Charolazo
Flashing official credentials or a badge to bypass rules, skip a line, or get preferential treatment. In Mexico, a "charolazo" is how someone with authority cuts through bureaucracy or avoids a process the rest of us have to follow. It can also refer to an informal cash payment to smooth things over with a police officer.
