During the peak period of returning from the Spring Festival, emergency vehicles were illegally occupied on the expressway, which caused dissatisfaction from some fellow passengers and car owners who reported "casual shooting". Recently, two car owners encountered the above situation on their way back. They chose to take photos of the vehicles occupying the emergency lane and report them. After the two posted their experience on social platforms, they attracted attention. Some people praised them for "well done", while others said "why bother being so serious".
On February 24, when interviewed by Jiupai News, the car owner Ms. Li said that she had been recording between 3:30 and 4:30 that day, and reported multiple vehicles in total. It took more than two hours to upload. "The phone is out of battery. Plug in the power bank and continue uploading." The reported information is still being processed. Ms. Li said that she posted the message to attract attention and wanted more people to join in reporting illegal vehicles in order to maintain traffic order.
On the 24th, according to upstream news reports, the car owner took a car from Guangxi back to Wuhan, Hubei Province during the Spring Festival return peak period. He encountered a congestion of about 6 kilometers on the highway in Hunan. The navigation showed that it would take about an hour to pass. Her family was driving at the time, and she was sitting in the passenger seat. She saw many vehicles occupying the emergency lane unscrupulously, and even caused more vehicles that were originally queuing to follow suit. "Seeing the emergency lane gradually turning into a 'fast lane', I feel that something must be done to stop this trend - the emergency lane is a life channel and should not become a shortcut for speculators, let alone those who queue up and obey the rules to suffer."
The car owner said that she tried to search the reporting channels of the Hunan Expressway Traffic Police and spent more than half an hour reporting more than 20 illegal vehicles. Currently, the system reports that 3 vehicles have failed to report due to unclear features or insufficient clarity in the photos, and the rest are still being processed.

Nine Pai reporters learned from the Hunan Provincial Expressway Traffic Police Department that from February 2 to March 13, the Hunan Expressway Traffic Police will continue to carry out the "Report Traffic Violations, Join Hands to Create Civilization" illegal reporting activity, advocating the majority of traffic participants to say "no" to uncivilized driving behaviors that disrupt traffic order. Regarding driving or parking in the emergency lane in non-emergency situations, Hunan Provincial Expressway will review all reports in accordance with the law, and the top 500 whistleblowers who pass the review will receive a "Traffic Police Bear".

