After living and working here for almost 4 years i have taken two road trips to pampanga twice in the last month.
Each time i took my bike - first time i did Nlex for part of it and the second time i did McArther both ways as i find it an enjoyable ride and had another Expat join me on his bike.
Out of the two trips i have been pulled over three times for "Safety inspections" in Pampanga.
The first was standard as every bike was checked and the cop was extremely polite and civil.
The second time myself and the other Expat were "randomly selected"and photographed/ video tapped while the inspection happened.
The third time was on Clarke and things got heated pretty quickly and i was forced to make a call to someone to resolve an non issue.
my question for those who live in pampanga - is this a normal occurrence ? Also i found the pampanga police the last two times to be exceptionally rude and non civil compared to police in Makati, has anyone else found this ???
