CCTV News:On the evening of October 17, at 22:09, a traffic accident occurred in Tongzhou District, Beijing. A taxi was squashed by a large truck pulling stones, and the taxi driver died on the spot.
A total of four cars appeared one after another, and only the taxi driver followed the rules, but the result was…
The first big truck ran through a red light (at least a yellow light), and the taxi driver stopped.
The second car, real road parallel.
The third big truck that caused the accident, let alone, seemed to want to run a red light, and had no intention of braking at all. It was shaken by the car that was actually parallel and rolled over.
In the end, the only taxi driver who did not violate the traffic rules died tragically, and the scene was very tragic.
It is understood that the taxi driver who was tragically killed was 39 years old this year. According to age, it is the old and the young. He is the pillar of a family, and a family is destroyed like this!
Similar to this incident, on October 12, a serious traffic accident also occurred in Wangsiying, Beijing.
The reason was that a truck forcibly drove into the main road at the Wangsiying exit of Beijing-Harbin Expressway, causing a three-car collision on the main road. After the incident, the truck driver actually drove away from the scene.
The accident ultimately resulted in one death and one injury, and the truck driver who left the scene after the accident did not arrive at the traffic team for questioning until the next morning.
It is reported that the truck driver returned home after being questioned and making a statement. The traffic control department will conduct further investigation and evidence collection on the matter. Regarding the driver himself, further processing can only be done after the accident responsibility is determined.
The truck driver had gone home, but some drivers would never return home…
Legal experts discuss accident liability determination
In both cases, the driver who obeyed the rules died tragically. So, should the driver who caused the accident due to illegal driving bear legal responsibility? In this regard, the reporter interviewed relevant legal personnel.
Whether to take responsibility depends on the determination of responsibility for the accident
The lawyer believes that based on the preliminary judgment of the monitoring footage, the sudden lane change of the car violates traffic laws, which is an important cause of this major traffic accident.
However, whether the car driver should bear criminal responsibility depends mainly on the traffic control department’s determination of responsibility for the traffic accident and the reason for the car’s sudden lane change.
If the "Traffic Accident Liability Statement" issued by the traffic control department after the investigation concludes that the driver of the car bears full or main responsibility for the accident, the driver’s behavior is suspected of a traffic accident and needs to bear corresponding criminal liability. The family members of the taxi driver can file a criminal incidental civil compensation against him.
However, from the picture, it is unlikely that the driver of the car will be found to bear the main responsibility for the accident. If the driver of the car is found to bear secondary responsibility, the family of the taxi driver also has the right to file a separate civil lawsuit for compensation.
How do you feel about "the tragic death of the only rule-abiding taxi driver among the four cars"?
The lawyer believes that in this major accident, the misfortune of the taxi driver is truly deplorable, and it also makes us realize the serious harm of driving in violation of traffic management laws.
Although all three drivers who did not obey traffic laws were unharmed in this accident, we should be soberly aware that this does not mean that illegal driving can escape the consequences of the accident, because in a large number of traffic accidents, illegal driving vehicles and drivers often suffer personal and property losses in the accident.
On the whole, only when every driver can drive strictly in accordance with traffic rules can he avoid more traffic accidents and protect the personal safety of himself and others. Similar tragic accidents occur frequently, and every driver should keep in mind that "traffic laws are in his heart, and traffic safety is in his hands" to create a safe road travel order.
