A three-car crash occurred in Xuzhou, Jiangsu. All drivers remained beside their vehicles talking on phones instead of securing the scene or alerting authorities promptly.
Social Context
China’s Road Traffic Safety Law mandates immediate hazard mitigation after accidents—including setting warning triangles and calling police. Failure carries fines up to ¥200 and license points deduction. Public campaigns like ‘Ten-Minute Rule’ emphasize that delay significantly increases secondary collision risk.
Safety Tip
After any collision, drivers must activate hazard lights, place warning devices 50+ meters behind (urban) or 150+ meters (highway), then call 122 before handling insurance.
