On August 15, a No. 236 bus in Harbin City slipped into the terminal station and collided with the rear of the front bus, killing a worker who was brushing the car on the spot. According to insiders, the driver returned to the terminal station when the operation was improper, only used electronic brakes, did not pull the handbrake brake, resulting in the death of the 72-year-old brush worker. At present, bus drivers have been taken compulsory measures by the police.

At about 8:00 a.m. on August 15, at the Sunshine Home Bus Station in Nangang District, Harbin City, the No. 236 bus that had just arrived at the station slipped away and killed the brush workers on the spot. From the video taken by the driving recorder, it can be seen that after the bus arrived at the station, the brushing worker began to clean up the body of a bus in front of him, but unexpectedly, the rear 236 bus that had just stopped slid and slid, the brush worker was squeezed between the two buses, and the front windshield of the rear bus was broken. The video in the rear bus shows that after the bus arrives at the station, the driver stops and prepares to get off, just after leaving the seat, he finds that the vehicle is slipping, and the driver sits back in the seat, but it is too late, and the bus has collided with the bus in front.

On August 16, according to insiders of the company to which the 236 bus belongs, the driver returned to the terminal station when the operation was improper, only used electronic brakes, did not pull the hand brake, resulting in the death of the 72-year-old brush worker, "The driver is an old driver with many years of driving experience, about 50 years old, the driver has been taken compulsory measures by the police." ”

After the relevant videos were uploaded to the Internet, netizens regretted the unfortunate death of the 72-year-old brush worker, "72 years old should enjoy his old age in peace, tease his children and grandchildren, and come out to work and encounter such a disaster, too pitiful." Some netizens were indignant about the tragedy caused by the driver getting out of the car without pulling the handbrake, "This is a typical safety accident caused by not following the safety operation process, and a momentary negligence destroyed two families." ”

On August 17, Jimu News reporter contacted a car maintenance station near the bus stop of the incident, and the staff said that they had indeed heard about the brush master being hit and killed, and that there were many police cars on the day of the incident, and the victim lived in a nearby community.

Jimu News reporters called the local police station several times, and the staff replied that the matter was under the jurisdiction of the traffic police. Subsequently, the reporter called the local traffic police publicity department, and the phone was unanswered.

Lawyer Ding Kai of Liaoning Kaiye Law Firm believes that the driver's improper operation is the cause of the accident, and the driver has been suspected of the crime of major liability accident provided for in article 134 of the Criminal Law, which is a crime of negligence, that is, violating the relevant safety management regulations in production and operation, causing major casualties or causing other serious consequences. Both this crime and the crime of traffic accident are crimes of negligence, but the occurrence of this accident is not caused by driving a car on a public transportation road, but is caused by not pulling a handbrake after stopping, so it is not a suspected traffic accident crime, but should be attributed to the crime of suspected major liability accident.

Chai Xin, a lawyer at Beijing Dacheng (Wuhan) Law Firm, said that because the victim was 72 years old and had reached the statutory retirement age, his relationship with the employer was not an employment relationship, but should be attributed to the employment relationship, because he died in an accident at work, and his close relatives could claim compensation from the bus company in accordance with article 1192 of the Civil Code.
