3 1 year-old entrepreneur died in a car accident! Driving data exposure: 80% of the driver's assisted mileage.

A car accident at the Sino-Singapore Jingwei client in August 16 (Fu) pushed Weilai Automobile and "autonomous driving" to the forefront.

On August 14, an official account of wechat, a certified individual named "meiyihao", published an obituary saying that at 2 pm on August 1 4, Lin Wenqin (nicknamed "Meng jianke"), the founder of Shangshan ruoshui investment management company, unify the world catering management company and meiyihao brand management company, drove Weilai ESs.

At present, the investigation results have not been made public, and it is difficult to infer responsibility because of limited data. However, in the response of Weilai Automobile, it was emphasized that "Navigate on Pilot(NOP) pilot assistance is not automatic driving".

So, who "confused" this concept? Does the enterprise have the suspicion of exaggerating propaganda, and let the car owners go on the road with "misunderstanding" and pay the price of their lives? Safety is no small matter. In any case, this accident is enough to sound the alarm for the fanatical industry.

The case is still under investigation.

The late owner Lin Wenqin was a young entrepreneur. Established Yiqi Hong Kong-style Afternoon Tea, Daxi Spicy Mix, Guo Juxia, Jia Ru Pollen and other famous restaurant chain brands, with more than 500 franchise stores in China. According to Tianyancha, Lin Wenqin is the legal representative of 12 companies, and 7 companies are shareholders.

Lin Wenqin's Weilai ES8 car was seriously damaged in the accident. The scene pictures provided by Mr. Zheng, a friend of ours, to Zhongxin Jingwei client show that the hood of the vehicle has been completely torn off, the A-pillar has been damaged, the roof has been severely squeezed and deformed, the left front and driving door of the vehicle have been severely deformed, and the two front wheels have been damaged.

It is reported that Weilai ES8 is Weilai's first mass production model, and the official guide price is 468,000-624,000 yuan. At present, the official has not announced the results of the accident investigation. On June 5438+05, a person from Weilai Brand Department replied to Zhongxin Jingwei client that it was under official investigation and there was no conclusion yet. Subsequent survey results will be synchronized with the outside world.

Lin Wenqin's family and friends are also waiting for data disclosure and investigation. According to the materials provided by Mr. Zheng to the client of Zhongxin Jingwei, at 15, the person in charge of Weinan Region of Weilai Fujian called Weilai headquarters in the traffic police office. The traffic police have asked Weilai to send relevant driving data, and there will be a reply next week. "When I called, the traffic police were driving the law enforcement recorder. Of course, we also have relevant evidence here. Now that the case is still under investigation, we are not convenient to announce it. " Mr. Zheng said.

Mr. Zheng also provided the App driving data recording screen to the Zhongxin Jingwei client. The data shows that the cumulative journey of Weilai ES8 in Lin Wenqin is 263,065,438+0 km. The last trip was recorded as August 2nd afternoon 13, with a mileage of 85km and a total duration of 1 13 minutes. The average speed is 45. 1 km/h, and the highest speed is 1 14.6 km/h, in which the pilot's assisted mileage accounts for 80% of the total mileage.

The data map also shows that during the whole journey of the day, the vehicle experienced 1 sudden acceleration and 0 sudden deceleration.

However, more detailed and complete background driving data can only be made public with the cooperation of Wei Lai. It is worth noting that Mr. Zheng questioned that the relevant technicians of Weilai contacted the vehicle involved without the consent of the traffic police. According to the recording provided by Mr. Zheng, the traffic police said that they had summoned Weilai technicians to take notes.

In response to this situation, the Sino-Singapore Jingwei client asked Wei Lai, saying that it is still internally understood and will not make a specific response.

Lin, the entrusted attorney and executive director of Beijing Quanyou Law Firm, said that Weilai Automobile Company has the obligation to provide relevant information to law enforcement agencies to restore the truth of the accident so that law enforcement agencies can objectively identify the responsibility for the accident. If Weilai Automobile Company prevaricates, falsifies, deletes, conceals or refuses to provide information, as the information custodian, Weilai Automobile Company shall make an unfavorable presumption of liability at this time.

The data dispute and the detection of new energy vehicles have all become the focus of the recent Tesla rights protection incident. Data is the most powerful evidence of the vehicle at the time of the incident, and it is the key evidence, and it is not allowed to be fooled. Mr. Founder said that according to the police's response, the judicial authentication institution entrusted by Putian was unprofessional in the identification of new energy vehicles, and it has been entrusted to a judicial authentication institution with the qualification of new energy vehicles in Xiamen. The following materials are generally needed to identify the cause of the accident: background information, EDR data, driving recorder, GPS navigation record, vehicle data before and after vehicle monitoring, on-site road conditions and on-site photos.

