The driver was stopped by the Police and asked to provide his papers, which he did. But the Police said until the driver paid GH 10.00 he wouldn't be allowed to go. As the driver begged, the officer increased the money to GH 20.00 and told him that he would keep increasing as the driver kept begging.  
Status note
The driver was released after paying the money