The ink on the documents was not dry yet, but the action was already underway.几乎在同一时刻，政府代表在没有获得任何邀请的情况下抵达两个货柜码头。 They informed Panamanian Ports Company representatives that the concession "no longer exists" and that the company must terminate operations immediately. What’s even more shocking is that the takeover officer instructed on the spot that all employees would be transferred out of the original company. Not only were employees no longer allowed to communicate with the company, but they were also required to fully comply with government instructions, otherwise they would face criminal prosecution. At this point, Changhe completely lost control of these two strategic locations.
The 18-month transition period starts, Maersk and MSC take over
While completing the administrative takeover, the Panamanian government quickly made a gesture of maintaining operations. Max Flores, director of the Panama Maritime Administration, emphasized at a press conference that the takeover was to "ensure continued uninterrupted operations."
The government immediately set up an 18-month transition period and quickly finalized two temporary "takeovers." According to Panamanian media and Agence France-Presse, APM Terminals, a subsidiary of the global shipping giant Maersk of Denmark, will be responsible for the Port of Balboa on the Pacific side; while Terminal Investments (TiL), a subsidiary of Swiss Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), will take over the Port of Cristobal on the Atlantic side. Panama’s official data shows that up to 38% of the containers transshipped through Panama last year were processed through these two ports, which reflects their strategic position. In order to appease people's hearts, Panama's Labor Minister Jacqueline Muñoz specifically assured that approximately 1,200 employees at the two ports will not be laid off due to the takeover.
CK Hutchison angrily denounces "illegality": All legal means will be used to pursue the case
Faced with such a tough administrative takeover, CK Hutchison did not choose to remain silent. In a statement, the company fiercely pointed out that the Panamanian government's previous rulings, the presidential decree and the forced takeover were "illegal" and believed that this was a "forced confiscation" of the company's assets in Panama.
CMHR bitterly stated that the Panamanian government has continued to take actions against Panama Ports Company and its concession contract over the past year. Before this takeover, the government not only did not conduct any prior consultation, nor even gave formal notification, posing a serious risk to the operation, health and safety of the port. CK Hutchison stressed that the Panamanian government must bear responsibility for all damage and losses caused by its actions. Currently, CK Hutchison is urgently seeking legal advice and studying all possible ways, vowing to pursue the case to the end through all legal means, including resorting to domestic and international courts.
China makes a solemn statement: Firmly safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of enterprises
This commercial dispute, which occurred at an important node of the "One Belt, One Road" initiative, has also attracted great attention from China's top leaders. In response to the Panamanian government's insistence on revoking Changhe's operating rights and forcibly taking over the port, the Chinese government once again expressed its solemn position.
As early as early February, the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council published a signed article criticizing the ruling of the Supreme Court of Panama as "ignoring facts and breaching trust" and seriously damaging the legitimate rights and interests of Hong Kong companies. After the takeover, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian reiterated in response to reporters' questions that China has stated its position many times and will firmly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies. This statement was interpreted by the outside world as a strong endorsement of the subsequent international legal actions that CK Hutchison may take.
Public information shows that Hunan Expressway Traffic Police carried out a "random shooting" illegal reporting activity from February 2 to March 13, 2026. The content of the report was "driving or parking in the emergency lane under non-emergency circumstances." The reporter called the Hunan Provincial Highway Traffic Police Station to inquire about the matter. The staff said that the content of the "casual shooting" report is currently being processed and will actively verify the content of the report.
Emergency lane, how urgent can you stop?
Emergency lanes are mainly designed on both sides of urban ring roads, expressways and expressways, and are specially used for vehicles handling emergency matters such as engineering rescue, fire rescue, medical rescue or police performing emergency duties. There are only two types of so-called emergencies:
Emergency mission: For use by police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and engineering rescue vehicles when performing emergency missions.
Waiting for rescue: When a motor vehicle encounters a traffic accident or breaks down and needs to stop and wait for rescue, it can temporarily park in the emergency lane: the vehicle suddenly breaks down or has a traffic accident, resulting in the inability to drive normally; the vehicle's cargo is spilled or scattered, etc., and it needs to be stopped immediately; the driver or passenger suddenly suffers from a life-threatening illness.
These situations that you think are “urgent”
Cannot occupy the emergency lane
Too sleepy after a long drive and want to rest in the emergency lane;
Take the wrong road and want to park in the emergency lane to set up navigation;
If you get tired of driving, stop in the emergency lane and change drivers;
It's too congested, so use the emergency lane to overtake.
According to the "Measures for the Administration of Points for Road Traffic Safety Illegal Acts", if a motor vehicle is illegally occupying the emergency lane while driving on a highway or urban expressway, 6 points will be deducted at a time.
In the event of a vehicle accident or breakdown
How to park safely in the emergency lane?
Car pull over
After a traffic accident, if the vehicle can move, it should immediately turn on the hazard warning flashers and move into the emergency lane. When it is really impossible to move, be sure to keep turning on the hazard warning flashers and set up a warning sign 150 meters away from the direction of the oncoming vehicle:
1. Walk 150 meters behind the car. The white line dividing the lanes of the expressway is 6 meters long and 9 meters apart. The distance after 10 sets of markings is 150 meters.
2. Place the reflective surface of the sign on the ground facing the direction of oncoming traffic.
People evacuate
The emergency lane is not a safety island. After parking in the emergency lane, you should be alert to secondary accidents.
After the car pulls over, the people on the car should immediately evacuate to the right side of the highway guardrail or inside the central isolation guardrail to wait for rescue. They must look toward the direction of the oncoming vehicle from behind and pay attention to the dynamics of the oncoming vehicle to ensure their own safety.
Call the police
After taking necessary safety warning measures and "pull over and evacuate people", you should immediately call 12122 or 110 for help.

