According to CCTV News, in July 2024, when the Accident Squadron of the Traffic Management Brigade of the Cixi City Public Security Bureau in Zhejiang Province was sorting out the accident data in the first half of the year, it was discovered that more than 30 vehicles had high-frequency traffic accidents and all had insurance claims.One of the online ride-hailing drivers, Li, had 42 accidents in half a year, far more than in previous years.Further investigation revealed that more than 10 people who had frequent accidents, including Li, were all related to the same auto repair factory, which caused concern.
According to data from insurance companies that insure vehicles, it was found that all vehicle claims were paid into the account of the same auto repair shop, which collected these amounts uniformly.
In order to find out the truth, the traffic police reviewed the video of the accident in public places and found that accidents mostly occurred on remote roads and during morning and evening rush hours, and that the vehicles involved in the accident were following each other before the accident.
and, there are also cars that follow the car in front for a long time, and there is the possibility of deliberately causing an accident. The owner of the car that was hit reported that when he changed lanes or turned, the vehicle behind suddenly accelerated and hit him, causing him to be fully responsible.
In August 2024, the case was transferred to the Economic Investigation Brigade of Cixi Public Security Bureau. After investigation, it was found that the owner of the auto repair shop, He, and his partner Zhang, in order to make profits, colluded with customers to cause accidents and defraud insurance, forming a complete chain of fraud.
At first, He and Zhang used the scooters in the repair shop to deliberately cause traffic accidents with their friends, and successfully obtained compensation. Under the temptation of making quick money, they instigated other drivers to join in.
In the end, the police found out thatFrom August 2024 to October 2025, this gang carried out more than 140 insurance fraud cases, with the amount of fraud amounting to more than 1.2 million yuan.Recently, He and 23 other people were subject to criminal coercive measures by the public security organs of Cixi City, Zhejiang Province on suspicion of fraud. Currently, the case is still under further investigation.
