Mexican American and do not speak Spanish. That would irritate them more as they thought I was a liar 😂💀😂.
Yes, you can get the "gringo car citations" i.e., you pay it there on the street to the cop, or follow them to the police station. I learned that in Mex 30 yrs ago. If you don't know much about Mexico's unwritten rules - don't drive there.
My brother got pulled over in Mexico and they asked for his registration, he handed it to them and the federale placed it into his pocket and asked for it again. When my brother tried to explain that they have it they arrested him for driving a stolen car. He spent three days chained to a wall that he was unable to sit on the floor. My father had to get a State Department Official to release him. When the Federale Police Captain asked for proof of the registration my brother spoke up and told them that the Captain put it in that trashcan. The State Official retrieved it and the Captain threatened my brother right in front of the Statesman. The Mexican Police tried to steal my brother's car and kidnapped him for three days. The tried to insist that my Father pay $25,000 USD bail for my Brother's release. I live in CA. and I will not ever go to Mexico. It's been 40yrs since then, but I still won't go.
same thing happened to me in Cancun, as soon as I got in the rental also. I'm not even white I told them you are barking up the wrong tourist, because I'm a broke Mexican from the U S. You get nervous after it happens, it's so scary.
No seas simple don, si fueras blanco no te hace "latino"...esto no se limita una sola etnicidad en la región, y no tiene nada con ver si te extorsionan.
Being a federal officer means nothing when you are in a different country ! My friend is a cop, and she says even when she gets pulled over you don't say your a cop, to the other cop who you work with in the same station and city ! You take the ticket and go to court, then you use your divine influence !
This is extortion at its finest. These cops wait at the rental car place. First set of cop got $. Then a second group of cops also get in on the action/extortion of $. What a hell hole of a place.
I spend a lot of time riding my motorcycle in Mexico, including getting lost in MX City more than a couple of times. Lots of interaction with the locals and the municipal city cops. Patience and firmness worked everytime. I vowed a long time ago to never be extorted by local law enforcement; the State and Federal police never tried...I love traveling in MX, but dealing with the cops can be a hassle! You are right not to pay them, especially the exorbitant amounts they want. Just makes it tougher on the next motorist who gets stopped, LOL
The policia use to accept my $35.00 and let me cut in line walking to cross to San Diego. Everytime id hide in the line the same officer would always see me and tell me to pay and I’d never say no. Feel bad for cutting, but I’m not saying no to a policia
This happened to me when I was in Dominican Rep. I was stopped for actually being white and blonde American. Had a rental car and supposedly made some wrong turn, stopped by two police walking the beat. I was with a co-worker originally from DR and after short spanish conversation, my friend suggested me giving them $10 or $20 (don't remember years back actually). Then next day I dropped my co-worker and her gf off, then I got stopped again. I was confused how to get back to hotel, but I knew how to get to hotel from a landmark "police station"..Since there was a language barrier after saying I was a little lost...I kept repeating "police station" and eventually, they just walked away. I think they just gave up....at that time, no cameras were in car. I always had plans to go to Colombia, but would only go there with someone I knew and they would have been from there. Had few friends in US from Colombia, but still have not gone there. Thanks for you video.
Please don’t tell me you were going to give him $3,000 dollars?? I’m very sure he meant 3,000 pesos, which is around $150. You all need to be more careful and brush up on the basics before traveling to ANY country.
The cop sitting in the squad saw the dude as you passed, and it was at that moment he told the PO on foot to stop you, but you has already passed him, so the cruisers chased, lol
Same thing happened to me just outside cancun...they wanted my ray bans i had on ...he pointed at them and said "give me ",,,so i did and he let me go...hahaha
I recommend having multiple locations for your money...hidden in numerous locations. Put a "ticket wallet" with old ID, Costco card, old credit cards etc. and $20 to $25 in cash. You shrug and say "no mas". Fyi guys don't have $500 in your pocket! Lol.
You could have negotiated the price, most ticket cost me about $20.00 USD. But that being said always record the police or answer questions in Mexico or the USA. It all the same victimless crimes cost you money but in the USA it cost you more.
I suppose you could have all the red tape and wasted time like here in the U.S.. If I did the crime, I rather pay now and get it over with. As long as I actually did it and the fine is reasonable.
ok so i saw the whole video and the woman does have street smarts and was playing dumb which is pretty slick and manipulated the situation by coyly letting them know she had a camera .
As they say, being a police officer in Mexico is considered an entrepreneurial endeavor. Better to not carry cash, just credit cards, and a Go-Pro if you're going to rent a car.
Happend to me and my family coming back From vacation into Az they took my partners ID and made us follow them to the police station and pay whatever money we had on us to get the ID back now all of us are like ehhhhhh maybe we shouldn’t return but the resort and beach were so beautiful but the corruption is sketchy makes you not want to return
Had cops in TJ pull me and my friends into a back alley and claim they saw us trying to buy drugs. We had to each pay them 100 bucks to let us go or they would have thrown us in jail.
This is sickening and embarrassing being from there. First of all those are public security only they aren’t even supposed to pull over cars!!! Next time make sure you are dealing with transit officers they wear brown uniforms not blue! Next time just throw a fit and tell them that your going to report them to the US embassy or consulate the bigger the words the more pull you have with these PIGS!!!! And record the shit out of them not just yourselves
If you take away the robbery part this is what's it's like for blacks in the us every single day. Imagine how you would feel if you lived there and this is what you had to accept.
America doesn't discriminate! The cops treat all colors the same way! We are all slaves and we will always will be because people are weak with no balls. No one will ever stand up to the Freemasonic Satan worshiping scumbags that rule this entire Flat Earth

