#Article first release challenge#"Help or not" has a new situation, through this traffic incident that occurred at the entrance of Hefei Road, Anhui Province, to be honest, I have a long knowledge, I admit that I did not know that there were such regulations before this incident.
Everyone knows the ins and outs of the incident, so let's briefly describe the process.
On December 10, in Hefei, Anhui Province, a 70-year-old man rode an electric car on the road and was heading towards the first road, and the speed was relatively fast.
At this time, the man drove an SUV to the intersection, and he was about to turn right, so he slowed down in advance to confirm.
However, between the lightning and flint, the old man fell down with a "snap", and he took the car with him.
The man was dumbfounded when he stepped on the brakes in the car, what should I do? Obviously there are still several meters away, and his fall has nothing to do with me.
Looking around, there don't seem to be pedestrians on the road, and the old man who fell down looks older, so can I help him?
After much thought, the man stopped the car and walked up to help the old man up. However, the next scene is familiar to everyone.
When the family of the old man arrived, not only did they not thank the owner of the SUV, but they also said that my father fell while approaching you while riding a bicycle, and you should be responsible, at least you have to pay for the medical expenses, right?
When Mr. heard this, he was confused, I was kind enough to do a good deed, but I didn't expect to be falsely accused. At this moment, he must have Wang Hao's sentence in his mind: You didn't hit it, why did you help it?
That's right, I didn't hit it, why should I help him! Why don't I kick the accelerator and drive away at that time?
But at that moment, the kindness of the gentleman's heart prevailed, and he still chose to help the elderly.
The man insisted that he was not responsible, so he chose to call the police, but when the police came, they ruled that he was secondarily responsible and had to bear part of the medical expenses, and the man was helpless and angry.
After the man returned home, he told his mother about the incident, and the man's mother, Ms. Chen, did not understand the traffic police's punishment when she heard it.
So Ms. Chen posted the relevant video on the Internet and asked netizens to make a rating.
Netizens almost overwhelmingly sided with Ms. Chen, and asked the local traffic police to give a specific basis for punishment.
Ms. Chan insisted that "we will not admit it".
The accident occurred on December 10, and it was not until December 14 that the Hefei police responded to the accident: "Traffic accidents do not necessarily require physical physical contact to occur, and the specific case needs to be determined by the traffic police according to the specific situation, but the specific situation is inconvenient to disclose." ”
The sentence "You don't have to have physical contact" made almost all netizens confused. And the sentence "the specific situation is inconvenient to disclose" completely angered netizens, and everyone went to the "Hefei Traffic Police" account to leave a message, asking for a reasonable explanation.
"What's wrong with the SUV?"
"It's my responsibility to drive out, and I'm going to Hefei to start a business!"
For a time, all the Internet was full of questioning voices about the division of responsibility for the accident.
"Local cars are all fake, not to mention foreign cars, stay away from Hefei, otherwise you have to worry about someone falling next to you when you go out, and you have to say that I am scared"
"I heard that an electric car can make a fortune in Hefei!"
For a while, all kinds of arguments flew all over the sky, because everyone had strong objections to such a penalty result.
There are roughly two aspects to sort out the doubts of netizens:
- If there is no contact between the two parties, why should the motor vehicle party be liable for compensation?
- The old man's side is obviously retrograde and speeding, why not take full responsibility?
Netizens' questions were overwhelming, but they still didn't wait for further explanations from the Hefei traffic police, but waited for the explanation of Guangzhou Traffic Radio.
Recently, Guangzhou Traffic Radio's "Give Me a Minute" program responded and explained this incident.
It turned out that this was a "non-contact traffic accident liability determination", to be honest, this kind of traffic accident is quite novel, I didn't even contact him, he fell down by himself, why should I be secondarily responsible?
But netizens still can't understand why SUVs mainly bear secondary liability?
To understand the Hefei accident, we must first carefully study the meaning of "traffic accident" and the relevant regulations on compensation after a road traffic accident.
According to Article 119, Paragraph 5 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, "traffic accident" refers to an incident in which a vehicle is injured or injured or damaged property due to fault or accident on the road. "Collision" is not a necessary condition for liability, and the fault of the parties can lead to a traffic accident if there is a causal relationship in the traffic accident.
In other words, a "traffic accident" is not necessarily a "contact" collision. Specific to the Hefei accident, it is a typical non-contact accident, the vehicle on the road due to an accident, resulting in an elderly person riding an electric car fell and injured.
Second, let's take a look at the division of responsibilities. Article 76 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that in the event of a traffic accident between a motor vehicle and a pedestrian or a non-motor vehicle, the motor vehicle shall also bear no more than 10% of the liability for compensation if it is not at fault.
Specific to the Hefei accident, throughout the accident, the owner of the SUV slowed down near the intersection to observe, there were no other violations, and there was indeed no fault in the accident. However, according to the provisions of the Road Traffic Safety Law, SUV owners are also liable for certain compensation.
Speaking of which, I don't know if everyone who is reading this article understands the penalty result of the Hefei traffic police?
However, there are still so many netizens on the Internet who are seeking explanations for SUV owners, and the reason behind this, I think the first thing is that the public is unfamiliar with relevant laws and regulations.
If you had already had the concept of "no contact accidents" in your mind, would you still launch such a big offensive to fight?
As the "Give Me a Minute" program of Broadcasting News said, in addition to imposing fines in accordance with the law, law enforcement departments should also strengthen the awareness of the majority of motor vehicle drivers on such accidents, and promote the society to reach a consensus on such accidents.
It wasn't until this time that some netizens understood, so some people sighed:
At this point, most people should be able to accept the penalty result, at least the SUV owner and his family have accepted the punishment of the Hefei traffic police and have no objections.
Although this accident has such an outcome, it does not mean that it can be done in the future. First of all, it should be clear that this old man was driving in the opposite direction and was very fast, so he fell because of the sudden braking and the lack of control due to his age.
If the old man did not go against the road and followed the normal route according to the regulations, the scene of falling might not have happened at all. Therefore, travel must be standardized, whether it is a motor vehicle or a non-motor vehicle, do not have a fluke mentality, accidents often occur in an instant.
A safe and smooth traffic environment requires every traffic participant to consciously maintain. Civilized travel and standardized traffic are the primary responsibilities to ensure safety.
