AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/12 Report--

According to the latest judgment of the people's Court of Lucheng District, Wenzhou City, due to improper operation of the Wenzhou Tesla car owner, several parked vehicles and sidewalk guardrail and other facilities were collided after the vehicle accelerated out of control, requiring the car owner to apologize to Tesla and compensate Tesla for 50, 000 yuan on the top of his account on Douyin platform for 90 days.

In response to the judgment, Mr. Chen said in response to the "urgent call" that he had no choice but to admit it in order to divide the liability and complete the insurance claim as soon as possible. Mr. Chen said, "I am a victim. Tesla did not compensate me for a penny. Instead, he has been sued by Tesla. He has not yet got the verdict and will appeal when he gets it."

In May this year, Mr. Chen made such remarks. At that time, the Wenzhou Society of Automotive Engineering tested and identified Mr. Chen's Tesla and issued a corresponding test report. the investigation results showed that the car owner mistakenly stepped on the pedal and mistook the accelerator for the brake to cause the accident.

As for the accident caused by stepping on the pedal by mistake, Mr. Chen responded: "it was to settle compensation for neighbors and was forced to have no choice but to ask the appraisal agency to write so." Mr. Chen said that under the persuasion of his friends, in order to settle the claim, he was finally forced to admit that he mistakenly stepped on the accelerator and caused the accident. As a result of this accident, he lost his ability to work, and the car owners who were hit by vehicles in the community often came to the door to collect debts, and they had to settle the compensation for NT $400,000 to NT $500,000, and they had no way to repay it. In order to settle the claim, the neighbor finally went to the appraisal agency to set the appraisal result as stepping on the wrong accelerator.

However, Mr. Chen's response has also aroused questions from netizens. In order to meet the requirements of settling claims, does it involve fraudulent insurance to require appraisal institutions to issue corresponding investigation results? On the question of whether or not to cheat insurance, Mr. Chen responded: many people suspect me of cheating insurance, so why should I cheat insurance? I didn't drink or take drugs. I already said that I was forced to let the appraisal agency write that it was my fault.

In addition, it should be noted that Tesla sued Mr. Chen because after the accident, when the appraisal result was the full responsibility of the owner, Mr. Chen repeatedly said in online platforms and media interviews that "brakes failed, automatic acceleration", and so on. Tesla thought that this had violated the brand reputation right, so he sued Mr. Chen in court. According to the judgment, the court ruled in favour of Tesla in the first instance and ordered Mr. Chen to apologize to Tesla and pay 50, 000 yuan in compensation to Tesla on the top of his account on Douyin for 90 days.

It is understood that the user name "Wenzhou Tesla owner Chen Junyi" issued the judgment on the video platform, with the caption "the Internet is not a place outside the law", suspected of apologizing, but many netizens pointed out that this "apology" was insincere. Tesla responded that "the verdict has not yet been implemented." It is worth mentioning that Mr. Chen cleared all the previously released videos and retained only the court judgment.