Thank goodness.
I would never even consider going there without a friend that spoke fluent Spanish
Yup always have a local with you. Even if that person speaks Spanish if he’s not from there he’s also a target. When I come to Mexico it’s strictly to be with family in the safety of their homes. If I want to travel to party I’d just go to somewhere in the states there’s plenty of places.
You got that right
I'd always recommend that friend does not disclose they speak Spanish ..."playing dumb" has always worked pretty well.

Yeah they are corrupt sf
@@thedelusionaldreamer it could have been much worst. Ive been treated the same here so just not mexico.
Mexico is bad bro. It's not even a county anymore. It's a human, drug, and weapons trafficking center. The cartel runs the country.
@@savageramirez2925 lol
This is why I will never set foot in that country! Such a beautiful Country. It's a shame.
I won't either. There is nothing in that country that I am even slightly interested in. Terrible place.
Used to go, it was great but not anymore! Due to this BS here its just not worth it and you never know when it can get far worse. It happens.....
Is cus you are a scare people. Lol
Don't worry another 45 millions Will do...lol
Olivia is such a trooper . You handled yourself great in this situation :)
Not really, she buckled under pressure and was just going to give them all her money
She's pretty cute but this is a reminder why I can never be with a woman who loves the bubblegum 🤣
Don't go to Mexico people! 🤨🤔
The cartel activity is because of the drug routes that go to gringoland, and the drug trade exists because gringoland is full of drug junckies, they create a huge demand and the way o leads resistance is trough Mexico. Gringos don´t be so high drug abusers.
Of course. I was waiting for this comment. So ignorant😂🤦🏻♂️ if only she knew that she could have paid them at least 200 pesos (+-10 USD) instead of 3000 pesos (+-150 USD). Don’t go somewhere you have no knowledge of. Simple. Do your research first idiot
Obviously.! ..you and likeminded people are not welcome there..
Go visit Chicago...!
MUCH SAFER...!
NO COPS TO PAY BRIBES TO...!
ONLY A CHANCE TO BE SHOT.. !
you will only go home in a body-bag...!
Tell it that to 45 millions of tourists per year...and tons and tons of americans fleeing there to do homeoffice...lol
Secundo la moción. Pinche México es un pozo de vicios, corrupción y mierda, además de corrupta. Hasta la tierra esta sucia!
We apologize On behalf on the good citizens of Mexico, that's a very common thing of dirty cops, however, next time make sure the cops knows that you're recording
By the way I'm a new subscriber 👍
fuck your government and there's NO half on your country are good it's only 1% only
Panochudo.🤣
@jorge el chingon
I like your moniker. !
Down in Mexico i was
"mingo el frances"..I know your country well (over 50 years of travel and residence EVERYWHERE.in the Republica Mexicana.)
and I loved every year there..!
What i really loved is that the REAL people are friendly and accepted us two gringos with such openness..!
Mind you i am from Europe originally and speak four languages plus my Spanish learned in Latin America.
About the "CORRUPTION"of the police there, i remember that it was petty, not like the corruption in US or Canadian circles.! And
We know of enough cases of people getting jailed because of dirty cops framing them with the blessings of DA's, prosecutors. . judges and lawyer...!
Please don't apologize about ANYTHING..
Your country was a great place for me and after crossing the border once i was hooked..!
I hope and wish that the resilient populace there thrives in the future.!
What about the saying
"Pobre Mexico, tan lerjo de Dios y tan cerca de los Estados Unidos"..!
Is that how you say it. ?
Man fock those white people lol ! Do they ever apologize to blacks and Mexicans in America when we get profiled by the cops ? No
Mexico doesn't have good citizens. The reason Mexico is like this is because of their citizens, Mexico is a democracy and the fault of every democracy lies at the hands of it's people.
Mexico: Where you can get robbed by both the criminals and the police.
Welcome to united states
@@Dosindapendence we're not that far behind
Easy solution, don't go to that shit hole.
USA...Where you can be robbed by criminals and your governments. It's the same everywhere people. The robber just wears a different costume.
In the USA they will take all the money, not just a small bribe. Asset forfeiture.
This video surprising absolutely no one, the rental car company probably tipped off the cops when they left the parking lot, lol.
Cesspool of crime and corruption.
Don’t do that to them when they are over here in the USA 🇺🇸 because it’s racist 😂 .
They definitely tried to take your money illegaly. On minute 14:10, when you're counting the money, cop1 says "ahí así" meaning that that's enough money to pay for the "fine", then cop2 immediately says "no no no hay cámaras, no la había visto", meaning that he hadn't seen the camera inside your car, that's when cop1 tells you to keep your money "guarde bien su dinero" and they just send you off with a warning 'cause supposedly you couldn't make that turn where you did ("esa vuelta no la puede hacer"). Shady cops being shady.
Thank you! Super shady. It was one of those things you hear about happening but that you hope isn't true.

@Roger Rabbits 🔧 Go home with your Trump ass bullshit. They should've built a wall before you and your inbred family arrived, so if a homogeneous society is what you yearn for, go back to whatever paradise your ancestors came from and build a cocoon so people don't hurt your feelings.
This happened to us. They tried to take our rental car because we were "missing papers" despite the rental office being 15 yards away. They then searched the vehicle, patted us down and counted the bills in my wallet. They will let you go if you can prove that you work for the US government in some official capacity.
she should have flashed her badge as soon as they walked up. :)
I tell people do not drive I Mexico. Taxi only You are asking to get taken. Taxi way cheaper
Evidently these cops don't want their crimes reported to U. S. Government.
Lol.
Makes zero sense to drive there. Zero Benefits
@@godbyone Exatcly!! Zero benefits… ALL liability
It’s all organized and it started at the rental place. The people at the car rental place are also involved.

