Cov tsheb tshiab ntawm kev muag khoom hauv Asmeskas niaj hnub no yog qhov nyab xeeb tshaj plaws thiab qib siab tshaj plaws uas tau ua, tab sis kev tuag ntawm txoj kev xyoo tas los tau mus txog lawv. qib siab tshaj hauv 16 xyoo.
Qhov teeb meem yog complex: Nws yog ib tug ua ke ntawm reckless los yog distracted tsav tsheb, feem ntau yog vim cellphone siv; nce kev muag khoom ntawm cov tsheb thauj khoom thiab SUVs; thiab kev ua tau zoo ntawm cov tsheb, ntawm lwm yam. Ntxiv rau, qhov kev cia siab ntawm kev loj hlob ntawm cov tsheb fais fab, nrog cov roj teeb hnyav thiab cov ntaub ntawv ua haujlwm yuav tsis pab qhov teeb meem mus tom ntej.
"Peb muaj kab lis kev cai tsis sib haum xeeb hauv Asmeskas nyob ib puag ncig lub tsheb," said Michael Brooks, tus thawj coj ntawm Lub Chaw Saib Xyuas Kev Nyab Xeeb Kev Nyab Xeeb, tus neeg siv khoom-kev txhawb nqa tsis muaj txiaj ntsig. "Cov neeg xav tau cov khoom lag luam loj, daim pib loj thiab peb xav ua qhov peb xav tau hauv peb lub tsheb, tab sis tib lub sijhawm, peb tau tua ib leeg ntawm tus nqi (ze li) siab dua li yav dhau los, thiab qee yam xav tau. ua tiav."
Kwv yees li ntawm 42,915 tus neeg tuag nyob rau hauv lub tsheb sib tsoo hauv xyoo 2021, nce 10.5% los ntawm 38,824 tus neeg tuag nyob rau xyoo 2020 thiab tus nqi siab tshaj plaws txij li xyoo 2005, raws li cov ntaub ntawv los ntawm National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, ib feem ntawm Department of Transportation.
Piv rau 2019, cov neeg tuag tau nce 18% - qhov siab tshaj plaws ob xyoos nce txij li xyoo 1946, thaum kev sib tsoo tau nce 37.6% dhau 1944 qib, raws li NHTSA cov ntaub ntawv txheeb xyuas los ntawm CNBC.
US Tus Thawj Saib Xyuas Kev Thauj Mus Los Pete Buttigieg tau hu qhov xwm txheej "kev kub ntxhov ntawm Asmeskas txoj kev uas peb yuav tsum tau hais ua ke," thaum hais txog kev siv zog los ntawm Biden cov thawj coj los thim rov qab txoj kev tuag.
Tab sis tig ib ncig ntawm cov neeg tuag ntawm txoj kev hauv Teb Chaws Asmeskas tsis yog ib qho teeb meem yooj yim los kho.
Rau ib yam, tus saib xyuas kev nyab xeeb NHTSA yog qhov ua tsis tau zoo los txais yuav cov lus qhia tshiab lossis kev cai lij choj. Thiab cov neeg siv tsheb tau yuav tam sim no - suav nrog cov hluav taws xob nrov zuj zus - tau nrawm dua thiab hnyav dua li cov tsheb tam sim no, uas ua rau muaj kev pheej hmoo ntau dua rau cov neeg taug kev thiab cov neeg laus thiab cov tsheb me.
Qhov hnyav thiab kev ua haujlwm
Ob qhov hnyav thiab horsepower ntawm tsheb yog kwv yees yuav tsum nyob rau txhua lub sij hawm siab, raws li Environmental Protection Agency.
Cov lej sau tseg no tshwj xeeb tshaj yog rau cov neeg tawm tswv yim kev nyab xeeb. Brooks tau hais tias "Lub tsheb hnyav dua thiab lub tsheb siab dua, qhov ntau dua nws yuav tua cov neeg taug kev thiab qhov ntau dua nws yuav tsis haum rau lub tsheb me me thiab ua rau muaj kev puas tsuaj loj," Brooks tau hais.
EPA qhia tias qhov nruab nrab horsepower ntawm lub tsheb tau nce tsis tu ncua rau ntau tshaj ib xyoo caum thiab nce ze li ntawm 80% piv nrog rau xyoo 1975. Cov ntaub ntawv ua ntej rau xyoo 2021 tau mus txog qhov nruab nrab ntawm 246 horsepower, nrog rau qee qhov kev ua tau zoo dua qub. topping 700 horsepower los yog ntau tshaj.
Qhov nruab nrab qhov hnyav tau nce, ib yam nkaus thiab kev muag khoom ntawm cov tsheb thauj khoom tau loj hlob nyob rau xyoo tas los no, thiab tau mus txog ntau dua 4,100 phaus hauv xyoo 2021, raws li EPA.
Txawm hais tias cov tsheb loj thiab SUVs tuaj yeem muaj cov nqi khoom kim heev thiab cov cuab yeej siv technology siab, lawv qhov hnyav ntxiv yuav ua rau muaj kev phom sij tshwj xeeb rau cov neeg taug kev. Cov tsheb zoo li no ua rau cov neeg taug kev tuag ntau dua li cov tsheb thiab feem ntau yuav raug ntaus cov neeg taug kev thaum tig, raws li kev tshawb fawb los ntawm Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
"Kev caij tsheb siab dua feem ntau ua rau koj pom ntev dua ntawm txoj kev, tab sis ib qho ntawm cov kev lag luam tawm, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog nyob rau hauv lub tsheb loj, yog qhov tseeb tias muaj ib feem ntawm txoj kev tam sim ntawd nyob rau pem hauv ntej ntawm koj lub tsheb uas dig muag. rau koj, "said David Zuby, tus thawj coj tshawb fawb ntawm Lub Tsev Haujlwm Saib Xyuas Kev Ruaj Ntseg rau Kev Loj Hlob.
