Njengoba Ubhadane Luqhubeka, Kudingeka Ukwanda Kokuphepha Kwe-E-Scooter Kanye Ne-E-Bike

Umbiko omusha sha we-Governors Freeway Security Affiliation ubukeka ufana nokuthi kukhuphuka kanjani ukusetshenziswa kwangasese … [+] izinto zobuchwepheshe zokuhamba zigqamise isidingo sezinhlelo ezahlukahlukene zokuphepha.

Ukubambisana Kwezokuphepha Kwezokuphathwa Kombuso

Amabhayisikili kagesi (ama-e-bikes), ama-scooter kagesi (ama-e-scooter), ama-skateboards anezimoto kanye namagajethi amancane ahlukile ezokuthutha abone isikejana esikhulu esisetshenziswa emigwaqweni nasezindleleni zomgwaqo esizweni sonke kule minyaka eyishumi eyedlule, nangesizathu ukuthi ubhadane lweCovid-19, ukudluliswa kokuncika kakhulu ekuhambeni komphakathi kanye nokwengeziwe kuzinyathelo zokuqhamuka komphakathi kususe leyo nqubekelaphambili.

Njengamanje, lezi zindlela zokuhamba, ezivame ukubizwa ngokuthi yi-micromobility futhi kwesinye isikhathi zihamba ngesivinini esincane, isisindo esincane futhi kancane noma ezinenjini ngokuphelele, zithandwa kakhulu kunanini ngaphambili, kepha "indlela yokubamba ukuphepha" yenza okuncane ukuqapha amakhasimende, ngokususelwa umbiko omusha owethulwe ngenyanga yokugcina evela kwi-Governors Highway Safety Association, iqembu elingenzi nzuzo elimele izindawo zokusebenza zomgwaqo zokuphepha komgwaqo.

"Amagajethi we-Micromobility, ngamunye abelwe futhi aphethwe ngabanikazi, akhona lapha ukuhlala futhi kufanele senze okungeziwe ukuqinisekisa ukuthi zisebenza ngokuphepha," kusho uJonathan Adkins, umqondisi we-govt wenhlangano, okukhulunywe ngayo emaphephandabeni. “Ukuqonda nokubhekana nokuncipha kokuncipha kwemvelo: Isiphazamisi Esisha Sezokuhamba,” kugqamise izinselelo zokuvikela ezibangelwa ukusetshenziswa okuphezulu kwamagadget okuhamba kwangasese nemizamo yamazwe nezindawo zokuyisingatha.

Njengamanje, izindlela ezabelwana ngazo zokunciphisa amandla omzimba zikhona ezifundeni ezingama-47 naseWashington, DC, futhi ukusetshenziswa kulindeleke ukuthi kuqhubeke ukuthuthuka, kusho umbiko. Izinhlobonhlobo zohambo kuzo zikhuphuke zaya ezigidini ezingama-84 ngo-2018, okuphindwe kabili inani kusuka ezinyangeni eziyi-12 zangaphambilini, ezikhuphule amathuba okuba nezingozi. Izibhedlela zibike izigaxa eziphindwe kathathu ezingozini ze-e-scooter nokwamukelwa ezibhedlela, abacwaningi basho, bathi yize izingozi eziningi ze-scooter zenzeka ngemuva kokuwa noma ukushayisana nengqalasizinda, "ukuxhumana phakathi kwabagibeli bezithuthuthu nezimoto kuvame ukubulala."

Kokubulawa kwabantu abangama-22 e-scooter okwenzeke e-america kusukela ngo-2018, iningi lezimoto ezithintekayo, nezingozi ezihlobene ne-e-bike cishe kathathu zijwayele ukuba yimiphumela yokushayiswa yimoto futhi ngokweqile ngokwanele ukudinga ukulaliswa esibhedlela. Kudingeka ukucubungula okwengeziwe, umbiko uvumile, ekusakazekeni kwezindawo, kanye nokwengamela. Isibonelo, imithetho iyashintshashintsha isuka kuhulumeni iye kuhulumeni kanye / noma endaweni iye endaweni, okwenza kube nzima kubagibeli namakhasimende ahlukene emigwaqweni emikhulu ukwazi ukuthi kuvunyelwe ini nokuthi izikhulu zokuphoqelela umthetho zisingathe izindlela zokuziphatha ezingaphephile.

Ukwaziswa okunezinhlobonhlobo, ukufundwa kwezikole, izicelo zezokuphepha, ukuphoqelelwa kanye nokuxhaswa ngengqalasizinda sekubuye kwachazwa njengokufuna ukuthuthukiswa.

Umbiko unikeze izibonelo zezindawo ezithathe izinyathelo ezakhayo zokubhekana nezinselelo zokuphepha, njengokuvinjelwa komgwaqo uma kunemizila yamabhayisikili evikelwe, ukuvala imigwaqo yezimoto ukuvumela abahamba ngezinyawo, abagibeli bamabhayisikili kanye nabagibeli bemishini yokuhamba abazimele, nokusheshisa imizamo yokubeka kuzindawo eziluhlaza kanye nengqalasizinda ehlukile yamabhayisikili.

Amaphuzu avelele ahlukile:

• I-Atlanta, eGa. Yethule imizamo eminingi, kanye nokwenza imininingwane yokusiza amaphoyisa ngokuqinisa kanye nemizamo yokubika yokuphahlazeka.
• IBoise, i-Idaho ichibiyele umthetho wayo we-e-scooter kubagibeli abahamba kancane ezindaweni ezigcwele futhi banikeze izinombolo zomazisi kuyo yonke imishini enika umphakathi jikelele ukubika abagibeli abanobudedengu.
• ISanta Monica, eCalif. Idinga ukuthi abahlinzeki basebenzise i-geofencing ukuphatha izingqinamba zokupaka, ukuphepha kanye nokusetshenziswa ngokweqile ngokusungula indawo yokuvala ukusebenza ngasolwandle ukuze kwehliswe futhi ekugcineni kumiswe amagajethi. Imizamo yokuphoqelelwa kanye neyokufundwa ngamaphoyisa omdabu kuholele ekwehleni okukhulu ekuziphatheni okungaphephile, ngokususelwa embikweni, njengokungadlali isigqoko sokuzivikela, ukushayela eceleni komgwaqo nokusebenzisa amalambu ansomi.

"Kumele siphakamise ukwazi phakathi kwabashayeli bezimoto, abahamba ngezinyawo nokuphoqelelwa komthetho maqondana nemihlahlandlela yomgwaqo onguthelawayeka wezinto ezincane, futhi sithathe isinyathelo sokwenza ngcono imihlahlandlela yezomthetho, ingqalasizinda nezindlela zolwazi zokushaya uhlobo oluthile lokuhamba," kusho u-Adkins.
