AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)04/03 Report--

Netizens revealed that a senior executive of Geely Automobile was suspected of speeding. On April 3, Wang Bo of Geely Automobile posted a test video on his personal micro blog. The vehicle was driving on ordinary roads but the speed was as high as 106km/h. Wang Bo also said,"Geely Binyue, Chinese steel cannon!"

It is understood that Wang Bo holds the post of marketing management director in Geely Automobile Sales Company. Judging from the test video it released, it was intended to demonstrate the vehicle's acceleration capabilities. On ordinary roads, the vehicle was driven vigorously and the engine speed had soared to 4000rpm, at which time the meter indicated a speed of 106km/h. At the same time, the vehicle overspeed alarm has sounded several times and reminded drivers that the speed limit on this section is 70km/h.

If the speed warning of this Geely is safe and reliable and there are no errors, the driver in the video does have serious speeding behavior. From the perspective of the surrounding environment, there are both traffic signal facilities of red street lamps and road direction sign facilities. Such roads are generally not allowed to drive at high speed.

In addition, there are netizens remind, look at the background seems to be factory trial run. Even if it is a factory test of Geely Automobile, the speeding behavior in the above video should not occur, because this section is not a closed test road.

In the factory section, a large number of logistics vehicles, trailer vehicles, trucks, forklifts travel back and forth, as well as a large number of employees shuttle walking, there is no standard traffic rules constraints, more likely to lead to accidents, so manufacturers generally set relatively low vehicle speed on the factory section, and there are strict regulations on vehicle parking, so as to ensure the safety of vehicles and employees in the factory.

If you can drive a car at 100km/h casually, it is a great safety threat to other vehicles, pedestrians or employees. Moreover, company executives should establish correct driving concepts, and it is not advisable to take the lead in speeding. Netizens said that if it is a factory section, it can be seen that the internal management is quite chaotic.

From the resume of Geely Automobile Wang Bo, it is the representative figure of Geely marketing person. Wang Bo joined Geely Holding Group in 2002 and successively held the positions of Section Chief, Sales Department Minister, Planning Department Minister, Promotion Department Minister, Assistant General Manager of Business Department, etc.; since March 2016, he has served as Director of Sales Promotion Department, mainly responsible for sales planning, dealer promotion and terminal marketing activity management; now his position is Director of Marketing Management of Geely Automobile.

Speeding to demonstrate the acceleration of a branded vehicle is already a violation and should be condemned. At present, Geely Automobile has not responded to this news.
