A woman motorist, surnamed Zhou, has been detained after driving her car for 20 kilometers in the wrong direction on an expressway in Yangxin on Aug 21. Zhou, 46, has been charged with dangerous driving. Police received reports about a car driving against the traffic at 11 pm. After finding the vehicle, they forced Zhou to stop and led her to safety. Zhou, who received a driver's license last year, said she had missed her exit and simply made a U-turn, driving back in one of the main lanes.
