Ruta 14 must be improving
Yup, same with us. We were up and down Ruta 14 in the first half of Nov 14 and had no problems at all. Plenty of police posts and we were stopped and asked where we were heading twice but no problems. If they have police bikes at the checkpoint they're probably Yamaha 750's and if you point at them smile and admire them they seem to like that!

Update April 2015
Traveled 12 and 14 yesterday. Again lots of police and radar checkpoints. I was waived over on 12 at the now infamous km 28. The cop had an attitude and was pointing at my jacket and left handle bar for some reason. I smiled, introduced myself, shook hands and told him what a great country ARG was. I also spoke no spanish and played the dumb gringo. He was looking frustrated so I ask him "passport"? He nodded so I handed it over. He looked at every page, mumbled United States, looked at my plate as if to compare numbers and waived me on. It appeared the language barrier throw him off guard. No more stops or problems up the 14.

Hey guys!
We tried to download the Anti Corruption Forms some of you postet a few pages ago. Unfortunately the links don´t work. It always says the folders are empty... Do we do something wrong or are the links not working anymore? :helpsmilie: Cheers, currently from Urugugy on our way up to Alaska Bea & Helmut |

I had no bad experiences in Argentina, Chile or Peru.
In Bolivia the Police asked two times for a money, but leave me pass without paying. Also a uniformed Police officer asked for 10 USD for stamping the passport at the border to Peru (Copacobana) - needs 2mins of discussion to sort it. Two weeks the same border was without any hassle :rolleyes2: My Blog: Adventure-Overland Surfy |
One big advantage of not knowing enough Spanish to respond to requests for bribes is I don't know for sure whether I have been asked for a bribe or not. Only sure thing is I have yet to pay one.
Anyone wanting those corruption forms should be able to find them here https://drive.google.com/folderview?...DA&usp=sharing |
Hi guys!
With the new link Tony LEE posted we´ve been able to download all of the forms. Thank you very much! :thumbup1: We haven´t had any problems in over 6 month in South America yet, but you never know. It´s a good feeling to have these forms ready to hand in case we really need them. Cheers from Uruguay Bea & Helmut |
