据报道，11月1日下午6点30分，广东省乐昌市的张某驾驶大货车经过大里镇大塘村时，不慎刮到了横过马路的电线电缆，电线电缆随着车辆的拉力不仅拉断了电杆，还拉断了路旁一棵树杈。···········

············································

当晚待现场勘查交通事故的民警撤离后，村民们声称这是守护当地社公的“神树”，不能有丝毫侵犯，拉断树枝就是破坏风水，并向司机张某提出了高达3万元的高额赔偿，司机张某当即拒绝。于是村民里三重外三重的把张某团团围住，进退两难的张某不得不再次报警。······················

北流市公安局交通管理大队第四中队的中队长吴光带领警员迅速回到现场，了解到详细情况后，吴光分组对各方进行调解。由于村民态度强硬，一直调节到凌晨三点都没有进展。

为防止事态恶化，吴光带领警员在现场守护着驾驶员张某，同时继续做各方的思想工作。第二天8点，当地镇政府、司法所的工作人员和村干部也赶到现场联合交警部门一起调解，动之以情晓之以理给村民开导。············································

经过大家的努力，到下午4点左右，村民态度开始出现缓和，抓住这个有利契机，调解组让村民甄选出代表到当地镇政府继续商谈。一个小时后，双方终于达成了和解协议，驾驶员张某一次性赔偿人民币5400元给村民代表，双方不再追究对方的责任。
