A few days ago, Hefei suffered an unbelievable traffic accident: an elderly man in his late teens was riding a motorcycle in the wrong direction and passed by a black SUV, and suddenly fell to the ground. With a kind heart, the black car owner got out of the car and went to help the old man, but was unexpectedly framed by the old man's children as the perpetrator and asked for medical expenses. What's even more infuriating is that the traffic police bureau actually determined that the black car owner bears secondary responsibility, which caused strong dissatisfaction among netizens. No contact accident no collision is not no responsibility
This incident reminds me of a case that caused a sensation across the country more than ten years ago, which was also a story between the old man and the car owner, but the ending at that time was even more absurd. That was in 2006, when China was not as developed as it is today, and 50,000 yuan was a lot for ordinary people. At that time, a judge named Wang Hao said something ridiculous when he was trying a traffic accident case: "If you don't hit this man, why do you have to support him?"”
It turned out that the plaintiff in this case was an old man, and the defendant was the owner of the car, and the old man claimed that he was hit by the car owner and claimed 50,000 yuan from the car owner. The owner argued that there was no collision with the old man, and only saw the old man get out of the car to help him after he fell. As a result, the judge believed that the car owner's behavior was an admission of his fault, and sentenced the car owner to compensate the old man 50,000 yuan.
At the time, the case received widespread public attention, and many people thought that the judge's ruling was too absurd, ignoring the evidence and dampening kindness. Some people even joked that when they see the old man fall in the future, they must bypass it, otherwise they will lose money.
I do not believe that this kind of tragedy will be repeated in today's society, after all, China's legal system and social atmosphere have made great progress. However, the Hefei incident was beyond my expectations, and as a result, such absurdity is still being staged.
There is no connection between the fact that the old man is clearly observing the old man driving in the wrong direction at the turn and the black car owner turning right in the ordinary lane.
Older people can fall on their own because they are frightened or out of balance. When the black car owner saw it, he immediately got out of the car and helped the old man to show his concern and apology. However, the old man's children took the opportunity to extort the black car owner to deliberately kill his father and claim the father's hospitalization and operation expenses. The owner of the black car felt aggrieved and called the police.
Originally, this was a very simple case, and you only need to look at the surveillance video to judge responsibility. However, the traffic police department accidentally determined that the black car owner was also responsible and made him secondarily responsible. The traffic police department reasoned that pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles are vulnerable groups under the provisions of the Road Traffic Safety Law, so the owner of the vehicle is secondarily liable. This ruling made it difficult for black car owners and netizens to accept, believing that the traffic police bureau shielded the elders and mishandled the traffic accident.
On the Internet, many people complained about the black car owners and left messages to give support and sympathy.
Some see this as an unfair treatment and humanitarian betrayal of well-wishers;
Some believe that it distorts traffic laws and insults judicial fairness;
There is a view that it maliciously harms social morality and harms good people.
Some people also joke that as long as it is a motorcycle in Hefei, it can go against the road at will, fall at will, extort at will, and make profits at will. Some people also said worriedly that if this kind of thing continues, who will dare to do good deeds and who will dare to reach out in the future?
As a blogger, I was also shocked and indignant by this incident.
The author believes that the traffic police bureau's ruling is seriously wrong, which is neither groundless nor justified. The old man apparently fell on his own in violation of traffic rules, and it had nothing to do with the black car owner. The owner of the black car out of kindness went to help the old and the young, but was framed and became the perpetrator, how wronged!The traffic police bureau must return the innocence of the black car owner according to the truth, and cannot let him bear the responsibility that he should not bear. Only in this way can the impartiality of the traffic law be reflected, the authority of the judiciary can be maintained, and the interests of the people can be protected.
At the same time, the author also calls on all sectors of society, especially the elderly and their children, to abide by traffic rules, respect other rights, not occupy a vulnerable position, and not to deceive and extort. This behavior is both a violation of the law and a blasphemy of morality. It is necessary to jointly create a safe and harmonious traffic environment, so that everyone can travel safely, everyone can respect each other, and everyone can feel goodwill and warmth.
Finally, I hope that the Hefei "no contact collision" incident can be properly resolved, the black car owners can be dealt with fairly, and the old people and their children can also recognize their faults, so that the traffic police bureau will correct their ruling, and netizens will see a fair ending. I also hope that this kind of thing will not happen again and that our society will become more civilized and progressive.
