Document forgery is not new and neither is it that unusual, but it does tend to be a bit more thorough than what Chinese police had to deal with when they pulled over a biker.
An incident that occurred at the end of last month in the city of Liuzhou has gone viral on Chinese social media, thanks to photos of the most hilarious and badly-made DIY driver’s license. Top honors for it go to a man surnamed Tang, who actually had the guts to tell the cops that he had hoped no one would look too closely at his fake driver’s license.
He also admitted he was far “too lazy” to get the real thing. Tang didn’t care much for studying and he didn’t like the idea of having to take the exam. A real driver’s license was simply too much hassle for him, so he came up with the idea of making his own.
He bough a real driver’s license cover and, inside, he placed a piece of paper on which he’d scribbled all his personal information and had glued a photo of himself. In his mind, this should have been enough to fool any cop into allowing him to ride his bike on the public roads.
“I didn’t expect the traffic police to be so serious,” he told the officer. He imagined he could just show the cover and would be sent on his merry way.
“He behaved very calmly as he took out the license. The cover of the license was real one, but I was shocked when I saw what was inside,” one traffic police officer said. “I’ve been a police officer for many years, but I’ve never seen a driver’s license quite like this. It’s hilarious!”
Tang has had his motorcycle seized by police, he was ordered to report to the traffic department the next day, and he will be facing a fine, at the very least. As for his horribly fake license, having drawn the photo as well would have taken him into a league of his very own, commenters laugh on social media.
