Me and a friend got pulled over by the cops in Malawi whilst on the highway.
We'd already been caught/scammed/fined the day before because we were riding around town without all our documents on us. And that's a crime..(It actually is) Fair cop.. Probably.
This time I got off my bike and while the cop gestured the international sign for money with his fingers I fell down and pretended to be unwell. My riding partner waved his hands and shouted "Malaria, Hospital... Malaria, hospital"
The cops immediately waved us on not wanted a dead tourist on his hands..
That worked twice..
