According to the "Peninsula Morning News", an online car-hailing driver in Chongqing insisted on following the navigation, and was directly slapped by the passenger, and the driver demanded compensation of 20,000 yuan, but the passenger did not pay, and the passenger was administratively detained in accordance with the law.
The event passed
On April 22, 2024, when Mr. Mo, a passenger, booked a special express bus on a taxi platform, and when he was only 900 meters away from his destination, Mr. Mo asked the driver to go to the right side of the bridge.
The driver, Mr. Hong, didn't understand why he went on the bridge from the right, so he asked why, and the passenger, Mr. Mo, kept repeating that he got on the bridge from the right, don't ask why, just listen to me.
During the communication between the two was not friendly, the passenger scolded the driver a few words, and only then did he say the reason for changing the route, because the road taken by the navigation will be jammed, and the driver retorted that I should listen to you and go there, you must follow the navigation.
The driver, in line with the principle of not suffering a loss, directly scolded back, and said, Since you use this taxi software, you have to accept this navigation, why should I follow what you say? And the passenger also said that others can change the taxi before, why can't you?
The driver replied, others can, but I can't!
Maybe this sentence angered the passenger, got up and rounded his arm, and slapped the driver in the face, the driver just sneered, calmly unbuckled his seat belt and called the police.
At the same time, the driver also said that if you have money, it's okay to fight, just remember to lose money when the police arrive!
After the police arrived at the scene, it was determined that the main responsible person for the incident was the passenger Mr. Mo, the driver demanded compensation of 20,000 yuan, and the passenger was only willing to pay 3,000 yuan.
Netizen comments
Some netizens are still more puzzled about the problem of online car-hailing navigation, I believe that friends who have taken a car know that sometimes the navigation of online car-hailing is really unreliable, and it is clear that it will arrive on its own, so it has to give you a few turns, not to mention the multi-distance and waste passengers' time. It is hoped that the ride-hailing company can arrange for passengers to choose their own routes according to the actual situation on the spot.
There are also some netizens who think that the special car, has enjoyed so many discounts, and will not add money, the driver can go how he wants, as long as he can safely send me to the destination, the fixed price and the express single driver masters are actually not very willing to take it, they can't make any money, and they will be forced to take orders by the platform, most of the drivers want to send passengers as soon as possible, so as to take the next order.
There are also some driver masters, come forward to explain, if you don't follow the navigation, it is easy to be judged by the platform to detour, once you are complained, you will be deducted by the platform, in fact, this belongs to the platform's problem, the driver will not follow the navigation will be complained about deducting money, according to the navigation sometimes you will meet Mr. Mo This kind of customer, the driver is actually not very easy to do.
There are also some netizens who have found blind spots, thinking that the behavior of passengers is disrespectful to the lives of others and their own lives, beating the driver who is driving, it is easy to cause traffic accidents, and if you are not careful, it will cause a big disaster, and we should strongly resist any form of violence!
The editor thinks
In fact, I have encountered this situation in my own taxi, as long as I explain it politely to the driver, I will generally listen to you, Mr. Mo, a passenger, first of all, I did not respect the driver's profession, and the attitude at the beginning was very bad, and secondly, regardless of any situation, it is definitely not possible to do it, it is a manifestation that I am not responsible for myself and others.
