Electric bicycles are widely welcomed in the mainland market and are the most widely circulated means of transportation. And electric bicycles have some obvious advantages over those traditional means of transportation.
For example, it's lighter and more flexible, and it's also cheap. Nowadays, a good quality brand-name bicycle on the market may cost one or two thousand yuan.
But to buy the most basic electric car, that is, more than 1,000 yuan. Moreover, the threshold for electric vehicles on the road is also lower, so electric vehicles can be widely loved by the people.
In such a situation, the state seems to have strengthened its attitude towards the regulation of electric vehicles, such as limiting the speed of electric vehicles to 25 kilometers per hour. So why did the state come up with such a strategy?
1. The original electric vehicle industry lacks legal supervision
In fact, the state will introduce this kind of targeted law in order to further strengthen the supervision of the electric bicycle industry. Let the electric bicycle industry be more standardized and modernized. This is also directly related to the current situation of the electric bicycle industry in the mainland before.
In the beginning, when electric bicycles were just launched, not many people paid attention to them. Because at that time, many people would travel by bicycle and motorcycle.
But it didn't take long for people to discover the advantages of electric bicycles, so electric vehicles began to develop rapidly in China at a rapid pace. At the same time, a large number of widely welcomed electric bicycle manufacturers have also emerged, such as Emma, Yadea and so on.
But the problem is, electric bikes are a new thing after all. It took less than ten years from its appearance to its popularity, so the supervision of electric bicycle manufacturers has not been perfect. As a result, many electric bicycle manufacturers produce cars that do not meet safety regulations.
There are some e-bikes that are so powerful that they can even run up to 50 or even 60 km/h on the road. In order to further compete for customers, some electric bicycle manufacturers will also provide special customized services for some customers with special needs, such as installing flashing lights on some young people's electric bicycles.
Eventually, it led to the emergence of a special group among young people, which is called spiritual youth. But in fact, these special electric bicycles, they are not very safe.
Moreover, the original electric bicycle does not belong to motor vehicles, so it is inappropriate to use the motor vehicle management law to manage electric bicycles. The traffic police see these electric bicycles on the street violating the law, and sometimes they can't do effective punishment
Because I don't know which laws and regulations should be managed in accordance with electric bicycles. Over time, the long-term wild growth of electric bicycles has led to a series of safety problems.
In the past few years, the major media in the mainland have published various news reports about the chaos of electric bicycles.
Second, electric bicycles often have accidents
In the past, there have been cases where e-bikes collide with motorcycles or motor vehicles while driving on the street. In the end, it led to a very serious safety incident.
Compared with ordinary motor vehicles, electric bicycles do have the characteristics of being lighter and more convenient. Therefore, some people often do not consider safety standards when riding electric bicycles on the road, and various red light runs are quite common.
In addition, some electric bicycles have relatively high power and fast riding speed. Once there is an accident, there will be casualties.
Therefore, in recent years, the country's attitude towards electric bicycles has been to tighten control. From the very beginning, all electric bicycles were required to be licensed, and in some places, the drivers of electric bicycles were required to go to the certification.
And now it is simply in the way of laws and regulations, and the speed limit of electric bicycles is for safety reasons. The state will set the speed limit of the new electric bicycle, the so-called new national standard electric bicycle, to 25 kilometers per hour, which is also well considered.
Nowadays, the traffic pressure in mainland cities is relatively high, and there are large cities with millions or even tens of millions of people. These cities have a large concentration of e-bikes.
Even electric vehicles and ordinary fuel vehicles, the total number of various vehicles driving on China's roads every day is an astronomical number. This has directly led to a significant increase in the probability and frequency of traffic accidents.
The state needs to find a solution that can avoid traffic accidents at all, and that is to increase restrictions on all types of vehicles. There is a speed limit when driving on the roads in the city, and there is also a speed limit for e-bikes.
According to the relevant regulations, the speed limit of expressways is generally around 110 to 120 kilometers per hour. There are also national highways on first-class roads, which are slightly less navigable, and the speed limit is 80 kilometers per hour.
