I heared many times.. Karnataka RTOs are taking bribes and giving licences and fitness certificates

Majority of road accidents are happening not by carelesness of people but by the corrupted society.. Contractors loot in road making and hence the potholes will come the very next day after road construction finishes. RTOs may take bribe and give fitness certificates and licences. Police may take bribe and wont mind when people violates rules. If found they were guilty then also take bribe and leave them from all cases
