The 2011 Shanghai Truckers strike started in the Waigaoqiao zone of Pudong in Shanghai, China, on the morning of April 20, 2011, and continued for two days.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

The work stoppage was preceded by a gathering in Songjiang District on April 13 to protest the alleged beating of a pedestrian by state officials. There were further strikes called in other port cities. Reports that three truckers were killed were denied by state controlled media.
