◦ Drive in Shanghai
Foreigner
should take local license (easy apply if you have international drive
license) when driving in Shanghai, usually you need to modify driving habits. The traffic
is heavily congested and many of the local drivers are inexperienced.
Cyclists and Pedestrians are generally undisciplined and often ignore
traffic lights, the best way to avoid accidents is to drive slowly and
defensively.
In the event of a traffic accident involving person injury, Chinese law
requires the following:
-
Injured
people should be immediately taken to the hospital
-
The
scene of the accident should be preserved and the police should be
called. Those involved should wait at the scene of the accident until
the police arrive.
If
an accident occurs and there is no personal injury the parties may agree
amongst themselves at to the cost of the damages and settle the case
themselves on the spot. This course of action may jeopardize any insurance
claims.
