The Shenzhen Traffic Police Department announced on its microblog Sunday that it had found the hit-and-run driver who killed 7 year-old Zhang Minghui in a parking lot in Shenzhen on Saturday, Shenzhen Daily reports.
We originally told you about the story on Saturday:
The Shenzhen Police are making use of their Weibo account again, this time in search of a driver who hit a 7-year old girl around 3:30 today (Saturday) in the parking lot of Wan Lu Dong Jiang Restaurant on Taoyuan Street in Nanshan District. After hitting the girl, the car sped off. The second-grader was rushed to hospital where she was pronounced dead.
Security cameras showed two cars flee the scene and tests showed that Zhang had been killed by the brand-new Toyota of a new driver Zhou Desheng.
Zhang, whose parents make a living by collecting and recycling scrap, was playing with her brother when she was hit. She died in hospital of her wounds.
Since new guidelines were introduced this year, the pass rate of driving tests in China has decreased sharply as police seek to keep dangerously inexperienced and inept drivers off the road.
Maybe the tests need to become even more difficult.
