How to determine the responsibility of high-altitude throwing objects?

The latest judicial interpretation of the Civil Code is here

On September 26, the Supreme People's Court issued the Interpretation (I) on the Application of the Tort Liability Part of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China), which deals with hot issues such as minors, prohibition of dogs injuring people, and throwing objects from high altitudes.

On the basis of the provisions on liability for damage caused by high-altitude throwing objects and falling objects in the Civil Code, the Interpretation (I) on the Application of the Tort Liability Part of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China further stipulates this liability in two more articles:

It is clearly stipulated that if a high-altitude thrown object or falling object causes damage to others, the specific infringer is the first responsible entity, and the property management service enterprise that fails to take the necessary safety measures shall bear the supplementary liability of the second; It is clearly stipulated that if it is not possible to determine the specific infringer who caused the injury caused by the high-altitude throwing object or falling object, the property management service enterprise and other building managers who have not taken the necessary safety and security measures shall first bear the responsibility corresponding to their fault.

The user of the building who may have caused the damage shall be appropriately compensated for the damage of the remaining part of the infringed party. After assuming responsibility, the above-mentioned responsible entity has the right to recover compensation from the specific infringer determined in the future.

A small cigarette butt, a lot of firepower!

Why do cigarette butts cause fires?

High core temperature. The temperature of the center of the cigarette butt is up to 700-800°C, and the temperature at the burning edge of the roll paper is 200-300°C. The ignition point of general combustibles, such as paper, cotton, firewood, wood, etc., is 130-390 °C, which is lower than the temperature of cigarette butts. Cigarette butts can cause many combustible substances to burn, which in turn can cause fires.

Smoldering properties. The combustion of cigarettes is smoldering, a slow-burning phenomenon without a flame that does not produce a flame, but also releases a large amount of heat. (*"Smoldering" refers to the phenomenon of slow burning without flames, and many solid materials, such as paper, sawdust, fabrics, etc., can smoldering.) )

High concealment and long burning time. Leftover cigarette butts typically last for 1 to 4 minutes, during which time many flammable items can be ignited. Sometimes cigarette butts are thrown in quilts and sawdust, and they have to smolder for dozens of minutes, which is not easy to be noticed and dangerous!

Smokers should not smoke in public, and should pay attention to smoking at home: do not smoke after drinking, do not smoke in bed, do not litter cigarette butts, and make sure that cigarette butts are extinguished after smoking before discarding.
