A female motorist from South China's Hainan Province recently felt a little embarrassed after she was fined and punished by traffic police for blocking her car's back license plate with a pair of panties.   

Some citizens in Haikou called traffic police after they were astonished to find a pair of light pink panties covering the top of a white car's rear plate, Knews reported.    

The driver, surnamed Wang, was quickly stopped by traffic police. Burying her face in her hands, she explained that her action was just a prank. 

The woman was fined 100 yuan ($14.56), received 12/12 penalty points, and also had her driving license temporarily confiscated after police confirmed that the woman had not committed any other violations, said a police officer in a video posted by Knews. 

The woman, told police that she felt  embarrassed and would never do such a stupid thing again, Knews reported.

Some netizens criticized the woman's action as "brainless," and said it deserved a harsher punishment, saying that it was also a disrespectful and irresponsible act to other drivers. 

"Why did she only cover up the back plate of her car?" commented a Net user. 

"Probably because she has no spare panties," said another.
