Cover news reporter Wang Yuexin
Recently, 31-year-old entrepreneur Lin Wenqin drove Weilai Automobile, and unfortunately passed away after crashing on the highway to open the "automatic driving" function (NOP pilot state), and the topic related to "automatic driving" has become the focus of heated discussion among netizens.
On August 18, a joint statement on the perception of the NP/NOP system by WEIlai car owners was circulated on the Internet. The statement said that NIO owners are clearly aware of NIO's NP/NOP auxiliary driving system, not automatic driving system or unmanned driving system; clearly aware that there is no official commercial autopilot or unmanned driving system in the world; and NIO's introduction and publicity do not confuse and mislead the owners.
A joint statement issued by 500 OWNERS of NIO was circulated online
However, this joint statement of "500 people participating" has aroused a large number of opposition from self-proclaimed owners in the WEILAI APP, and they have created the topic of #Joint Statement Against Car Owners in the APP. On August 19, the cover news reporter saw in the Weilai APP that many users still commented on the topic. As of press time, more than 5,000 people have participated in the topic.
As of press time, more than 5,000 people in the WEILAI APP have opposed the statement
In the topic, most of the users who claimed to be the owners of Weilai said: oppose being represented, and everything is waiting for the investigation results of the accident. Users with the username "Great God Meng Fanjun" said: "I can't be represented without knowing it, and they don't have the right to represent me." Some users also said that when buying a car, they did not receive a detailed and professional introduction to the assisted driving system.
The reporter saw that the bottom of this joint statement showed that the first initiator of the statement was Lin Wei, the owner of the founding version of ES8, and the APP nicknamed Lin Wei lawyer. The reporter searched in the WEILAI APP and found that Lin Wei was also the first and second user trust directors of WEILAI.
At 10:30 p.m. on August 18, Lin Wei released a dynamic in response to the questions of other car owners. Lin Wei said that the statement was accompanied by signatory information and did not represent the owners who did not sign, let alone represent "all car owners". At the same time, it is a fact that the 500 people who voluntarily signed are the owners of Weilai, and they are all Weilai car owners. Below the dynamic, many users still expressed their objections: "It is wrong not to write a 'joint statement of 500 car owners'." "The title deliberately makes people understand that all car owners"...
In addition, the joint statement uses the WEILAI LOGO, so some users question whether the statement is officially authorized by NIO. In this regard, Weilai said in response to the media that the statement was issued by the owner of Weilai's car spontaneously and had no connection with the official.
For Lin Wenqin driving a Weilai car on the highway, turning on the automatic driving function (NOP pilot state) in a car accident and died, on August 18, the Putian Expressway Detachment of the Traffic Police Corps of the Fujian Provincial Public Security Department issued a police information circular saying that an investigation has been carried out for the accident, and the public security traffic police department will make a responsibility determination on the basis of the accident investigation.
