On November 20, 2023, a 22-year-old female teacher in Nanyang City, Henan Province, was collided and crushed by a 75-year-old Li driving a four-wheeled old man on the way to buy vegetables at night, resulting in one death and one injury, including Xiaochan, and the 75-year-old man hit and run, and the perpetrator has not been found so far. This incident caused a huge reaction in society. Many people have begun to call for a ban on low-speed electric vehicles on the road again! So, judging from this incident, should low-speed electric vehicles be banned?
1. The core of the accident is "people", not "cars".
In this incident, the 75-year-old Li himself has a weak sense of road traffic safety, ignoring traffic rules, which is the core reason for the tragedy, plus Li himself is older, and the response to emergencies is relatively slow, and because of the fear of choosing to escape, the core problem lies in Li himself, and the whole accident has nothing to do with the quality of the vehicle itself!
If the vehicle in this incident is replaced by a car, will everyone put the perspective on the prohibition of cars? Obviously not, therefore, due to the lack of standards and new regulations, everyone naturally wears colored glasses when looking at the safety of low-speed electric vehicles.
Second, the core of the solution is to strengthen the management of low-speed electric vehicle system
Just imagine, even if there is no low-speed electric vehicle, the incident of 75-year-old Li will not happen? If you change to other means of transportation, a similar tragedy will still happen to Li, and the core is to take care of an old man like Li who doesn't understand traffic rules. The best way is to list low-speed electric vehicles with the owner of the real-name binding, something can find the person responsible, at the same time, low-speed electric vehicles mandatory insurance, car owners in the purchase of low-speed electric vehicles, require car sellers to give car owners 1 week of safety and practical training, otherwise merchants are not allowed to sell low-speed electric vehicles to consumers.
3. Should low-speed electric vehicles be banned to see if the benefits outweigh the disadvantages?
As we all know, why low-speed electric vehicles are so popular? is because it solves the problem of transportation for many middle-aged and elderly people. Have a group of absolute rigid needs. He is of great significance for improving transportation in remote areas, and in cities where buses and subways are not dense enough, old-age scooters play a very important role in short- and medium-distance travel.
Low-speed electric vehicles have been criticized for its lack of standards, can not be on the compliance of new energy vehicle licenses, while the use of most of the group is over 60 years old, some vehicles are close to the car, the elderly do not have rich experience in road driving, the overall response sensitivity is also low, this is indeed a big challenge for road safety, overall, low-speed electric vehicles to the community contribution is greater than the harm it brings!
Summary:
In order to avoid the occurrence of similar tragedies, I hope that the relevant departments will call for low-speed electric vehicle technical standards and road standards as soon as possible, and at the same time improve the construction of public transportation, to solve the problem of short-distance travel for the elderly, as long as these problems are solved, low-speed electric vehicles (old man music) will naturally be eliminated!
