Fall into the elevator

(July 3,China) A woman riding a tricycle crashed through an elevator door and fell in a market in Nantong, Jiangsu province.

A staff member of the Guanyinshan branch of the Market Supervision Administration said Monday morning that there was no quality problem with the elevator itself, and the woman in the video was killed by accidentally turning the throttle of the tricycle and opening the door of the cargo elevator.

The official said the accident did not belong to the special equipment accident, but the woman herself turned the throttle of the tricycle to open the elevator door. According to the special equipment accident investigation rules, it is an external factor.

"The elevator is normal maintenance is normal detection, in the maintenance period. The button to operate the elevator door is manually operated, and there is no problem with the operation of this equipment. The official stressed again that the woman made a mistake by turning the throttle of the tricycle and opening the elevator door, "so she was an external factor and it was not a special equipment accident. Not our department director, there is no problem with the elevator itself."
