So am thinking of buying me a car and driving for the first time in DR/Santo Domingo , How does one handle a police traffic stop ? Specially when you know the police just want “UN REGALITO $ “ and Specially a stop in which you have NOT commited any infraction and you as a tourist or resident are NOT doing nothing ilegal .
The main reason is cause I know myself I will never ever give a penny to them , i refuse to be a sucker…
So with that being said here are some questions about what they can or can not do on a traffic stop / check point
*********
Can they search you vehicles under the famous line “ ESTO ES UN CHEQUEO RUTINARIO” ?
Can they body search you( pat you down ) under the famous line “ esto es un chequeo rutinario” ?
Can they check your cellphone and make you unlocked it under “ esto es un chequeo rutinario”
can they take you to the precinct under the famous line “ esto es un chequeo rutinario” ?
Can they ask for more identification besides license and CAR papers ?
Can they ARREST you specially if you DO not give them a CONTRIBUTION $ ?
