April 2, 2018, around 10 pm that day. At the intersection of Qianwang Street and Jiangqiao Road in Jincheng Street, an electric bicycle ran a red light on the road and hit the front of the white car directly. It was hit on the spot and overturned. During the accident handling, the traffic police determined that it was a traffic accident caused by the electric bicycle driver Fang's violation of traffic rules. Therefore, Fang should bear all responsibility.
According to statistics from the transportation department, since 2017, there have been 54,495 illegal electric bicycles in the range of Lin'an District , an increase of 25.17% year-on-year. Moreover, in Lin'an, the number of deaths in traffic accidents involving electric bicycles accounts for more than 50% of traffic accidents every year, and 75% of fires caused by electric bicycles occur during charging. It can be seen that the tragedy and crisis caused by electric bicycles are around us. It is urgent to start standardized management of electric bicycles.
"There are many traffic accidents for electric bicycles now, and many people do not understand traffic regulations and ride randomly." Citizens are very worried about the hidden dangers of electric bicycles. The problems exposed by electric bicycles in terms of traffic, fire protection, anti-theft, etc. cannot be underestimated. In order to ensure the safety of people's lives and property, Lin'an District has included the launch of standardized management of electric bicycles as one of the ten practical matters of the district government for people's livelihood in 2018.
On April 20, 2018, the Lin'an District Electric Bicycle Industry Chamber of Commerce was officially established. At this meeting, the "Regulations of the Electric Bicycle Industry Chamber of Commerce in Lin'an District, Hangzhou City" and the "Electric Bicycle Industry Self-Discipline Convention" were passed, and the first Chamber of Commerce president, vice president, secretary-general, deputy secretary-general, etc. were elected to carry out unified leadership and standardized management.
Lin'an District Government has formulated a publicity and education film for electric bicycle traffic safety in Lin'an District, which carved the electric vehicle accident cases around you into CDs, and then broadcasted the publicity at the electric vehicle sales points, buildings and TV stations. At the same time, the local traffic police in Lin'an District have also distributed the "Lin'an District Electric Bicycle Standardized Management Manual" in various places in Lin'an. The manual contains insurance, traffic violations and other content, which is conducive to citizens' deepening their understanding and publicity of common knowledge of communication.
At present, the District Market Supervision Bureau has conducted a dragnet inspection on the selling points of all electric bicycles in its jurisdiction. Normal electric bicycles should meet the requirements of a maximum speed of no more than 25 kilometers per hour, a vehicle mass of no more than 55 kilograms, and a power of no more than 400 watts. "As merchants, we are not going to buy over-standard cars now. We cooperate with the regulations to sell national standard cars, and we also actively promote the benefits of national standard cars to buyers." said Du Hongfa, an electric vehicle seller.
It is understood that in the next Lin'an District will use Gaohong Town as a pilot to provide one-stop services such as vehicle registration, insurance, registration and registration for electric bicycles. Before registering and registering, the vehicle must go through four aspects: study area, photography area, inspection area and acceptance of certificates to successfully register. In addition, Lin'an District Insurance Company has also introduced a series of people-friendly policies, with guarantee measures in terms of personnel injury and vehicle loss. "If we want to manage it in a unified manner and take insurance, we will all support it." Citizens said that electric bicycles need to be managed.
In addition, there are high-power sockets that do not meet the specifications for communities and corridors in Lin'an District, which is actually a very serious safety hazard. Smart charging piles are built in most places in Lin'an, so citizens can recharge and charge through WeChat scan, and there are also complete monitoring facilities in the local area. Therefore, charging in smart charging piles is both safe and convenient, and can greatly reduce the occurrence of fires.
Next, Lin'an District will encode electric bicycles, insure vehicle and sell license plates.Shen Weinan, head of the Product Quality Section of the District Market Supervision Bureau, said that according to the unified deployment of the district, we will study the standards for entering the market of electric bicycles, further standardize stores, cars and people, strictly manage the source, and further implement the main responsibilities of sales units. At the same time, we will also increase market supervision and management based on the current sales status of electric bicycles and crack down on the sales of electric bicycles that do not meet the national standards. At the same time, we also remind the general public to purchase electric bicycles that meet the national standards and protect their legitimate rights and interests.
