I guess so, but few officers can be quite persistence. They'll straight away ask to settle by the road side. No disrespect to authority as few bad apples could be the cuplrit but getting away without ticket after giving 'kopi-0' is more like it.
On one occasion, I was stopped by a traffic police somewhere in Pudu for making an illegal u-turn. I insisted on him to give summon rather than paying the RM50 he asked for.
His respond is, " kau ni bodoh ke apa? saman kau kena RM70. Kau bayar aku RM50 dah ler.."
My simple answer is, " tapi kalau saya bagi rasuah, kita sama2 berdosa tuan..."
In the end, I get away with a warning and Rukunegara...

, " dah la! dah la! lain kali kau jangan buat lagi, faham! ".