They were following a gps route. It wouldn’t have you make an illegal turn. Mexico is a dangerous place and that’s why all of their people want to come to the US. It’s honestly sickening to see the amount of corruption that goes on. They have a large percentage of terrible people unfortunately and I feel bad for the good ones who live there and are just trying to survive in a corrupt society.
The u.s is a very dangerous place too to much mass shootings. The bad thing is the u.s dont have no where to go
Most of corrupt people is in government. The police boss ask police officers to pay money. Every week that’s why police have to be like that plus they pay a shitty wage. But not all,people is like that
And we don't want them here unless they do it legally
Do all Mexicans want to go to the US? Stop swallowing the crap that comes out of the American media.
Really?!...with 45 millions of tourists per year and tons and tons of americans fleeing to México for homeoffice.
But is easier talk bad about México than countries that invade another ones and start wars for oil...talking about corruption.
Sorry you had to go through that but its a common thing unfortunately. I apologize on behalf of the good people of Mexico. No one should have to get harassed while visiting.
What brand of gum do y'all chew?! I wanna be this confident!!
You handled that in the only way you could. Been there- done that. You have to pay them off at the street because if they take you to jail you have many more to pay off. The corruption in Mexico is why I will not go back after having traveled there extensively in the past.
my bf learned the hard way. he followed them to the station, they beat him, stole all his belongings and raped him, he was locked for 15 hours no food, he was never the same again . sadly i have to dump him becasue he has mental issues now,
THATS A VERY BAD IMAGE FOR TOURISM & FOREIGN RELATIONS FOR MECICO. Mexico loosing millions because of this!!!!
Sorry correction MEXICO🙏☝️.
Me and my grandfather would go to Mexico every week to work on a house he was building and one time we crossed and got stopped in Tijuana by the Mexican army these guys were strapped to the tee ak47 rpg and a mini sub machin gun driving hummers...and they stopped us long story short they took my grandfather's Cuban cigars 70 year old bottle of scotch and $400 dollars and then they had the audacity to ask us how to say "can you please pull over to the side of the road we need to search your vehicle for drugs and weapons" in English because they only knew spanish so that way they could stop and talk to the next American tourist driving by and rob them too ...SMH moral is don't ever go to Mexico flashing any kind of cash or cars or clothes! Cuz you will get it took from you quick either by crooked police the army ...narcos..or your everyday thiefs!
Now tell it that to...45 millions of tourists per year and americans fleeing to homeoffice.
Dude at 7:42 was asking “are you counting your money now”? @13:19 “the plate gets taken off, no citation it stays on”. @13:49 “bro explain to her cuz then she also wants a ticket”. @14:06 cop asking other cop “did she pass the street light or what did she do”? Cop replies but can’t make it out. @14:20 she hands money he says “no, guard and save your own money”. @14:36 “just send information in”, “that turn, you can’t make it here”. “It’s illegal, you can’t drive like that please”. “Drive safe, one street straight down, please”. DANG! IM HISPANIC AND IT HAD ME ON THE EDGE! I WOULD BE PISSED!
You weren’t even scared , and played it smartly.
Just 2 Americans chewing gum! Constantly! It's more annoying than getting potentially robbed.
This done all the time in Mexico by their law enforcement and yes they will not hesitate to throw you in jail for not going along with it. I used to live in Imperial Beach, CA about 2 exits from the border and used to go to Mexico all the time.
