In China, it has been claimed that a car wrapped around a damaged area with tape is used for a ride-hailing service. This service means using one's own vehicle or rental car to operate with a call like a taxi.

According to Hong Kong media South China Morning Post, a netizen recently shared a photo of a severely crushed vehicle driving in Qingdao, Shandong Province.

The trunk of the car was so badly damaged that it was completely twisted in shape and covered with transparent adhesive tape.




In addition, all parts of the vehicle appeared to be seriously damaged.

The video publisher posted a message on social media, "It's shocking. I think this car can sink down at any time."

The owner of the vehicle was a middle-aged woman who was found to have been in an accident by a drunk driver a few months ago.




The perpetrator of the accident is holding out by refusing to bear the cost of the repair, according to Chinese media Xiaoxiang Morning News.

As the temperature dropped and the wind blew into the vehicle, the owner of the vehicle even put on foam tape.

Despite this poor condition, the woman was seen washing her car meticulously.




Online, he pointed out that driving should not be carried out, raising the risk of accidents.

Netizens criticized "Horrible Vehicle Condition"and "Driving in this condition can create a dangerous situation for others as well."

The Qingdao Municipal Transportation Bureau, which identified the problem, said the vehicle is currently suspended and undergoing repairs.

Driving a damaged vehicle is illegal in China, and violations can result in fines of up to 2,000 yuan (about 390,000 won) and suspension of licenses.

According to China's transportation authorities, the number of ride-hailing drivers registered in China exceeded 7.1 million as of June this year.

According to the survey, as the number of drivers providing ride-hailing services increases, the average monthly income is only 6,000 to 8,000 yuan (about 1.17 million to 1.56 million won) if they work more than 14 hours a day.
