Yesterday I drove from Singida to Nyakanazi and I was pulled over twice for speeding. I am certain I did not exceed 50 within the zones but both times the officers insisted. The second time the officers even had the audacity to pull me over and say I was speeding before the picture was even sent to his phone ! Both time I asked for a copy of the picture and to be shown the spot it was taken and was refused. I was also refused the official yellow receipt.
My questions are, do the police operate with impunity ? I have changed my behavior and never drive over 50 in a zone but if they can take your picture anywhere and extort 30,000 tsh then what are we to do ? What are my rights or do I not have any ?
I should also mention at each place all the drivers were saying the same that they were certain they were not speeding in the zone.
