Foreigner Caught Driving Illegal Cab in Zhuhai, Tries to Use Passport to Get Out of It, Fails.
Apr 23, 2014 By eChinacities.com

On April 18, the Zhuhai City Police department pulled over a silver Corrolla with Zhuhai license plates, as they suspected it was a black cab. After the driver and passenger had gotten out of the car they separated them for questioning.

After investigation they discovered that the driver, Chen, is Malaysian and that day he was driving his Chinese wife’s car with a passenger that he didn’t know. The passenger admitted that they had paid 10 RMB to drive from Lianhua Rd intersection to Summer Bay.

The 30 something driver spoke Cantonese and on seeing the law enforcement officers pulled out his passport, saying that he was entitled to ‘protection’. Unfortunately this had no effect whatsoever on the police officers, who revoked his license immediately.

He must have thought he was in America. Only in The US illegals are afforded protection.

You've obviously been living out of the USA for too long. Do you how how many illegal latino immigrants have been deported during the Obama administration? More than 2 million now. http://www.voanews.com/content/us-deports-2-million-illegal-immigrants-during-obamas-tenure/1899942.html A hell of a lot of them (from what I've read) were ones who were indicted by the police for minor offences (driving ones, etc), found to be undocumented/illegal and eventually deported.