China News Service, Beijing, February 12 (Reporter Xie Yiguan) The nine-day Spring Festival holiday is approaching, and large gatherings everywhere are already crowded. Special snacks, intangible cultural heritage handicrafts, and New Year gift boxes are laid out, forming a vivid picture of New Year customs.
Coinciding with the "longest in history" Spring Festival holiday, nine departments including the Ministry of Commerce have recently jointly launched the 2026 "Tesco New Year" special Spring Festival event. A New Year consumption feast that is interconnected across the region and enjoyed by all the people is ready.
When consumption increases during the Spring Festival, the popularity of the festival will also be transformed into real wealth, injecting a strong stream of warmth into the first year of the "15th Five-Year Plan".

According to the plan, three major gift packages will be presented in this event to effectively stimulate people's willingness to consume and dare to consume.
The first step is to replace the old with the new. The first batch of 62.5 billion yuan in state subsidy funds across the country has been allocated to commerce departments in various regions, and various regions will be guided to increase subsidies during the Spring Festival holiday.
The second level is the prize invoice. The Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Finance, and the State Administration of Taxation have decided to launch pilot invoices with prizes in 50 cities. The scale of prizes during the nine-day Spring Festival holiday alone will exceed 1 billion.
The third level is financial support. The People's Bank of China and the State Administration of Financial Supervision will guide financial institutions, payment institutions and merchants to launch various forms of "Tesco New Year" preferential measures, covering consumption scenarios in multiple fields such as air tickets, hotels, food and beverages, and attraction tickets.
This set of policy packages not only lowers residents’ consumption threshold, but also injects confidence into market entities and unleashes full sincerity.
Booming consumption is also inseparable from scene innovation and experience upgrades.
This is the key to making people willing and happy to consume.
This special Spring Festival event closely follows the six dimensions of "good food, good housing, good travel, good travel, good shopping, and good fun" to promote the diversified integration of consumption scenarios, allowing festive moments to resonate with market vitality at a high frequency, adding impetus to high-quality economic development.

For example, activities such as “Travel with the Movie”, “Appreciate the Intangible Cultural Heritage with the Movie” and “Travel with the Intangible Cultural Heritage” skillfully transform cultural IP into perceivable and experienceable travel routes, achieving a two-way journey of cultural dissemination and consumption improvement.
Another example is that county areas hold special New Year goods fairs and organize local products to enter business districts, scenic spots, and communities. This not only broadens the sales channels of agricultural products, but also enriches urban consumer supply, truly realizing the positive interaction between urban and rural consumption, and activating the consumption potential of counties.
Cross-border integration attempts such as "Tesco New Year Ticket Stub Benefits" provide free scenic spot tickets for hotel stays, movie viewing credits for dining at restaurants, taxi coupons for watching performances, etc., which connect typical consumption scenes during the Spring Festival, greatly extending the consumption chain and enhancing the sense of consumption gain.
When consumption thrives, the economy thrives. In 2025, the total retail sales of consumer goods will exceed the 50 trillion yuan mark for the first time, and the final contribution rate of consumer spending to economic growth will reach 52%, an increase of 5 percentage points from the previous year.
When consumption booms during the Spring Festival, it will also activate a pool of spring water in the economy.
The deeper significance of this New Year consumption feast goes beyond the growth of transaction numbers. It also carries the multiple values of cultural inheritance, emotional connection, openness and win-win.
Through temple fairs, lantern festivals, intangible cultural heritage performances, etc. throughout urban and rural areas, the event allows traditional culture to be displayed, inherited and innovated in consumption scenarios; consumption scenarios such as reunion banquets, New Year’s Eve dinners, family outings, etc. build bridges for intergenerational communication, allowing family ties to continue and heat up during festival consumption.
At the same time, the event embraces the world with an open attitude. By improving the payment environment, releasing multilingual Spring Festival folk maps, increasing international flight capacity, and providing "civil aviation + cultural tourism" combined products for inbound tourism, it warmly welcomes friends from all over the world to "celebrate the Chinese New Year as the locals do", making the unique charm of the Chinese Spring Festival a shared experience for the world, which not only promotes consumption, but also further enhances the international influence of the Spring Festival.
At present, various places have also launched a variety of special Spring Festival activities based on local characteristics, and jointly played this New Year consumption concerto.
From the smiling faces at the market to the surging crowds in urban and rural areas across the country; from affordable consumption subsidies to innovative consumption scenarios, consumption will also be "booming" during this Spring Festival. (over)
Jiupai News noticed that a netizen nicknamed "Eighteen Marriage" also shared his reporting experience. He said that during the peak return period of the Spring Festival on the 21st, when he returned to Wuhan, his workplace, from Guangxi, he encountered congestion of about 6 kilometers on the Hunan section of the Quannan Expressway and the Xuguang Expressway.

