The value of life is non-debatable, and every life deserves to be cherished and cared for. When tragedy strikes, we should uphold the spirit of humanitarianism, care for life, and be tolerant of others. Recently, a fishing boat collision accident occurred in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, resulting in the death of three fishermen, which is deplorable. After the fact, there are different opinions on the determination and handling of responsibility, and we should be more rational and patient. I believe that with the joint efforts of all walks of life, the truth will eventually come out, and those lives that have passed away will eventually find solace in heaven.
1. The fishing boat was tragically rammed, three people were killed, and the owner of the boat was injured
A wooden fishing boat in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, was struck and destroyed by a large iron vessel while operating at sea, and three of the four people on the fishing boat were killed and one injured before being rescued. This large iron boat is larger, more than 20 meters long, while the fishing vessel has 114 meters long, 2It is 4 meters wide and has a huge difference in size. On the night of the incident, the fishing boat was fishing in the dark sea without moonlight, and the visibility was not good. The large iron boat turned off its lights and collided with the fishing boat at high speed, directly knocking the wooden fishing boat in half and capsizing. The iron boat did not stop at the scene for rescue, but quickly sailed away after the incident.
Four fishermen on the fishing boat, including the boatman and three boatmen, were severely damaged. The three boatmen were seriously injured and soon died of their injuries, and an autopsy revealed obvious impact injuries on their bodies. Zhang, the owner of the boat, also suffered head and lung injuries and was rescued after a night of drifting and was treated in the hospital.
2. The shipowner was required to pay 2.7 million yuan to the family of the deceased in advance
Twenty days after the accident, Shenzhen Hai** is still investigating the cause of the accident. It is understood that the large iron boat that hit the fishing boat has been seized by the relevant departments for investigation, but the responsibility for the accident has not yet been determined. At the same time, Zhang received a notice from **, asking him to borrow 2.72 million yuan from ** on behalf of the owner of the fishing boat to pay compensation to the families of the three deceased in advance. According to **, this is a "strict and fast" treatment to calm down the incident.
Zhang said that he could not understand and accept this. He believes that he, as one of the injured parties, has also suffered heavy injuries and deserves to be compensated accordingly. In addition, the perpetrators have not yet determined that holding the victim accountable for compensation seems to be putting the cart before the horse. Some legal experts have also said that it is too early to deal with the parties without clarifying the responsibility for the incident.
3. Ship owners and netizens questioned the compensation arrangement
After being asked to borrow money in advance, Zhang felt that he had become the "scapegoat" for this incident. He believes that this huge amount of compensation should have been borne by the party responsible for the crime, but he, as a victim, was asked to bear it alone, which is not just and reasonable.
This incident also sparked heated discussions among netizens. Some netizens criticized the relevant departments for being too hasty and demanding compensation from the injured party without a full investigation, which is difficult to convince the public. Some netizens also believe that the victim's family is in a special situation and needs to be cared for in a timely manner, and this kind of advance compensation is also out of goodwill. However, most netizens still tend to believe that the party responsible should be held responsible.
Some netizens pointed out that this accident highlights the danger of small and medium-sized fishing boats operating at sea, and it is necessary to improve management to protect the safety of fishermen's lives and property.
Fourth, experts call for a rational view and pay attention to the follow-up progress of the incident
In response to this incident, well-known legal experts called on the public to maintain a rational and tolerant attitude. He said that life is priceless, and the emotions of family members should also be taken care of. However, it is also important to determine the responsibility for the accident, which requires professional accident investigation and evidence collection.
In the absence of clarity of responsibility, the interim emergency measures taken against the parties do not represent a final conclusion. This requires cooperation with follow-up investigation and verification, and through legal procedures and serious investigation by relevant departments, to finally find out the truth.
Therefore, both ship owners and the public should pay attention to the follow-up progress, and believe that with the concerted efforts of all parties, this process will be fair and open. We deeply mourn the loss of life, and hope that we can build on this to promote the safety of maritime operations and prevent similar tragedies from happening again.
5. Suggestions and solutions
In response to the "Yu 3301" collision accident, the author suggests:
1) Strengthen the supervision of ships operating at sea, and strictly require necessary safety measures such as night navigation to prevent collision accidents.
2) Establish and improve the accident investigation and responsibility determination mechanism, summarize cases through scientific evidence collection, and clarify the responsible party.
3) Pay attention to the value of life and protect the rights and interests of the victim group, but also need to look at it rationally to prevent the commercialization of the value of life.
4) Strengthen the construction of law enforcement and supervision teams, improve the professional level, and establish a fair and honest image.
5) Strengthen the best guidance, look at the practices of all parties rationally, and prevent the intensification of contradictions.
Overall, this incident highlights the safety hazards of small and medium-sized fishing boats, and also tests the wisdom of judicial and public decision-making. Let us uphold the spirit of humanitarianism, care for life, look at it rationally, and trust professionalism and the rule of law, so as to finally find the truth and a way out of this matter.
