On September 11th， it was reported that on the evening of September 9th， around 9 PM， over a dozen aunts dressed in brightly colored attire gathered in the middle of the main road， Xianfu Street， in Yantai Changdao， to dance， causing traffic disruptions.
Ms. Zhang， an eyewitness， stated that she was driving her colleague home that evening and saw the elegantly made-up aunts dancing in the middle of the road. She had to wait for a considerable time before being able to bypass them， leading to an inconvenience.
A staff member from the local traffic police detachment confirmed that the incident has been verified and that relevant organizers are being interviewed.
This incident sparked widespread discussion among netizens. Many pointed out that gatherings of three or more people could be considered an organization， and occupying public roads in the middle of the street constitutes a hazard to public safety. The question arose regarding how such “criminal groups” that endanger public safety should be dealt with.
Some netizens expressed frustration， commenting on what they perceived as a lack of public etiquette among some elderly individuals. This has led to broader questions about societal behavior and the responsibilities of different age groups in public spaces.
