For example, the “land confiscation” incident in Kailu County, Inner Mongolia, caused quite a stir. Around April 2024, several farmers reported that town and village officials prevented them from farming and forcibly seized their vehicles. To continue farming, villagers were required to pay millions in additional contract fees.
Nanjing City also drew public attention due to local government overcharging. On April 23, 2024, Mr. Wang posted online expressing his dissatisfaction. He said that on the afternoon of April 9, while cycling home on Zhongshan Road in Nanjing and crossing the intersection at Huaqiao Road, he was stopped by a traffic police officer for riding against traffic. The officer told him that non-motorized vehicles must be walked across intersections if riding against traffic, but since it was his first violation, he was only given a warning. However, ten days later, Mr. Wang was fined 50 RMB for “riding a bicycle without a license.” People were puzzled, saying they had been cycling for years and had never heard of a license exam for bicycles, so why the fine now?