when in mexico assume every single cop is corrupt...... its a mood killer i know but you did well.
Unless México don't invade countries and start wars for oil.
@@joserobertoramirezarevalo4610 at least the u.s. doesnt rule the people like north korea, whats your point lol
What they don’t know is they were being watched as soon as they went to the car rental and still being watched after the police released them. The police will not extort you if you record them or explain you won’t give them money. But if they know you will pay they will certainly take your money. They do it every day.
They just got me like literally . And made me turn around to the states I’m at the border right now typing this . Bout to let customs know when they ask what did I do in Mexico.
Did you make it back ok?
As soon as they spotted that you were foreigners as you went past them they took off after you, it was like they spotted there mark and came for you.
They wanted you to move away from the street cameras , then they realised you were filming them , don’t ever ask them for directions they will expect to be tipped.
He claims you made a turn that is prohibited, had you refuse to pay the fine they would have taken the license plate off the car that’s it. If you understood Spanish you could have said go ahead and take it off I’ll call the rental place and you can deal with them. You were way too eager to open your purse to pay them and this is the reason that this goes on and on.
I did not pay them any money.
@@thedelusionaldreamer more like the cop hooked you up the cops here can care less about a camera if they want something they will take it escalate you beat the shit out of you and lock yo ass off for 24 hrs...
When told about the "policia" taking the plates we took both offand displayed them inside the car through the windshield..
WOW @2:05 Crooked ass cop, see's his next victims looks at your license plate. Pisses me off! You did absolutely nothing wrong! Glad u acted confused and stalled. Everyone was watching the shake down on busy street. As soon as you told him you where filming he shit his pants and acted like he was just giving you friendly advice. I'm Mexican /American speak Spanish and understood every word, glad u didn't pay the "Mordelones" Biting dogs, as they are called! I drove in Mx City last month, on one occasion they tried to pull me over and then waived me by, I was in a rental as well.
It was crazy to watch the video afterwards and see the cops out of the side window while we were stopped. They definitely targeted us. Once I told them I was recording, I moved the camera to the dash because I was worried that they may try to take it. Glad they didn't stop you while you were down there.
@@thedelusionaldreamer Guess I got lucky thanks, still don't know why he waived me by though after telling me to stop. These bastards know what they are doing is wrong, and just try to pressure innocent drivers and tourists into paying them cash. I feel so bad for you bc i know this is nerve wrecking. @12:57 cop says "just hurry up take the cash so we can leave" Then You keep asking for a written ticket they don't know what to do bc they know you didn't break any law, so he tries to explain 'If he gives you a ticket he'll have to take your license plate off the car" they do this to insure out of towners go to the Municipality and pay the ticket and get their plate back, they do this to Mexican's with out of town plates on the daily! Its so fucking infuriating! Glad u didn't give them shit!! I'm definitely setting up my go pro next time I drive there! I really enjoyed Mx city otherwise, hope you both had a great trip!
Smacking the hell out of that Gum 😄

