Safety seats ensure that children's car safety purchases increase the number of leases

Small child seat refracts traffic safety awareness

In the parenting of Beijing's mother Liao Fan, safety is an unrelenting bottom line, especially in the process of travel, nothing is important for traffic safety.

However, during the three-year childcare process, Liao Fan has been very contradictory about whether he needs safety seats to ensure safety.

Expensive and useless, this is the positioning of the safety seat that Liao Fan was instilled. "I used to think that a child is so small. It must be that the adult is the safest, and he is also worried that the child is not willing to sit. However, one thing makes me afraid of my original judgment."

Let Liao Fan’s fears happen when her daughter is 6 months old. That time, Liao Fan drove, Liao Fan's mother sat in the back row with her children. "When the community door is out, the speed is very slow, and it is estimated to be 5 kilometers per hour. The car just came out of the community door and suddenly pulled out an electric bicycle. I braked urgently. Although it didn't hit, my mother was shocked. The child’s head almost hit the front seat. This is the case at such a slow speed, not to mention the speed of 40 kilometers per hour after the road.” Liao Fan recalled that after this incident, the family members No longer question the role of the safety seat.

After that, Liao Fan bought a safety seat for the child, but the child was not used to it, so that when he got on the bus, he cried. Despite this, Liao Fan forced the child to press on the safety seat every time he drove. "I have seen too many videos of children being driven out of the car, so in order to be safe, no matter how much my daughter resists, I insist on letting her sit in the safety seat." Liao Fan said.

In fact, in recent years, with the further regulation of relevant provisions such as policies and regulations, the public's awareness of travel safety is constantly increasing.

Eliminate foreseeable risks

According to the survey data of “Blue Book of Chinese Children's Road Traffic Safety” (2016), the average occupancy rate of child safety seats in 8 cities including Beijing, Qingdao and Dalian is 41.10%, and the average frequency of use is 80.91%. The chair usage rate is 33.26%.

In sharp contrast, from 2013 to 2014, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of China Center for Disease Control and Prevention launched a survey on the use of child safety seats in Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, with more than 9,000 parents participating. The results showed that only 16% of parents in three regions used child safety seats.

Liang Le, who is a lawyer in Beijing and a mother of two children, told reporters: "We don't have to always analyze why others don't do it, but should pay more attention to 'why do I'. The role of child safety seats. Knowledge and video such as not using child safety seats to harm children in car accidents, don’t need to say more on the Internet."

For this reason, Liang Le and his family have chosen to use the baby safety basket from the birth of the child. "However, we didn't do it at first. After the baby was born, the baby safety basket for online shopping was still on the road. So, on the day of discharge, we were like the majority of car owners, and the parents held the children tightly. Finally, home safely. But I know this is a fluke."

Two months after leaving the hospital, the safety basket arrived. In Liang Le's memory, in the past two months, they have had several experiences of taking their children in a car. In the process of recollection, Liang Le once again used the word “lucky”. She said, "This is a major safety hazard and it is gambling."

Liang Le said this, it is the painful lesson around him. "One of my friends had a minor car accident four years ago. The adults in the same car are fine. Only the children in their hands have a big deal. The child is now paralyzed in high position, except to destroy the healthy body of the child. The family is ruined.” Liang Le said, “The case around is enough to show that if the child does not use the safety seat while riding, the child will be placed in the 'foreseeable risk'. This foreseeable risk only needs I spent more than 800 yuan to buy a baby safety basket, and then install it correctly. Every time I take the child out, I can use it."

Buying rental market changes greatly

Since the arrival of the safety basket, Liang Le has never let his children "gamble". Even if she took her child to Yunnan for vacation two years ago, the car rental company could not provide child safety seat service, and Liang Le also took a past from Beijing. "Of course, I also gave this advice to the car rental company, hoping to provide such services in the future, to provide convenience to parents in need." Liang Le said.

The good news is that such aspiration has become a reality in the past year or two. Liang Le told reporters that many cities now have businesses that rent child safety seats. Such businesses are not only for families who are traveling, but also for many local families.

