According to netizens, a serious traffic accident occurred in Fujian a few days ago. A blue modern Feifesta was seriously damaged after collision, with twisted doors, falling windows and falling parts. The scene was a mess.

According to netizens, the accident occurred at 9:00 a.m. on July 23, in the direction of Jingxi Bridge on Fuzhou Third Ring Road, a blue modern car crashed into the roadside guardrail, causing serious damage to the vehicle.

According to netizens, a woman was driving the vehicle, along with an adult and two children. After the traffic accident, one of the children was fine, while the other younger child was suspected of being unconscious, so the driver tried to wake up the child while making a rescue call while confirming that there was no harm.

After the traffic police arrived at the scene, the traffic on the scene was controlled and the wounded were sent to hospital for treatment. It is understood that the injured in the accident were then sent to Cangshan Hospital District of Fuzhou 900 Hospital. Except for the female passengers in the vehicle, there was no obvious bruise. The driver and two children were sent to the provincial hospital for further treatment. At present, there is no life-threatening situation.

As for the cause of the accident, although the traffic police did not report it, it can be speculated from the reported road surface and vehicle accident situation that the driver may hit the road pier on the way, resulting in vehicle destruction.

From the cement guardrail beside the accident vehicle, there are obvious impact marks, half of the reflective iron sheet has been lifted, it is full of scratches, and the cement pier has also been hit with a crack.

It can be seen from the damage condition of the vehicle that the left front side of the accident vehicle is seriously deformed, and the door is twisted, the window falls off and the front hood is deformed, etc. At the same time, the scattered parts and the popped airbag can be judged that the vehicle is close to scrapping.

Although the traffic accident caused people to feel frightened, what made netizens even more frightened was the safety of modern Festa in the event of an accident. Because the collision situation encountered by Festa this time is almost the same as that of Festa in the previous research and development test. Also in the case of "25% offset collision", the vehicles appear A pillar bending, serious collapse of the front and serious deformation of the door, etc., which pose a certain threat to the driver.

Also because of this, Hyundai Festa received only a number of M (general) ratings in the China Insurance Research Institute, of which 25% of the offset collisions occurred at 64km/h. The evaluation results of the China Insurance Research Institute were also M (general). Due to the intrusion of the upper part of the passenger compartment, the legs and feet of the dummy were injured, the occupant leaned forward excessively, and the seat instability was the main point of loss. From this, we can guess that there may be irrationality in the structural strength of vehicles.

In response to the performance of Festa in 25% offset collision, some insiders believe that: "The forward longitudinal beam and the water tank frame beam did not have enough drag support and backward collapse superimposed energy absorption deformation, but occurred to the middle of the car body sliding deflection bending, the impact body bypass the front main deformation buffer protection zone directly rushed to the tire and A-pillar front, directly resulting in leg space is squeezed inward collapse, AB pillar middle upper side beam bending and compression cab upper body space, front door deformation stuck." The front bar is short and weak, and the lateral support strength is weak."

It has to be said that Beijing Hyundai Festa, as a Chinese special model, has not been ideal in the transition from C-NCAP to C-IASI. In C-NCAP, Festa only scored four stars, with a comprehensive score rate of 72.3%, which is even worse under C-IASI. The same is true of the results of real-life collisions, so that the car can't help but sigh in terms of safety. Of course, for this accident, the specific speed encountered will also wait for official notification.
