We Were Stopped By Police in Sri Lanka

We had our first problems with police in a foreign country on this drive from Hikkaduwa to Mirissa, Sri Lanka. We have never had problems with police while traveling before, so this was a new one for us! As you can see, traveling Sri Lanka on a motorbike isn't always rainbows and sunshine.. Things would have probably been simpler had we had the correct license in our day bags, but we are still left wondering what was really going on in this encounter with police. Why did they ask for both of our licenses? Why did they keep telling us not to call anyone? Why did they tell us not to get our correct license from the bag? Hmmmmm....
Let's focus on the better parts of this day for a minute. Our lunch stop at Mr. Sunil's roti and juice shop was a total delight. Those views!!! But easily the BEST part of the day was seeing our favourite street dog again!! You'll have to watch the video for the whole story, but seeing how this dog is doing today was a very emotional reunion for us. She is still fighting cancer, but to see that she is alive and her coat looks so much healthier was a huge relief.
Did you know there are more than 4 million street dogs in Sri Lanka? We have never seen a more dire street dog problem in any part of the world. The locals do what they can to help feel the animals, but they simply can't sustain such a huge stray dog population. Spay and neuter programs are essential if this problem is ever going to be contained. If you feel inclined to donate to a charity that is doing incredible work with street dogs in Mirissa, Sri Lanka, you can head to tinyurl.com/3pc4c7m6 to donate to an amazing non-profit organization.

Hi everyone! We really appreciate your kind and helpful responses to this video. We filmed a small update for you all as we had received so many messages and comments expressing concern over this police encounter, especially from Sri Lankans. It it just 1 minute to say how we are feeling and we'd love for you to watch it 😊 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZaIeraSl5zXlHk.html We originally filmed this update for Facebook and TikTok because the police encounter has gone viral in a few places, but we wanted to share it here as well because so many of you have shared your feelings of shame, sadness, or upset with us on KZfaq as well. Thank you for caring about us 💛

I don't think there was any problem with your license card. Cop just wanted to make some money off you guys. You could share the footage with the tourist police division and hope they take some action against those cops. Chances are slim, but still worth a try.

That’s the issue. They should have been fined. They yell at the police after producing the incorrect docs: in their own country do you think this would have been tolerated by their police? This is a very colonialistic attitude. Bear in mind there’s also a language barrier. The posters are resorting to cheap promotion of their video by making accusations which are unfounded. They were let off free. If you go to the airport you have the correct docs ready at hand. Then why not when you ride a scooter in a foreign country? Keep your docs at hand. When the police question, don’t yell at them! You are in the wrong!!

I'm a Brit and have been here 9 years. I have an official SL Driving Licence which was prertty painless to get and is valid for 10 years. In that time I've been stopped twice - once coming off the Southern Expressway after getting flashed by cameras - I paid the fine and once a couple of weeks ago driving up to Colombo but I just scowled at the cop and he waved me off. I'd be more worried about your drone than you licences - just be careful with it.

Nichole and Mico - This happened to my friends and I, too. I was born in Sri Lanka, raised in the United States. We hired a driver to take us around, and We got pulled over on a rural road, saying the driver crossed the lane or some garbage like that, and it turned out to be complete crap. The cop checked everyone's IDs, so I gave him my US passport. Despite that, he was demanding a Sri Lankan ID. I tried to explain that I was American and didn't have a local ID that did not sit well with him. Mind you, We had hired a driver for this particular trip, and I wasn't even driving. This crooked cop called my driver aside and asked him to bring 25k to him in local currency. He further asked him not to tell me, but part of the problem was that I didn't have a "Sri Lankan ID" on my person. 😂 I think they make up rules as they go along and waste so much of our times. We negotiated down to 10k and paid the damn ransom money as my driver was paranoid he will be thrown in jail (I think they threatened him in Sinhalese, but I don't understand the language). In hindsight, I wish I had my camera out and started recording them. This happened during my visit in 2019. I see it hasn't changed much as I saw another Indian guy, (KZfaqr) was asked to turn his camera off, and the Dirty cop demanded a bribe that was at Galleface. They are still operating all over the island. Please be careful and keep the Camera rolling.....enjoy your visit and your time spent with Mirissa.

Sorry you two had to go through this stressful situation. Please report these crooks to the proper authorities as they were clearly asking for bribes. It will prevent future recurrences and help Sri Lanka too.

These cops were seeking a bribe, good it didn't workout. At the same time, I think you produced your AA Membership Card, which is not the license (the other cop in the background says something similar in Sinhala). So yeah, keep your License, Insurance, Rental dox etc handy... and I'm glad you managed to expose the dirty cops. And yeah, the Mirissa Girl