Through the introduction of Liang Le, the reporter contacted Zhang Hai, who is currently engaged in child safety seat rental business in Qingdao. On WeChat, Zhang Hai opened the door and sent a bill to the reporter: "The cradle-type safety seat, the price of the baby shop is at least 1,000 yuan. The follow-up purchase of seats from 0 to 4 years old, from domestic to imported prices difference It is relatively large, and the average count is about 2,000 yuan. After the child is 4 years old, some children grow fast, and some children will change a safety seat when they are about 3 years old. I have roughly calculated the cost of the light safety seat. , at least 5,000 yuan."

“I did a survey in a newcomer parent WeChat group. In this group of children who are concentrated in the age of 3 months to 10 months, parents who have already purchased a safety seat for their children or are planning to buy a safety seat for their children account for More than 30%, in addition to safety and other requirements, the price has become a key factor for parents to consider." Zhang Hai told reporters, but if you can rent a child safety seat, the money is saved.

According to Zhang Hai, the average family will rent a newborn cradle when the child is born. When the child is 9 months old, go to a safety seat that can be used by children between 9 months and 12 years old. It is a long-term lease of more than 3 years. The rent is around 800 yuan. According to the child's age, height and weight, it can be exchanged for other ages.

“In the beginning, many parents were not at ease. Later, they saw that the new seats were rented out, they were opened on the spot, and then the professors installed them. The parents were relieved.” Zhang Hai said, “With this aspect of safety awareness The improvement, many parents realized that the safety seat is a long-term use of the child, so I feel that I have not tried it, and it is really not good to buy it directly. I decided to rent one for the child first, and try it for a year."

Two years ago, Zhang Hai’s company was just an ordinary child safety seat retail and wholesale company. At the beginning, they promoted safety seats in hospitals, early education institutions, and monthly sub-centers. At the same time, they launched preferential leasing activities. In about three months, they ushered in the “outbreak period” of the leasing business. Now there are nearly 2,000 fixed customers.

While parents are raising their awareness of safety, government agencies are also promoting the popularity of child safety seats. On March 25 this year, Shanghai’s local regulations on child safety seats were officially implemented. According to the regulations, children under the age of 12 cannot be arranged to sit in the co-pilot seat. Children under the age of 4 should take the private car and should have the child safety seat properly equipped. This indicates that public transportation safety awareness is improving.

“ Seven years ago, there were only tens of thousands of child safety seats sold in China; now, the market demand has exceeded one million units per year.” Gao Hesheng, deputy director of the China Automotive Technology and Research Center, said, "Advances from regulations have greatly promoted the safe travel of children by car."

â–¡ Reporter's notes

On March 25 this year, the latest edition of the “Regulations on the Administration of Road Traffic in Shanghai” was implemented. For the first time in Article 34 of Chapter 2, it is mandatory for children under the age of 4 to use a child safety seat in a family car. "When driving a motorized vehicle on a road, there must be no following behavior: "When driving a family passenger car carrying a minor under four years of age, the child safety seat is not equipped or not properly used."

At present, in addition to Shanghai, Shandong and Shenzhen have also written into the local regulations for the mandatory use of safety seats for children under 4 years of age.

In the eyes of many professionals in the field of traffic safety, the positive significance of these local legislations is to ensure the safety of children travelling by car through mandatory legislation.

This is undoubtedly a remarkable achievement in scientific legislation.

On the other hand, the change in the use of child safety seats also reflects the fact that the word “rule of law” is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The rule of law in the whole society consciously respecting the law, learning the law, obeying the law and using it is becoming more and more intense. Because, whether it is from the question about the child safety seat to the change of recognition attitude, or from the changes in the sales and rental market, the society's awareness of children's travel safety is constantly improving. The improvement of security awareness reflects the improvement of the public's awareness of the rule of law from one aspect, because security must be based on respecting law and obeying the law.

The story of a small safety seat tells the scientific legislation and the law-abiding people. This just shows that the rule of law has infiltrated every detail in our lives, and the new picture of ruling the country in full law is being painted with passion.
