China has been on a roll lately breaking one record after the other but, this time, it’s not for a good reason.

You see, local police in China’s Hebei Province stumbled upon a small passenger van that was legally designed to transfer up to eight people. The problem is this one was carrying –wait for it- 66 people, yes you read correctly, sixty-six passengers including 64 youngsters aged four to five years old and two adults!

According to reports, the driver had stripped the seats from the van and replaced them with five rows of wooden benches! Police arrested the man and transferred the children in/to safety.

The Chinese media said that the driver was, “punished according to related laws and regulations,” without elaborating further.
