If you're traveling outside the Anglosphere/Western Europe, bribing law enforcement officials is not uncommon. You should always have cash on hand in case you need to do so. The amount varies from country to country, but somewhere between $100-200 should suffice. It wouldn't be a bad idea to have enough for more than one cop either, because it sure as hell beats the alternative of being imprisoned in some god-forsaken shithole.

Depending on where you are from, It would lead you to some more Friendly "Starter" destinations.
It may even be worth doing a few Internal trips first to ease in to knowing how to get the best out of a trip.
Live in NY, Visit LA or vice versa.
