Hmm yeah, but hit an ebike, bicycle or pedestrian and then you're the bigger vehicle so then you pay. That's why you need the insurance. Plenty of instances of insurance being very useful or essential on these boards. Trust me, if you hit a pedestrian even if they run out in front of you with zero avoidance opportunity, chances are people will try to turn you into a human ATM.
Though, I agree the red tape sucks.

Ferrari + Lambo crash BJ.jpg
Online speculation mounted in China as police detained the "unemployed" drivers of a Lamborghini and Ferrari that crashed in Beijing as the seventh stunt-filled Fast and Furious movie opened.
Pictures of the mangled wreckage of a lime-green Lamborghini, a damaged red Ferrari and other high-performance cars in a tunnel in the Chinese capital emerged online following Saturday's crash, which police said left one person injured.
A 20-year-old surnamed Yu from Changchun in the northeastern province of Jilin drove the Ferrari, while a man surnamed Tang, aged 21, from Beijing, was in the Lamborghini, police said, adding that both were jobless.
"Socialism is so good that it allows unemployed people to drive supercars," one posting said on Sina Weibo, China's version of Twitter, mocking the country's authoritarian system of Communist rule.
"What are their names? Who are their fathers?" another netizen asked.
A high-speed Ferrari crash in the capital in March 2012 killed the son of Ling Jihua, a close ally of then-president Hu Jintao. Two women passengers, one of them naked, were both injured.
The incident added to public perceptions in China of corrupt and high-living officials, and Ling has since been investigated for graft and dismissed from his post.
The latest crash happened at about 10pm, police said, during heavy rain. It occurred two hours before Furious 7 broke the record for midnight screenings on its launch in China, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
"Were they in a hurry to watch Fast and Furious 7?" one netizen said.
Earlier reports said at least one of the luxury vehicles' drivers was a student, and that residents had complained about cars racing in the tunnel, which is near Beijing's emblematic Bird's Nest stadium.
Beijing police earlier drew derision online for referring to the cars involved as green and red "small passenger-carrying vehicles" in a statement released on Sunday.
"These sure are valuable vehicles," said one posting.
But Monday's police statement identified the makes of both the Lamborghini, which sells for around US$800,000 in China, and the Ferrari, which can cost around US$500,000.

Tankers Illegally Dumping Sewage for Years in Clean Water Supply
Tankers containing sewage water from the landfill in Liulitun, a neighborhood in Beijing's Haidian district, have been illegally discharging their contents into wells for clean-water pipelines during the past several years, sina.com.cn reported on Tuesday.
The illegal dumping came to light when one of the tankers was impounded by Haidian urban management officials on April 8 as it was en route to Xi'erqi, a neighborhood in the district about 10 kilometers away from the landfill.
Workers at the landfill, who spoke under the condition of anonymity, said they dump about 200 tons of sewage water via tanker trucks on a nightly basis. The dumping saves garbage facility about 2.8 million yuan, or $451,000 U.S., per year.
The sewage tankers, which travel under the guise that they are sprinkler trucks, depart the landfill after 10 p.m. in order to minimize suspicion of their activites. They dump smelly sewage water through a black tube into the wells for clean-water pipelines in Xi'erqi neighborhood.

Re: Street Racers
The most recent reports are from the mother of the 21 year old Lambo driver. According to mommy, her son bought the $800,000 (US) Lambo with his own money. He apparently made money playing billiards and then used his winnings to invest in the stock market.
Sure, ok, this sounds entirely believable.
