A video about Yu Qi's illegal parking went viral on the Internet, causing widespread concern.
The video shows Yu Qi driving a diplomatic vehicle to park in a no-parking area in front of the mall and arguing with citizens who persuaded her to accommodate other vehicles, justifiably claiming that she has diplomatic immunity.
The incident reflected the abuse of privilege by some and triggered a public re-examination of diplomatic immunity.
After investigation, Yu Qi has been punished by the police, but the comment area continues to criticize her.
Yu Qi's illegal parking sparked public condemnation
Yu Qi is the spouse of a diplomat, and the vehicle she drives is a diplomatic vehicle. However, when the area where parking was clearly marked at the entrance of the mall, Yu Qi still parked the car.
The video shows that a citizen stepped forward to persuade him, but Yu Qi not only did not leave, but also emphasized that he had diplomatic immunity and could park at will.
The clip went viral online and sparked a public outcry. Regardless of status, you should abide by basic laws and regulations, and you should not use your status as a blackmail or abuse of privileges.
Misunderstandings and controversies over diplomatic immunity
In this case, "diplomatic immunity" became a point of contention. Diplomatic immunity is not absolute, and its primary function is to exempt foreign diplomats from the obligation to comply with certain local laws in a given context, and cannot be interpreted as doing as they please.
The place where Yu Qi parked his car was clearly marked with a ban on parking, and his behavior was a serious violation of public morality and did not fall within the scope of diplomatic immunity. Such a misunderstanding and abuse of diplomatic immunity will inevitably lead to condemnation from public opinion.
The police intervened to deal with Yu Qi's violations
As the incident continued to ferment, the relevant departments finally intervened. Beijing police said that no matter who they are, they should obey the traffic rules and not violate the law under any pretext.
After investigation, Yu Qi has been fined 200 yuan by the police. Yu Qi's husband was also punished for walking his dog without a leash. Although the amount is not significant, it makes it clear that diplomatic immunity cannot be used as a justification for violating the law.
The comment area continued to bombard Yu Qi and demanded a thorough investigation of the incident
The police's punishment did not quell public doubts. Many voices in the comment section continued to condemn Yu Qi, questioning that she was only fined lightly this time, and was not really severely punished.
The true identity of her husband was questioned and his background was further investigated. There are also views that it is not enough to punish Yu Qi alone, and the relevant departments should also come forward to explain and seriously reflect on how to regulate the management and use of diplomatic vehicles.
The incident reflects the continuing high level of abuse of privileges
On the mainland, unfair privileges are not uncommon. Similar cases of abusing public buses and eating and drinking with public funds have occurred from time to time, breeding many public resentments.
The Yu Qi incident once again reflects the seriousness of the problem. Diplomatic immunity does not mean that you can do whatever you want, still less can it be a shield against the law. Only by continuing to strengthen supervision can we effectively curb such behavior.
Improve relevant laws and regulations to plug loopholes
The Yu Qi incident also exposed the loopholes that still exist in the current regulations. The scope of application of diplomatic immunity needs to be further clarified to avoid ambiguity.
At the same time, the use of diplomatic vehicles also needs to be regulated in detail to ensure that they are used for official business and not for private use. Only by continuously improving regulations and plugging loopholes can similar cases be prevented at the source.
The Yu Qi incident reflects the abuse of privileges and misunderstanding of laws and regulations, and also exposes the shortcomings of the current system. We need to start by enriching laws and regulations and strengthening supervision to further maintain a fair and just social environment.
