Soon after, the incident became a hot topic on Weibo and Douyin, with netizens creating memes, sharing humorous comments, and uploading videos from the scene. Some joked that the wedding almost turned into a funeral, while others shared the familiar good luck wish, “breaking brings good fortune.”
Some comments also questioned whether Xiaomi’s automatic emergency braking (AEB) system was functioning. However, there is currently no evidence suggesting that the accident was caused by a technical fault. Traffic experts attribute the likely cause to the hazardous nature of wedding processions, including tailgating, sudden stops, and lack of communication, rather than technological failure.
Recently, the Xiaomi SU7 has gained popularity for wedding processions due to its attractive design, modern electric car appeal, and a range of color options. This Chinese electric car brand is even replacing traditional choices like Audi, BMW, and Porsche in contemporary wedding processions.
As of now, the Hefei traffic police have not released an official conclusion regarding the cause or responsibility for the accident. According to Chinese traffic laws, in rear-end collision cases, the driver of the following vehicle is usually held responsible for failing to maintain a safe distance.