"The navigation shows that it will take an hour to pass. Being stuck on the road is already anxious and irritating, but what makes people even more anxious is that many vehicles occupy the emergency lane unscrupulously, which also triggers more car owners queuing to follow suit." She said that seeing the emergency lane turning into a "fast lane", she felt that she had to do something, so she tried to search the Hunan Expressway Traffic Police app to report.
Ms. Zhang explained that the report requires each vehicle to upload two photos that clearly show the license plate, and the system will also automatically identify and locate the specific kilometers of the highway section. "The whole process was quite cumbersome. I spent about half an hour in the congested traffic and reported more than 20 illegal vehicles in total."
She said that the system currently reports that 3 vehicles have failed to report due to unclear features or insufficient clarity in the photos, and the rest are still being processed. Afterwards, she posted her reporting experience on the Internet and received a lot of praise, and some people said, "Why bother being so truthful?" In Ms. Zhang’s view, the emergency lane is the passage of life and should not become a shortcut for speculators.
"If the law is not stopped, it is the biggest punishment for law-abiding people. Even if I spend half an hour, even if only a few cars are punished in the end, as long as more people can hesitate before occupying the emergency lane next time, today's time will not be in vain. Rules need to be maintained together, and reporting channels like 'shoot at will' just give us ordinary people the opportunity to participate in traffic management." She said.

[2] During the return trip from the Spring Festival, temporary opening measures for emergency lanes will be implemented on many sections of Hunan Expressway
There are strict legal regulations on the use of highway emergency vehicles. The highway emergency lane is an emergency lane used by special vehicles such as police cars, ambulances, and rescue vehicles when performing emergency tasks. Public vehicles are not allowed to drive or park in the emergency lane except in emergencies.
Article 82 (4) of the "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates that motor vehicles driving on expressways shall not drive or park in the emergency lane except in emergencies.
Item (3) of Article 9 of the "Measures for the Administration of Points for Violations of Road Traffic Safety Violations" stipulates that driving a motor vehicle to illegally park on a highway or urban expressway will be demerited with 9 points; Article 10 (11) stipulates that driving a motor vehicle while illegally occupying the emergency lane on a highway or urban expressway will be deducted 6 points.
The police reminded that illegal occupation of the emergency lane can easily cause accidents. Some drivers park their cars in the emergency lane at will, which can easily cause vehicles going in the same direction to be unaware of the situation ahead, leading to accidents. It also creates a negative demonstration. Driving out of sequence and occupying the emergency lane will often produce a negative demonstration effect and undermine social morality. In addition, it will aggravate traffic congestion and delay emergency rescue.
Jiupai News reporter noted that the transportation department will also open some emergency lanes based on real-time traffic conditions and adopt flexible diversion measures. According to the Xiaoxiang Morning News, as of 16:30 on February 23, many highways in Hunan Province were experiencing slowdowns, and some road sections and toll stations were subject to temporary controls. In addition, in order to ease the peak traffic flow on the return trip during the Spring Festival and ensure the traffic efficiency of the main expressway, temporary opening measures for emergency lanes were implemented on multiple sections of the Hunan Expressway on the 23rd.
