AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)06/19 Report--

On June 11, a test driving accident occurred at a 4S store in Baoruixiang, Huaian, Jiangsu Province, killing and injuring people in the car. After the event, many 4S stores issued warning messages to the clerks, asking for further regulation of customer test driving, speeding is strictly prohibited, and rear test riders must wear seat belts and so on.

Recently, relatives of the deceased continued to pull banners in front of the Audi 4S store and posted Weibo, causing controversy among netizens.

According to netizens on June 18, relatives of the deceased in the test drive continued to go to Audi 4S store to discuss the follow-up to the accident. A lot of people gathered at the scene, and then police officers came in. The details are unknown.

Netizens claiming to be relatives of the deceased in the test driving accident posted Weibo, saying that Audi 4S store staff were indifferent to the safety risks, only to promote vehicles, and the 4S store neglected to manage obvious safety problems. Ruthless after the accident.

The netizen also said, "Audi 4S store should ensure our personal safety. If the safety administrator of Audi 4S store is more serious and responsible, it is not allowed to overload, and the road is safer for test driving. Children are not allowed to get on the car or provide safety chairs, and it would not be so cruel to wear seat belts in the back row."

Subsequently, the Weibo also aroused heated discussion among netizens.

In the accident on the same day, an Audi test driver collided with a three-wheeled motorcycle carrying a wreath. Neither the Audi test driver nor the co-driver was in danger. On the contrary, the passenger sitting in the back of the Audi test drive died because of ineffective rescue. The traffic police initially suspected that the deceased did not wear a seat belt. According to the police report, the driver is Gu (female, 34 years old).

Sources from the Audi 4S store suspected of being involved in the incident pointed out that the test driving model was Q5L, the test driving commissioner sat in the copilot seat, the driver was the customer preparing to buy the car, and the passenger in the back seat was not wearing a seat belt and was thrown out of the car at the time of the accident.

Judging from several surveillance videos of the incident, the two cars that collided were faster, and there were no obvious signs of deceleration at the intersection. At present, the relevant situation of the accident is not clear, and the determination of responsibility has not been made public.

Netizens have different views on the fact that the families of the deceased are looking for 4S stores to protect their rights.

Some netizens pointed out: it is reasonable to make such a noise is a typical disturbance of business order. Another netizen believes that the test driving commissioner has the responsibility and obligation to remind rear passengers to wear seat belts, but the subjective responsibility for speeding through the intersection lies entirely with the driver, which is also the chief culprit of the accident.

While feeling sad and sorry for the accident, we should also pay attention to the problems existing in the test drive. The 4S store must have strict process control. In addition to signing the "Test driving Agreement" with customers, they must abide by the traffic rules in the process of test driving, and do not exceed the speed limit in order to show the performance of the vehicle. Many accidents occur, often caused by speeding. To ensure safety, be sure to fasten your seat belt even if you sit in the back.

It is hoped that the traffic police will issue a certificate of responsibility as soon as possible and give each one an explanation. In addition, the automobile industry should set an example, standardize the test drive process, urge customers to test drive safely, and avoid such casualties.
