Korean cops
Here's an explanation of how Korean cops work here.

In order to drive a scooter 100cc or over, you need a licence. I don't have one. Thus, I drive a 99cc scooter. The day I got it, I was driving it home and I ran a red light. It was a small intersection outside a US army base where nobody ever comes out, and I was following another scooter driven by a local anyway.

We both got pulled over by a cop. Even worse, the cop spoke English. First, he asked me for my licence. I told him I didn't have one. He asked for registration of the scooter, but all I had was a signed piece of paper from my friend. Last, he asked for my national immigration card, which I'm required to carry on me at all times. I had it with me, but I didn't really want him to see it, so I said it was at home. The whole time, I was being courteous. He, finally, knowing I was in violation of at least four laws in front of him, decided the paperwork just wasn't worth it, and waved me on.

I met up with the other scooterist at the next set of lights and he offered me a cigarette.
