Re: Chinese Daily Life in Photos & News!
For the motorcycle seized, I can totally understand since a lot of rider have driven on opposite side, not license and no license plate. <----- this happen a lot in city, but the odd thing is it happens less in smaller cities and town. As for electric bicycle even normal ones different cities have different law. Some require you to register some don't.
I think the federal government should step in and unified the law for vehicle. You can't have different law on the road for different cities when city. For eg. Guandong ban motorcycle, because people are riding on opposite direction and the officials don't fine the offender enough. This have caused huge traffic jam in the city and people just "motorized" their bicycle. Some cities almost wanted to ban bicycle, but overturned when it was unconstiutional.

In the US each and every state, city, town and counties has different traffic laws. Granted they are basically the same but there are many variances...And they are based on Federal law. Some how or another it works.

20 years ago if you had told anybody the Chinese locals will be in Santa outfits or Christmas trees and reindeer all over Beijing's malls and sidewalks and other cities in the near future they've put you in an insane asylum.
Granted Christmas there is "celebrated" more for commercial reasons than religious the cultural change is still absolutely phenomenal.

You know, that Jesus in the first picture... black hair? asian jesus?
Recently, I saw a German little mini-news on Christmas in Beijing (China rather). Needless to say I don't speak German but I got the idea of some of what they were talking about from bits of 'english like' terms and pictures (ex. no jesus toys or decorations being sold, mainly santa - commercial rather than religious holiday emphasis as already mentioned before by someone). I also remember seeing something on TV before that showed that Harbin(?) 'ice city' ... unless there is more than one in China and I am confusing them. Really impressive in the day and then they switched to the light-up version at night at the end of the show was really surprising.

Think of it this way: it is like those people-impersonators (think the Elvises in USA, Maos in China, etc.) accept these are of fictional characters and they are by fans that may or may not look like them. Some people go far out and really impress me (modified cars, bikes, etc. along with costumes) while others are just too laughable (or disturbing at worst). ie. That semi-robot-like guy has nice shoes though... (his other areas are lacking).
