context_page_description: Law enforcement in China consists of an extensive public security system and a variety of enforcement procedures used to maintain order in the country. Along with the courts and procuratorates, the country's judicial and public security agencies include the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of State Security, with their descending hierarchy of departments, bureaus, subbureaus, and stations
  Hong Kong and Macau have separate law enforcement agencies and work together with mainland agencies to deal with crime between them.
context_section_description: Police cars in the mainland are white with a dark blue swoosh painted on the side such as BYD e6. China does not have a uniform fleet buying program so local departments typically buy from a variety of local dealerships. Volkswagen Santanas and Volkswagen Passats are the most common but other makes and models are present as well.
  Hong Kong Police vehicles have been influenced by British and Chinese schemes and still today retain them. Police in Macau use generic European designs patterns.