NHTSA kwv yees ntau dua 7,300 tus neeg taug kev raug tua los ntawm tsheb tsav hauv xyoo 2021, nce 13% piv rau xyoo dhau los.
Cathy Chase, tus thawj tswj hwm ntawm Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety hais tias "Lub tsheb loj dua, hnyav dua, lawv tuag ntau dua thaum muaj kev sib tsoo, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog cov neeg siv txoj kev yooj yim xws li cov neeg taug kev thiab cov neeg caij tsheb kauj vab," said Cathy Chase, tus thawj tswj hwm ntawm Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety. "Txoj kev tsav tsheb loj dua, hnyav dua yog ua rau muaj kev puas tsuaj rau txhua tus neeg sab nraud ntawm lub tsheb."
Cov tsheb hluav taws xob ua rau lawv tus kheej muaj kev pheej hmoo ntxiv rau US txoj kev. EVs feem ntau hnyav ntau dua li lawv lub cav sib xyaw ua ke nrog cov khoom siv hluav taws xob vim yog qhov hnyav ntawm lawv cov roj teeb. Hloov pauv, txawm li cas los xij, ntau lub EVs tshiab tuaj nrog cov thev naus laus zis tshiab tshaj plaws.
Qhov kev ua tau zoo kuj tseem siab dua hauv ntau EVs. Piv txwv li, tshaj 9,000-phaus Hummer EV, uas yog ntau tshaj ob npaug ntawm qhov hnyav ntawm lub tsheb nruab nrab, Watts rau Kev ywj pheej, lossis WTF, hom uas tso lub tsheb 0-60 mph hauv li peb vib nas this. Lub feature tuaj yeem siv nyob qhov twg. Qhov ntawd yog lub sijhawm acceleration yav dhau los tshwj xeeb rau cov tsheb kis las.
Thiab cov kws paub txog kev nyab xeeb tseem tab tom kawm seb EVs ntes hluav taws ntau dua lossis tsawg dua feem ntau tshaj li cov tsheb tsoos.
Hloov tus cwj pwm
Kev tshawb fawb qhia tias nws tsis yog cov tsheb uas hloov pauv xwb.
Cov neeg Amelikas sib sau ua ke tsav tsheb tsawg tshaj plaws nyob rau hauv 18 xyoo hauv 2020 thaum tus kabmob coronavirus txwv kev mus ncig, raws li Federal Highway Administration.
Ntau tus xav tias tsawg dua mais tsav tsheb yuav txhais tau tias muaj kev sib tsoo tsawg dua. Tab sis qhov tseeb, cov neeg tsav tsheb tau saib xyuas ntau dua thiab tsis quav ntsej, thiab cov neeg tuag tau nce, raws li cov neeg ua haujlwm thiab tsoomfwv cov ntaub ntawv.
Ib yam li ntawd rau xyoo 2021, cov neeg tuag ntau dua tau hais txog qhov nce ntawm 325 billion mais kev tsav tsheb, lossis kwv yees li 11.2%, piv nrog 2020, raws li cov ntaub ntawv ua ntej tshaj tawm los ntawm FHA.
Txawm hais tias muaj cov mais ntxiv mus, cov neeg tuag raws li cov mais uas tau tsav tsheb tseem nyob li qub txij xyoo 2020. Kev kwv yees tau muab cov neeg tuag rau xyoo 2021 ntawm 1.33 tus neeg tuag rau 100 lab lub tsheb kauj vab, piv nrog 1.34 tus neeg tuag xyoo dhau los.
Cov kws tshaj lij hais tias kom thim rov qab txoj kev tuag yuav tsum muaj kev sib koom ua ke ntawm kev tswj hwm thiab kev coj tus cwj pwm hloov.
Kev hloov pauv yooj yim raws li tus neeg tsav tsheb, xws li taug kev hauv qhov qis qis lossis buckling, tuaj yeem pab tau. NHTSA tshaj tawm cov neeg tuag ntawm cov neeg nyob tsis muaj kev txwv tau nce ze li 21% txij li xyoo 2019.
"Nws zoo li qhov tseem ceeb ntawm cov neeg tuag coob coob no yog tus cwj pwm coj zoo, tab sis qhov ntawd tsis tau txhais hais tias peb tsis tuaj yeem txwv nws. Peb tsuas yog yuav tsum txaus siab, ”Brooks hais.
Cov neeg tawm tswv yim txog kev nyab xeeb hauv tsheb kuj hais tias tus qauv tsim cov thev naus laus zis tshiab xws li tsis siv neeg nres thaum muaj xwm ceev thiab kev saib xyuas qhov muag tsis pom kev tuaj yeem pab txo qis kev sib tsoo thiab cov neeg tuag. Feem ntau ntawm cov neeg tuag yog cov tsheb uas muaj hnub nyoog 10 xyoo lossis tshaj saud thiab tsis tau nruab nrog cov thev naus laus zis tshiab tshaj plaws.
"Nws yuav siv sij hawm ib pliag rau cov tsheb nrog cov thev naus laus zis tshiab kom nkag mus rau cov pej xeem," Chase hais. "Yog vim li cas nws tseem ceeb heev uas yuav tsum muaj cov thev naus laus zis no suav nrog cov khoom siv hauv cov tsheb tshiab, thiab tsis yog cov kev xaiv thiab cov tsheb siab dua, raws li tam sim no."
