A piece of news in mainland China about a woman who spent 800 yuan (approximately NT$3,536) to hoist her car to the roof of a building to prevent it from getting soaked in water has attracted widespread attention recently. It is reported that due to continuous rainfall in Maoming City, Guangdong Province, the water level continued to rise on the 20th. In order to protect her new car, a female car owner surnamed Chen came up with a special method, which was to ask a crane to lift the car to the roof of the third floor of her home.
According to local media reports, Ms. Chen said that she just bought her car last year. She was afraid that the new car would get soaked in water, so she decided to spend 800 yuan to hire a crane to lift the car to the roof. In this regard, many netizens expressed their understanding and believed that such an approach is worthwhile under special circumstances; some people bluntly said that although hoisting the vehicle to the roof can avoid being soaked in water, there are also certain safety hazards if the crane is not operated properly. Or the roof bearing capacity is insufficient, which may cause safety accidents.
Regarding the comments from netizens, Ms. Chen emphasized that she doesn’t care what others say. She just wants to protect her car. Besides, there is nothing wrong with similar actions and it does not affect others. Besides, if the car is unfortunately soaked in water, the repair cost will be high. It must be more than 800 yuan.
In fact, there are two troubling points in dealing with the aftermath of water-damaged vehicles. One is to spend money to repair. Although it can be repaired, the vehicle has been soaked in water after all, and the electrical circuits inside are quite unstable, which makes it very special to drive. It’s not a taste; the second is total loss, because the car price that insurance can compensate does not include purchase tax. If it is a new car, even if it is compensated as a total loss, the car owner will still lose a lot.
