Professor Liu Guoqiang of Xianyang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine was killed in a car trip. Are the owners and drivers liable for compensation?

That depends on whether the owner and the driver are at fault. For example:

1. If the owner gives the car to someone who is not qualified to drive, both the owner and the driver are at fault and must be responsible for Liu's death.

2. If the owner gives the car to a qualified driver, there is nothing wrong with the owner choosing the driver. If the accident is caused by the driver's master's illegal driving, the owner doesn't know and the owner is not at fault, the driver should be responsible for Liu's right and wrong. If the owner knows that the driver is driving illegally and does not stop it until it happens, both the owner and the driver are at fault and should bear the responsibility.

3. The car is unqualified, such as scrapped cars and faulty cars, and the owner should bear the responsibility whether he knows it or not; If the driver knowingly commits a crime, the driver will bear the responsibility.

4. If the accident is caused by a third party, such as an accident caused by a third party's vehicle, the third party shall be liable for compensation.

In this accident, if both parties are not at fault and fall within the scope of insurance company's claims (for example, the vehicle is insured, and there are casualties or drivers and passengers in the vehicle), they can claim compensation from the insurance company. If not, you must bear it yourself, because after all, it is not a paid ride, and neither the driver nor the owner has any compulsory obligation, but can only bear the responsibility for the fault.
