Bangalore Traffic Police — fine for no offence

Address:

Bangalore, Karnataka

I was at Tin factory probably not sure about exact location. I was following google map to check the navigation and I entered a small subway which was one way. I was not aware of it and didn’t see the board of one way as it was night. I told the police officer to spare me as I was new and didn’t knew it. At first he started saying no you have to give fine of 100rs for it. I said since I was not aware of it so entered the one way and the road was empty as I followed google map. He was not ready to listen. He said it’s all rule for India. I said I have not done any traffic violation it’s just that I was not aware of the road n followed google map. Then he got to know that I am not from Karnataka and started abusing and saying go back to your native. I told him first you say about Indian rule then you say about States. I have said on his face that you being corrupt and you should help public instead of harassing for money all the time. If there would have been someone who knows Kanada he would have not fined. I am not happy for this with Bangalore police. And they will do this mostly on weekends and office hours. You don’t see them any other time. I am not blaming all of them but just because of few officers or policeman the whole department is getting bad name. They might have done good things which will be highlighted in social media but bad things are not being highlighted