The speed in the interior of the city is around 35 km/h to 60 km/h. In such cases, the speed limit for some e-bikes is limited to 25 km/h. It's quite normal, you can't let the electric bike run faster than the car!
And everyone rides an electric bicycle for convenience and speed, so it has to run faster than a bicycle. This is the fundamental reason why the country will limit the speed to 25 kilometers per hour.
From a long-term perspective, this new policy pursued by the state is in the interests of the majority of the people. Nowadays, many people have all kinds of complaints about the new regulations issued by the state to limit the speed of electric bicycles to 25 kilometers.
even felt that this was adding to the congestion of the people. It is also because some people are more dependent on electric bicycles in their lives.
3. Many people rely on electric bicycles
Nowadays, many people are dissatisfied with the new regulations introduced by the state, mainly because there are indeed some special groups of people who themselves see electric bicycles as an important tool for their livelihood. One of the most typical is the takeaway brother.
Nowadays, the mainland has a very complete food delivery system, and there are a large number of food delivery workers under food delivery platforms such as Meituan and Ele.me. For these delivery guys, time is money.
Because in order to be able to provide better services to their customers, whether it is platforms such as Meituan and Ele.me, or some stores, they tend to set an instant delivery time. If this delivery time is exceeded, a penalty is required.
At the same time, many customers who are not easy to get along with will also give bad reviews to the delivery staff who deliver food late. Therefore, in order to earn more money and earn more orders, many delivery workers are often more reckless when riding electric bicycles.
Many delivery workers don't even look at the traffic lights when delivering takeaways. As long as you see a gap, you will not hesitate to run a red light.
But now, the state has targeted the speed of the new national standard electric vehicle to 25 kilometers per hour. This is a fatal impact for some delivery workers who have become accustomed to driving fast cars and have been able to earn a lot of money every month by driving fast cars before.
The reduced speed of electric vehicles means that they can deliver fewer orders in the same hour when they deliver food. This will have a direct impact on the income of these people.
Therefore, the state has issued new national standard electric vehicle regulations, and the loss of interests for these delivery workers is the greatest. But the state, of course, knows this, but it is still firmly in place for this new policy.
It is because of the proliferation of electric bicycles, and some people riding electric bicycles do not obey the traffic rules. The harm is so great that the country has no choice.
At the same time, for those takeaway brothers whose interests are directly damaged, they should actually think about it, in order to deliver takeaways, to grab orders, and to make more money, regardless of their physical condition. Even unscrupulous speeding is not only irresponsible for the safety of one's own life, but also causes harm to others.
What if they hit a child or an elderly person on the road while riding? They should also understand that the body is the capital of the revolution. Risking one's own life for income is a very short-sighted act.
Therefore, those takeaway brothers whose interests have been damaged must establish the correct concept. Don't have any scruples just to make money.
It is also believed that with the gradual implementation of the country's new restrictions on electric vehicles, the probability and number of electric bicycle accidents will be significantly reduced. The mainland's traffic safety can also be better guaranteed, and we should have full confidence in this.
The introduction of various policies by the state is also for the overall interests of the broad masses of the people. It may be true that some policies will harm the interests of some groups, but for the sake of safety. It is acceptable that the new policy will harm the interests of some groups, after all, individual interests must give way to group interests.
Therefore, we should actively respond to and support the various policies of the state, and not have a distorted understanding of the national policies. And don't be confrontational and resistant, it's not right.
Epilogue:
Nowadays, if you want to reduce the speed limit of electric bicycles by the state, which will damage the interests of some special groups, major electric bicycle companies should also make some targeted policy adjustments. For example, give more room for trial and error to the delivery staff, and don't let these delivery workers always be in a position of being bullied.
Many delivery workers are already working quite hard, and in order to make money, they have to deliver food in the wind and rain. Their rights and interests should also be protected.
At the same time, I also hope that those compatriots who are used to riding fast cars must pay more attention when riding electric bicycles in the future. Ride when it is safe to do so.
If there is a real safety incident, it will be completely too late to regret it. Whether life is important or time is important, everyone still has to distinguish clearly. If you have a traffic accident in a hurry, isn't it obvious that the gains outweigh the losses?
