A driver was pulled over for being suspected of covering his license plate with a piece of paper, which would allow him to avoid traffic cameras. However, the same traffic cameras confirmed that the man just happened to drive into a piece of paper that was blown in by the wind, according to Chinese online news outlet Pear Videos.

The man was driving his car down the highway of Wuwei City in Gansu Province, China on June 9 when police stopped him at a check-point. They noticed that a piece of white paper covered most of the license plate.
