according to the video posted online by the driver, the woman involved took a car from a certain location to the hefei transportation qualification examination center. when she was about to reach her destination, she suddenly showed her id in the back seat and asked the driver to check his "two certificates", but the driver refused because she was in casual clothes and was the only one enforcing the law. after that, the woman got off the car and his online car-hailing account was later banned by the platform.

the driver also posted on the internet that he actually had all the legal documents to operate an online ride-hailing car, but he did not cooperate because he felt that the other party's law enforcement was illegal.

the driver pointed out on the internet that the woman was a staff member of the transportation management office of the hefei municipal transportation bureau. however, a reporter from xiaoxiang morning news found out that the local law enforcement agency in hefei against online ride-hailing vehicles is the hefei municipal transportation comprehensive administrative law enforcement detachment, a public institution under the hefei municipal transportation bureau.
