Same thing here, just change the number from a couple hundred million to tens of thousand.

Here's an actual picture of the aftermath. Obviously I'm not going to inline it, you'll have to click the link to see it -
Wow something don't add up in that pic. How can the guy's head have that much blood when it's his lower body that gets crushed and how can the women crush her head when there are that much room between the door and the wall?

It almost look like the government assassinated those people and made some S** up about some parking accident.

Pretty scary that I see this almost everyday here in socal.

That picture looks really weird...like it was 2 pictures superimposed into 1 picture.
I thought the husband was standing behind the car...he looks like he's slumped in the front seat

And wasn't she supposed to be IN the driver's seat with her head pin against the door and wall?

Story doesn't add up somewhere

Doesn't matter if it did. I'd say it takes a lot more to practice to look at the camera while reversing WHILE slowly guiding with your foot on the brake.

Most people are still confused with the gas and brake...I don't think they'll even be coordinated enough to do all this

Some of the details of exactly how the accident occured are probably lost or distorted during the translation, that's my guess, I know how well some Chinese stories can be translated into English there

If your crushed to death, everything gets forced up out through your eyes, ears, nose and mouth, this is sad but obviously these 2 were not meant to be here any longer

This is why I never park inside the parking lot of all Asian's establishments, mainly 99 Ranch market. All those newly licensed fresh off the boat folks would ram your car without even acknowledging it.

This is why we need autonomous car, is to help these clueless people.

And to think that there are many ultra wealthy folks in China that own ultra powerful hypercar but have no driving skills, oh boy!! Don't know how to control a 1000+ hp car is not funny

Hyper cars owners in China are mostly corrupted government official that can do whatever they want, why would they give you money if they don't have to?

They own the law, the court and the judge..........go ahead and try to sue them

For all of you guys who can't picture how the situation went down, I THINK I have mapped out a very close scenario of what happened.

The maroon represents the RX, the maroon arrow curving into the parking spot shows the attempted entry of the vehicle. The green dot is the husband guiding the vehicle from the CORNER of the wall. As the vehicle backed in, the woman pinned the husband to the corner.

When she heard the yells, she accidently reversed INTO the husband, effectively impaling/shoving him into the corner, killing him (red star). She then took the same route of exit as entry. Her head was sticking out so she didn't see the wall closing in on her as the vehicle moved forward, so it probably crushed half of her face.

She was still conscious at that time so she managed to crawl out of the vehicle onto the floor (the blue star)

The yellow star is the little girl still inside the vehicle.

Maybe I missed something, but that is what I got out of it.

Truly a terrible moment for this family.
