AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/02 Report--

Recently, a video widely circulated on the Internet shows BYD 4S store sales taking customers to test drive. In order to demonstrate a certain function, the car waiting for a red light in front of it is regarded as an "obstacle" and deliberately does not step on the brakes. As a result, the demonstration failed and crashed directly into a car in front of it. The car was not only seriously damaged, but also injured many people.

As can be seen from the video, a vehicle with a driving recorder slammed into a white car waiting for a red light in front of it. As a result, the glass in front of the car broke and pushed forward for some distance.

But what makes car owners even more angry is that they thought it was just a common accident, but only through understanding did they know that it was the sales staff of BYD 4S store to take customers to experience a certain vehicle function.

A person who was hit by the car said that they were waiting for the red light when they suddenly noticed that the car behind them was smoking, so they were worried that the car was going to explode, so they got off quickly.

From the vehicle recorder involved, the test driver of a BYD 4S store at that time, with a truckload of customers, seemed to be testing a function of the vehicle, using the front car as an "obstacle". And I also heard that the salesperson at that time explained to the customer, "No need to brake!" . As a result, I didn't succeed in the test, so I just hit it. Netizens who watched the video said: this is simply joking with other people's lives.

The owner of the accident also said that he was also injured in the accident, had a bloodstain on her neck strangled by a seat belt, and her sister was hit with a dislocation of the cervical vertebra, expressing dissatisfaction with the lack of active contact with the 4S store afterwards.

For this accident, the police also made an accident recognition letter. The parties of BYD's vehicle bear all the responsibility for the accident and violate Article 43 of the Traffic Road Law of the people's Republic of China. The rear car should keep a safe distance from the front car enough to take emergency braking measures.

In response to this matter, Xinxiang City New Di BYD 4S store staff responded to the car: this is just a traffic accident that may occur during a normal test drive. Ms. Li's daughter asked excitedly, "is this normal?"

The person in charge of the Xindi BYD 4S store in Xinxiang City said that it was only because the test drivers were negligent when introducing the functions of the vehicle to customers. As for the factual description of "introducing and testing vehicle ACC adaptive cruise system" in the confirmation, the person in charge said that the sales consultant was only introducing how to use it at that time, but was not using the function. And indicated that he was willing to bear all the costs of the accident.

Many netizens also expressed their views on the accident.

After mediation, the person in charge of the 4S store said that he was willing to take 30,000 yuan as compensation, and the rest of the vehicle losses, medical fees, late work fees, and so on, will actively contact the insurance company for compensation. Finally, the two sides reached an agreement.

It is normal for a 4S store to show vehicle performance, but it can not be used in such an extreme way. You can choose to use some other obstacles to test the vehicle in a specific safety demonstration zone. If something like this is not done well, it will only bring harm to the safety of yourself or customers and others.
