A businesswoman who owns a fleet of trucks decided to install GPS trackers on police cars to monitor their movements and assist her drivers in avoiding traffic fines.

The bold plan to avoid traffic fines was only discovered by chance,

A businesswoman from China was caught using GPS trackers to monitor traffic police vehicles in her area.

The intention was to prevent her fleet of trucks from being stopped and fined. The case occurred in Xiangyang, Hubei province, and surprised many due to the boldness of the plan.

The scheme came to light accidentally. During a routine inspection, the traffic safety brigade found a black box glued to the chassis of one of their patrol cars.

Upon investigating the object, they discovered it was a GPS tracker.

The search for other vehicles revealed that six of the 11 cars in the brigade were equipped with the same type of device.

Mobile App And Alerts For Drivers

The person responsible for the trackers was identified as Zhu, a local woman who owns a transport company with her own fleet.

After analyzing the SIM cards connected to the trackers, the police traced her.

Zhu confessed to having installed the devices alone at night in a station in Xiangzhou, where police cars were parked.

She purchased the trackers online for 50 dollars, and monitored the location of the patrol cars in real-time through an app.

This way, she could warn her drivers about police presence on the roads, allowing them to divert and avoid fines.

Despite the seriousness of the offense, Zhu was only given an eight-day administrative detention and a fine of 500 yuan, equivalent to about 70 dollars.

The decision drew attention for the leniency of the punishment, considering the type of interference in police operations.
