Who is the main responsibility for pedestrians being hit for running a red light? After the answer was announced, the car owners were "furious"
Now there are more and more cars on the road, so sometimes the frequent occurrence of traffic accidents is a very headache. Because the most important thing is that people's living standards have been greatly improved now, buying a private car is not a difficult task for many people, and especially young people who need to drive when commuting to and from get off work now, but this period is often the peak driving period.
The thing that cars fear the most when driving on the road is to hit pedestrians, because pedestrians are not driving. If they hit pedestrians, they are 100% responsible. Therefore, hitting pedestrians is a very serious matter. Basically, most car owners will choose to buy insurance. In this way, after hitting people, the insurance company will also pay a part of the money.
But sometimes it will be very unlucky. For example, if you encounter some pedestrians who like to run red lights and have no qualities, if you encounter pedestrians who ignore traffic rules like this, will the owner still be responsible? The answer given is that the owner is still responsible. Because pedestrians are vulnerable when facing cars, they are protected by law. If even pedestrians are hit by the car while running a red light, the owner will still have to pay 10% of the loss.
Some car owners were very confused after hearing this answer. Many car owners were also furious. Some car owners even said that this is unfair because pedestrians ignore traffic rules and drivers strictly abide by traffic rules. Why do pedestrians who run red lights like this still bear legal responsibility? The reason is that when the car owner crosses the road, he sees pedestrians passing by, and in principle, he must slow down.
If the car still does not slow down when facing pedestrians, if pedestrians run red lights, there is no way to stop in time, which leads to a traffic tragedy. Therefore, according to the law, the car must slow down when crossing the road, so as to ensure that it can stop in time and effectively when encountering pedestrians running red lights.
Although for many car owners, being responsible is something that is unfair to encounter pedestrians running red lights, most pedestrians will strictly abide by traffic regulations when crossing the road. If the pedestrian's power is not protected in this way, there is no way to restrict car owners from giving way to pedestrians when crossing the road. If the car owner fails to give in to pedestrians, he will also be deducted points and fined.
In fact, these reasons are very simple, all because pedestrians belong to a completely vulnerable group when facing a car. Because the car hits pedestrians, pedestrians cannot protect them. Therefore, some car owners think that this regulation is somewhat unreasonable or unfair, and are actually considered from their own interests, while the law looks at the problem from an objective perspective, so it is not just from the perspective of the car owner.
