The lawyer reminded:
When doing good deeds, one should have a certain sense of evidence
Regarding what happened to Mr. Ai, some people have thought about how to make good people do good deeds.
In this regard, Lin Xiaoming, a lawyer from Sichuan Van Gogh Law Firm, told reporters that, judging from what is known, Mr. Ai's continuous three red lights to send the baby to the doctor is of the nature of righteousness.
Lin Xiaoming believes that Mr. Ai running the red light is to prevent or reduce the risk of the baby, and it is more in line with the elements of emergency avoidance.
If Mr. Ai incurs damage to himself as a result, he can ask the infant's family to give corresponding compensation.
Lin Xiaoming said that according to the Civil Code, if damage is caused by emergency avoidance of danger, the person who caused the danger shall bear civil liability.
It can be known from this incident that the person who caused the danger was a sick baby, and the thing that caused the danger was the sudden loss of consciousness of the baby, and the parents of the baby were their legal guardians, so they should bear the civil liability for the danger.
From this perspective, the refusal of the baby’s family to testify has violated the relevant regulations. “It has nothing to do with him when he runs a red light” and there is no legal basis.
If Mr. Ai is punished for (damage) incurred by saving the baby, then he can ask the beneficiary, the guardian of the baby, to compensate him.
Lin Xiaoming said that the actions of the local police are worthy of recognition, but at the same time remind everyone that they should also have a certain sense of evidence when doing good deeds: for example, shooting corresponding videos or photos to prove that the situation is urgent at the time and similar measures need to be taken.