This is so embarrassing!! We gotta get those guys off the street foreals!

By paying on the side of the road you are rewarding corruption you're part of the problem.

@@enaibee1661 Spent time touring Mexico on a bike and ran into this a few times. Just kept asking questions and acting confused and stupid with a willingness to wait and wait and not reward bad behaviour. Be polite, be ridiculously dense, but be polite.
For many Mexicans it is very shameful what they had to go through in our country because of corrupt police officers who did not have the authority to arrest them either. I hope that we are helping your video to be widely seen so that these corrupt police officers are fired and also serve so that we can also eradicate these types of people within any level of our government.
Like American police are any better
They are corrupt because people give them money. Most of the people don't want to go to the process of a ticket and rather give them money and call it the day. If these cops are corrupt it is because of the people playing their game.
@@escapedfromnewyork Actually, a cop in St. Louis County did me a "favor" by ticketing me for not wearing a seatbelt. He had me for speeding (not much, but over the limit). If he were a "good cop," he would have just warned me. Instead he "compromised" with a $10 ticket for not wearing the belt (which I was). I just mailed it in.
@@hc-xr6uh they walk the line of being fake cope and drug cartels, they can go either way because they can shake tourist for money and make a good living or go with cartels make a lot of money but can also get killed as well as their family if they do not follow through with illegal activities of cartel.
They're just about as corrupted here. The higher the rank in the U.S.the more corrupted
I had the same thing happen to me. They took me to the police station. I told them I only had 200.00 pesos. They took it.
Never offer money, have them write the Damn ticket!!!!
I kept asking for the ticket, because I knew there wouldn't be one. Haha!

