Twice so far i have been stopped in Santiago by always 2 men on a motochoncho-type bikes, regular civilian clothes with bullet-proof vests underneath and some big weird cell-phones, not walkie-talkies, and they searched my car. Last time was by the Codetel building, first by La Sirena. I was going to McDonald's and they pulled next to me on a bike, flashed their badges and told me to pull over, after i did they searched my car and left. After they left i searched the car again to make sure nothing was planted by them. Has this happened to anyone else? It was around 2-3PM with many people around, i am not sure i would pull over if the same scenario was at night with no people around?

Do not stop, just wave at them!! Bunch of assh*** looking for kickbacks...Screw them//

Only stop for AMET, who are clearly identified in their Smokey the Bear hats and olive green uniforms....

Better check to see if you still have your spare tire!!

They have tried to stop me a few times, usually on weekends when there are NOT alot of people around, kind of scary. I usually just tell them I don't speak Spanish (in English of course) and they look at each other like the morons that they are and wave me on.

miesposo has a policy: only stop when you see a shotgun.
never had any trouble despite all sort of pseudo-officials waving at us to stop :)
