on september 8, jimu news sent a private message to the netizen to learn about the latest situation, but received no reply. however, he posted the latest developments on his account, saying: "i have received a call from the public security traffic police. the online car-hailing vehicle and the driver involved have been found, and the three female passengers have apologized to me. because i was injured and need to go to the hospital for examination, the subsequent determination of liability and compensation is still being resolved."

jimu news reporter learned from an interview that the incident happened in longquanyi district, chengdu. the longquanyi district traffic police department responded that the accident is currently being handled, the three female passengers have been found, and the online ride-hailing vehicle involved has been temporarily detained, but the responsibility for the accident has not yet been clearly determined.

hu lei, a lawyer at sichuan dingchi law firm, told jimu news that according to article 63, paragraph 4 of the regulations for the implementation of the road traffic safety law of the people's republic of china, doors must not be opened or passengers must not get on or off the vehicle before it stops, and the opening and closing of doors must not hinder the passage of other vehicles and pedestrians. "if the vehicle is parked illegally and a passenger opens the door and causes an accident, the driver should bear more than the main responsibility; if the vehicle was not parked illegally at the time, the proportion of responsibility should be determined based on the specific circumstances."

lawyer hu lei made a specific analysis and believed that, under the premise that the driver did not park illegally, if it can be proved that the driver fulfilled his obligation to remind the passenger at the time, but the passenger failed to fulfill his obligation to observe and pay attention when getting off the vehicle, resulting in an accident, the passenger should bear the main responsibility; if the driver did not fulfill his obligation to remind the passenger, the driver bears the main responsibility, and the passenger must also bear certain supplementary responsibilities; if both the driver and the passenger fulfilled their respective obligations, the responsibility of the cyclist also needs to be clarified.

lawyer hu lei also pointed out that if the vehicle involved is a taxi, online car-hailing vehicle or other operating vehicle, the driver has the obligation to ensure safety and give reminders before and during the process of stopping to drop off passengers; if the obligation is not fulfilled, the driver needs to bear the main responsibility. "if it is an online car-hailing vehicle, then the online car-hailing company or platform should bear joint and several liability with the driver and passengers. in addition, if the online car-hailing driver knows that an accident has occurred and still drives away from the scene, he is suspected of hit-and-run."
