Yes i have bribed the traffic cops.. One time for Lane crossing in the city, he asked me to pay a heavy fine, but i gave a bribe of small amount and escaped. Next time for signal jumping, he asked me to pay some very heavy amount, bu i gave him a very small amount as a bribe and escaped. Third time, i was carrying my cpu in my bike with my friend, it was considered as a heavy load, so he asked me pay fine, but i bribed him too.. Thrice i have done this.. But i'm not ashamed of doing so , because i'm not ready to pay huge fines, and i'm alone not responsible for doing these mistakes, i crossed the lane, because a car was blocking my lane and i was forced to travel in the other lane, i jumped the signal because there was no orange signal before turning red, while was driving in 70 kmph, suddenly the signal changed to red, i almost braked but i crossed the stop line and landed in the hands of police, this was not at all my mistake, somebody ask the govt, to ensure orange signal before red in all signals in the city, so i will be applying the brakes when i see the orange and not the red.. Somebody propose to govt to reduce the price of fuel, so i might consider talking my cpu in a taxi or in my car, or in an auto. Mistakes are not mine..

Dude, mistakes are easy to point out and other people can be blamed with ease. With the decreasing amount of petroleum in the earth, the governments of al countries have no other choice than to increase the price of the fuel. Also, 70 kmph is overspeeding and there were mistakes in your part too!

I have bribed before. If you go to any government office and you want to get things done immediately, there's no way to go about it but to bribe someone. Sad but true, this is the situation in my country.

Frequently, and with no conscience whatsoever. One, I bribe my dogs every month. Every time I flea them, they act like I beat them on a regular basis. I can't take a dog cringing from me for a week. It breaks my heart. So now I give them a yummy treat right after. They remember me for the treat and not the bad thing. Two, anything nice I do for the hubby gets me treated real sweet for a day. Three, co-workers. Anything one can do for a co-worker tends to make them quite willing to do things for you.

Certainly! I bribe my family, my friends, and so on..Usually with money or food or energy drinks. Because no one will do anything that I'd like them to any other way! I HAVE to bribe people - otherwise, as you said, the work just doesn't get done!

I don't bribe. I use questioning to get to know the truth and when I want something unusual from someone I just ask it straight in their face. Important things are something I won't let go easily so I will put them under pressure. You have to plead a cause called: "you".