Is the enterprise suspected of over-advertising?

In Weilai's response to the accident, it was also mentioned that "NOP pilot assistance is not automatic driving".

This kind of denial is hard to convince Mr. Zheng and netizens. "Weilai's exaggerated propaganda itself is a problem, and various explicit or implicit expressions show its high intelligence and mislead consumers' judgment." Mr. Zheng said. Some netizens also said: "Propaganda is autonomous driving, and accidents are assisted driving. "

Why do they think so? Mr. Zheng provided a video screenshot to the Zhongxin Jingwei client. The video is an introduction to the use of NIO PILOT function, entitled "NIO PILOT liberates your hands".

The full name of NOP system is Navigate on Pilot, and Chinese is navigation status. The external publicity said that "automatic driving from point A to point B is realized, including functions such as ascending and descending, overtaking, merging and cruising". Generally speaking, this is only the upgraded L2-level autopilot function, which is quite far from the real "unmanned driving".

Under the definition of SAE, autonomous driving is divided into six levels: L0-L5. Only after L4 can we get rid of human intervention. Therefore, the level below L4 is generally called assisted driving in the industry. In March 2020, in the Classification of Automobile Driving Automation issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the level of driving automation was divided into 0 -5 levels, only level 3 began to be called conditional automatic driving, and all below level 3 were considered as assisted driving.

In June 5438 +2020 10, Weilai officially pushed the version of NIO OS 2.7.0. The new version adds the NOP navigation assistance function on the basis of the existing NIO Pilot automatic assisted driving system.

The Sino-Singapore Jingwei client noticed that Zhang Jianyong, the head of Weilai's driverless system engineering department, had repeatedly stressed to the outside world that NOP is only an auxiliary function to help users drive safely, and drivers still need to be responsible for the driving safety of vehicles, and bluntly said that "NOP can never be equated with autonomous driving".

However, from 2065438 to August 2009, Shen Fei, vice president of Weilai Automobile, posted a "rollover" video on his personal Weibo. "NIO pilots are becoming more and more addicted. With the help of automatic assisted driving, I can drive safely while eating. " In the video, Shen Fei drives the Weilai ES8 opened by NIO Pilot, and the speed soars to more than 100 yards. Although he was sitting in the driver's seat, his hand left the steering wheel. Subsequently, netizens accused "this is a bad demonstration." Currently, the video has been deleted.

In addition, public reports show that Li Bin, the founder of Weilai, spoke highly of autonomous driving when interviewed by the media. "Automatic driving is to provide users with a service to buy a car and send the driver. As long as the autonomous driving technology is done well enough, it can help users save time, liberate themselves and reduce the accident rate of vehicles. "

On the other hand, perhaps the real controversy lies not in the names of "automatic driving" and "assisted driving", but in Weilai's explanation and display of this function in publicity. This will also become the source of public "misunderstanding".

Cui Dongshu, secretary-general of the National Passenger Car Market Information Association, pointed out in an article that some accidents are inevitable due to various accidental or disturbing factors, regardless of automatic driving or manual driving, so accidents in both automatic driving and manual driving are objective. In most environments, autonomous driving can judge environmental changes more quickly and prevent accidents than manual driving.

"At present, the biggest problem is that consumers are not aware of the risks of autonomous driving. When autopilot is not fully mature, it is risky to trust autopilot too much. At present, no company has announced the realization of autonomous driving, but we have seen that many consumers rely too much on autonomous driving. In most cases, the effect of assisted driving is still very good. " Cui Dongshu said.

Cui Dongshu said, "It is necessary to promote autonomous driving rationally. At present, autonomous driving is prone to over-promotion, consumer misunderstanding and other problems, especially when the media spreads, it is easy to exaggerate the curative effect. There should be compulsory measures to ensure safety. In the future, consumers should be educated on safety precautions to better ensure safety. "

Intelligent electric vehicles have entered the hot track, and safety and risk awareness must be improved simultaneously. As the main body of the enterprise, especially Weilai, which is often advertised as a "user enterprise", it can not be neglected. On the other hand, it is worth pondering whether too much "user traffic view" and worship of forward-looking technology make the industry deviate from the essence of security. In any case, this accident is enough to sound the alarm: don't let the immature "autonomous driving" technology become a road killer.
