International Driving Permit

My friend asked what it would take to make this problem go away and (as ZihuaRob referred to in an earlier post) some Franklins came into play -- five of them (which was all he had on him at the time) and he was on his way.

This was nothing more than a police shakedown. Did you not think to record the interaction? At the very least, you should have recorded the officer's name and car number and reported the incident. Eventually, if enough victims come forward, this cockroach will be squashed.

You have not spent any time in Georgia.
