Have you ever met a "light assassin"?
Many neighbors reflected
Go out at night
Some e-bikes are often encountered
The lights are very dazzling
Originally
These electric bikes
Headlights have been added or modified
Lawyer Reminder:
It is illegal to modify the lights of electric bicycles
01
Electric bikes are equipped with strong lights
Many people were "dazzled"
On the evening of the 15th
The reporter was on Tiyu East Road and Xingang Middle Road
A little investigation was done
Within 10 minutes
Passing the electric bike in front of the reporter
There are more than 50 vehicles
At least more than 10 vehicles
Lights were added to the front of the car
In addition to the original headlights
The owner of the car is on the left and right sides of the headlights
A strong light was added to each
When all the lights are on
The brightness of the light is very intense
An electric bicycle shop owner told reporters
Modified car owners generally ask for modified headlights
Mainly when driving at night
The lights are not bright enough
"[After the modification] compared to before, the brightness will be more than half the previous one, which used to be about 30 watts, and [after the modification] it will be at least between 65 watts and 120 watts."
Some motor vehicle owners reflected
These modified e-bikes
Brightness and range of lights
are more than normal motor vehicles
It makes the driver's eyes very uncomfortable
It brings great security risks
When driving at night
They have all been used by the headlights of e-bikes
"Dazzling"
"He doesn't turn off the lights until he shines on you, and he keeps shining them."
Some neighbors said:
"We sometimes walk,
The electric bicycle drove head-on,
The lights are dazzling,
One shot makes it impossible to see things clearly. “
02
It is illegal to modify the lights of electric bicycles
Continental
Safety Technical Specifications for Electric Bicycles
Light brightness values for e-bikes
It is stipulated in relevant technical standards
The lawyer said that according to Article 18 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, the dimensions, mass, brakes, bells and night reflective devices of non-motor vehicles shall comply with the safety technical standards for non-motor vehicles.
"The light device of the electric bicycle belongs to the scope of the night reflective device, and the brightness of the lamp must meet the relevant national technical standards, and it is not allowed to exceed the standard, otherwise it will be suspected of violating the law, and if it is found, it may face the penalty of restoring the electric bicycle to its original appearance, and (bearing) the penalty consequences of the corresponding fine."

What are the dangers of illegal modification of electric bikes?
After the illegal modification of the electric bike
It will greatly increase the driving safety risk
and the probability of spontaneous combustion and deflagration of the vehicle
Seriously endangers road traffic safety
furthermore
Illegally modified cars are on the road
In the event of a traffic accident
may face
A situation where the insurance company does not make a claim
In addition to modifying the lights
These modifications are also dangerous!!
Speeding is dangerous and uncontrollable
The modification of the electric bicycle will lead to the change of the weight of the whole vehicle, thereby affecting the handling performance and braking performance, after the modification of the speed limit, the speeding is very easy to lose control, traffic accidents.
Wiring damage, ignition explosion
After the modification of the electric bicycle battery, the terminal and so on are often damaged, resulting in the acceleration of the corrosion of the cable wiring and disconnection, if the wire is buckled at will at this time, the ignition will ignite the hydrogen gas gathered inside the battery when charging, resulting in an explosion.
Alteration of the line, short circuit and spontaneous combustion
The first thing that changes when retrofitting an electric vehicle is the circuit. If the original thin wire needs to pass through a large current, the circuit will be unstable, and the electric vehicle is prone to short circuit during charging or driving, which will cause spontaneous combustion.
The canopy is covered, and accidents are prone to occur
Installing a canopy or parasol on an electric bicycle will block the line of sight and virtually increase the risk factor of the electric bicycle on the road; At the same time, the wind resistance of the vehicle is increased, and the windy weather encountered during the driving process can easily cause the vehicle to lose its balance and cause traffic accidents.
