Grapevine

An unnecessary scroll before I get to the content I actually opened the app for Maybe put a toggle feature so that all search doesn't need to go through distilling and there can be quicker, more accurate match searches, if that's what the user wants

How does grapevine make enough money to host this platform. I don't see any Advertisements here. Please discuss.

Beautiful folks of GV - please take a moment to rate us on App/Play store? I just realised I didn't ever ask for it - so shooting my shot now. And also our Play store rating recently took a big hit due to bugs on Android. It would really mean so much to us! :)) [Play Store Page](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.app.gvine&hl=en_IN) [App Store Page](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/grapevine-work-salary-news/id1641708426)

So a few weeks back one of my friends was going back to his house after having a few beers at our place. He was riding his bike and just a few meters away from his home he got caught by cops and was asked to blow into the breathalyser( the alcohol tester). And the reading turned out to be 42, two units more than the permissible limit of 40. They sacked his bike and told him he has to go to court, pay the fine and only then the bike will be released. Our friend called us and told us what had happened. Me and my fiancé went to the police station to see what the scene was. They told the same thing and when we asked why they let other drunk people go and if we can see their test results, the cop was like , the machine switched off and we couldn’t take the test for other people or some shit(apparently there were people not even able to stand properly and were let go, a/c to our friend) My fiancé was hell bent on asking why they only had seized our friend’s bike and no else’s vehicle and I tried to stop him from getting too involved as the argument started heating up and it wasn’t going to help anyone at this point. Fast forward to few days, there was no online challan for his bike still and the cop tells our friend that he needs to pay them in the police station itself that too CASH. Not online. They said once you pay us cash, some OTP will come and you can share that next day in the station. It did seem fishy but the bike was just lying outside the police station and the process wasn’t getting started. And we told ourselves out loud “let’s trust the police and not over think things”. After a day or two these guys went and paid off the cop 13k ( 10k is drunken drive fine btw and 3k for some other shit they took) with no physical record of that transaction. Our friend still awaits that OTP from the station :/ P.S. few lessons from this to the readers: Firstly, please don’t drink and drive as you’re putting a lot of lives at risk. Secondly, if you’re caught for a drunken drive case, know that cops can’t take spot fine for it, only in court this can happen, is what I know( if this OTP thing is true do let us know in comments if you know any cops or if you are one) Also all suggestion are welcome on how he could have handled it better because police wasn’t proceeding with the challan and the bike was going to stay stuck forever there outside the station. Thanks for your time!
