I have been stopped twice whilst on motorcycle. Both times I was in the wrong (turned left from a straight on lane etc). Despite international license I was still given the threat of court. I offered 50,000Rp as a way of apology to help the 'misunderstanding go away'. Both times it was accepted. Are the police corrupt, yes; will they go looking to pick on the innocent, no. It's a place to visit. If you do the wrong thing however it will cost to make it 'go away'
