A reckless driver was caught and booked by traffic police for reversing
his car and performing a U-turn on a busy expressway in order to pick
peaches in east China's Jiangsu Province.
The scene was recorded in a surveillance video released recently by Jiangsu provincial police.
The video footage shows the driver backing up and making a U-turn toward an orchard and stopped the car on the emergency lane.
Then, together with two passengers, he strode over the expressway fence and dived into the orchard, returning with bags of peaches. The driver tried to cover up their wrongdoings after the traffic police arrived.
"We haven't done anything illegal ... We just picked some peaches," said
the driver.
The driver was given a fine of 200 yuan (£21, $32), with 12 demerit
points on his driving license for backing up his car on an expressway.
This means that his driving license is revoked.