While you 2 are chewing gum like teenagers, you never let a woman drive when there is a man in the car. Besides, NEVER drive in Mexico. The liberal lefties here would learn how thr real world operates.
Well not really. She was going to give him the money until he stopped her.
When I was younger, I would always get pulled over and pay. However, knew the routine and always only paid $20. As hid my money and wallet. I’m also Mexican American and do not speak Spanish. That would irritate them more as they thought I was a liar 😂💀😂.
Jealously you are an American.
They receive a miserable paycheck every 15 days. This is normal
Yes, you can get the "gringo car citations" i.e., you pay it there on the street to the cop, or follow them to the police station. I learned that in Mex 30 yrs ago. If you don't know much about Mexico's unwritten rules - don't drive there.
My brother got pulled over in Mexico and they asked for his registration, he handed it to them and the federale placed it into his pocket and asked for it again. When my brother tried to explain that they have it they arrested him for driving a stolen car. He spent three days chained to a wall that he was unable to sit on the floor. My father had to get a State Department Official to release him. When the Federale Police Captain asked for proof of the registration my brother spoke up and told them that the Captain put it in that trashcan. The State Official retrieved it and the Captain threatened my brother right in front of the Statesman. The Mexican Police tried to steal my brother's car and kidnapped him for three days. The tried to insist that my Father pay $25,000 USD bail for my Brother's release. I live in CA. and I will not ever go to Mexico. It's been 40yrs since then, but I still won't go.
Don't worry...another 45 millions Will visited with no problem...LOL.

At 14:12 His partner literally said "no dude no dude! Don't take the money! They've got a camera, I hadn't seen it"
same thing happened to me in Cancun, as soon as I got in the rental also. I'm not even white I told them you are barking up the wrong tourist, because I'm a broke Mexican from the U S. You get nervous after it happens, it's so scary.
No seas simple don, si fueras blanco no te hace "latino"...esto no se limita una sola etnicidad en la región, y no tiene nada con ver si te extorsionan.
Being a federal officer means nothing when you are in a different country ! My friend is a cop, and she says even when she gets pulled over you don't say your a cop, to the other cop who you work with in the same station and city ! You take the ticket and go to court, then you use your divine influence !
They are the same everywhere.
Off course they don’t say they are cops in camera.
This is extortion at its finest. These cops wait at the rental car place. First set of cop got $. Then a second group of cops also get in on the action/extortion of $. What a hell hole of a place.
In Mexico they take your money, in the U.S. they take your life… talk about hell holes right?
@@o.m.2203 The U.S. ain't perfect either. You're right about that.
You hear the stories, but you go anyway and your surprised💀
I spend a lot of time riding my motorcycle in Mexico, including getting lost in MX City more than a couple of times. Lots of interaction with the locals and the municipal city cops. Patience and firmness worked everytime. I vowed a long time ago to never be extorted by local law enforcement; the State and Federal police never tried...I love traveling in MX, but dealing with the cops can be a hassle! You are right not to pay them, especially the exorbitant amounts they want. Just makes it tougher on the next motorist who gets stopped, LOL
I'm surprised you haven't got your ass kicked or humiliated if you're speaking the truth.
The policia use to accept my $35.00 and let me cut in line walking to cross to San Diego. Everytime id hide in the line the same officer would always see me and tell me to pay and I’d never say no. Feel bad for cutting, but I’m not saying no to a policia
You gotta ask to be taken to a station house.
But after that "no camera" line I would have offered $1000
No thats dumb
i would never give them a cent of my money i will spend it vacationing in the USA where my government hands my money over to them
This happened to me when I was in Dominican Rep. I was stopped for actually being white and blonde American. Had a rental car and supposedly made some wrong turn, stopped by two police walking the beat. I was with a co-worker originally from DR and after short spanish conversation, my friend suggested me giving them $10 or $20 (don't remember years back actually). Then next day I dropped my co-worker and her gf off, then I got stopped again. I was confused how to get back to hotel, but I knew how to get to hotel from a landmark "police station"..Since there was a language barrier after saying I was a little lost...I kept repeating "police station" and eventually, they just walked away. I think they just gave up....at that time, no cameras were in car. I always had plans to go to Colombia, but would only go there with someone I knew and they would have been from there. Had few friends in US from Colombia, but still have not gone there. Thanks for you video.
Please don’t tell me you were going to give him $3,000 dollars?? I’m very sure he meant 3,000 pesos, which is around $150.
You all need to be more careful and brush up on the basics before traveling to ANY country.
Facts!!
The cop sitting in the squad saw the dude as you passed, and it was at that moment he told the PO on foot to stop you, but you has already passed him, so the cruisers chased, lol
Same thing happened to me just outside cancun...they wanted my ray bans i had on ...he pointed at them and said "give me ",,,so i did and he let me go...hahaha
You can't have good time with the cartel and the police. I stay away

You could have negotiated the price, most ticket cost me about $20.00 USD. But that being said always record the police or answer questions in Mexico or the USA. It all the same victimless crimes cost you money but in the USA it cost you more.

Of course we should get rid of corruption. However, we also need an outright ban on gun chewing.
ok so i saw the whole video and the woman does have street smarts and was playing dumb which is pretty slick
and manipulated the situation by coyly letting them know she had a camera .
Thank you for making through the video! Seems like all the other people commenting assumed I paid the cops off.
The guy in the car was so calm. I would not be the same. I would say I'll pay by by card or pay at designated office
This is insane smh those cops need to be in jail.
Yup, they know you're a tourist because of the rental car. They just look at your license plates.
Film people film.... always ask for a citation.
I never drive through Mexico, but when I do I carry a taco and a dime
I've had this happen to me on multiple occasions!! It happens regularly in Tijuana but Mexico city cops are the problem!!
This is nothing compared to what happens in Kenya. You'd have been literally kidnapped..
As they say, being a police officer in Mexico is considered an entrepreneurial endeavor. Better to not carry cash, just credit cards, and a Go-Pro if you're going to rent a car.
They would make you visit an ATM somehow.
Nevermind Mexican police
Better check US Police attitude
Did this to me I just paid $1,000 he walked away with my cash I’m not going to 🇲🇽 no more
Happend to me and my family coming back
From vacation into Az they took my partners ID and made us follow them to the police station and pay whatever money we had on us to get the ID back now all of us are like ehhhhhh maybe we shouldn’t return but the resort and beach were so beautiful but the corruption is sketchy makes you not want to return
Had cops in TJ pull me and my friends into a back alley and claim they saw us trying to buy drugs. We had to each pay them 100 bucks to let us go or they would have thrown us in jail.
What kind of US federal officer are you? Are you with the Embassy there?
You chewing that gum bothers me he should of taken you to jail just for that.

This is sickening and embarrassing being from there. First of all those are public security only they aren’t even supposed to pull over cars!!! Next time make sure you are dealing with transit officers they wear brown uniforms not blue! Next time just throw a fit and tell them that your going to report them to the US embassy or consulate the bigger the words the more pull you have with these PIGS!!!! And record the shit out of them not just yourselves
You should have gave them 3000 gums, called it the day lmaoooo.

There's also civil asset forfeiture here. Some departments abuse it to the max.
If you take away the robbery part this is what's it's like for blacks in the us every single day. Imagine how you would feel if you lived there and this is what you had to accept.
America doesn't discriminate! The cops treat all colors the same way! We are all slaves and we will always will be because people are weak with no balls. No one will ever stand up to the Freemasonic Satan worshiping scumbags that rule this entire Flat Earth
Legalized robbery! You can call it corrupt, but, it's not. If it's routine, then it's condoned.
