A glimpse of foreign school buses

United States: Square yellow van buses are driving on expressways in major cities in the United States. As soon as the car door is opened, a red sign with the words "Stop" will automatically extend, and at the same time, a railing with a length exceeding 1 m will be "changed" from the right front. This is the most privileged school bus in America. As long as it is slightly deformed, the car behind it must stop. If you overtake rashly, you will not only be fined, but also have your driver's license revoked. American school buses have priority right of way, and all vehicles should consciously avoid it, even the president's "car" is no exception. It can be said that the "treatment" of school buses is even better than ambulances and fire engines.

Japan: Kindergartens and primary schools in Japan clearly stipulate that the school bus must be accompanied by two teachers in addition to the driver. Sometimes it's a life teacher at school, and sometimes it's a volunteer parent who helps take care of the children. When getting on the bus, the teacher must first confirm the number of people and send them to the bus, and finally get on the bus; When getting off the bus, the teacher should come down first, then count the number of people, help them out one by one and give them to the parents. In case of emergency, such as being late, even if it is 1 minute, the teacher should send a message to inform parents to avoid parents' worry and let them go out to pick up their children a few minutes later.

Australia: School bus drivers have received professional training on how to deal with children and medical first aid before taking up their posts. At the same time, they must also abide by the 37 "must" and "cannot" rules formulated by SBS. These include ensuring that children have seats when the vehicle is driving; Do not drink alcohol within 8 hours before driving; If you need to take drugs, you must show SBS the authoritative certificate that "taking this drug will not affect the driver's behavioral ability".

Australian school bus contractors must strictly manage themselves and the drivers under their jurisdiction, ensure that they all have qualification certificates for children-related work, and that they have not expired or been revoked, and keep abreast of whether drivers have bad hobbies or criminal records. Otherwise, once discovered by SBS, the contractor will either be fined 60,000 US dollars (about 380,000 yuan) or sentenced to five years' imprisonment.

Germany: The school bus is provided by a special transportation company. The school bus must have a stop, the stop sign must be clearly identifiable, and it should be parked in the designated parking space. When entering and leaving the station, the school bus should be clearly illuminated, and the rest of the vehicles should not surpass the school bus at this time; In addition, parents are also required to let their children have enough time to catch the bus on the road to prevent accidents caused by catching the school bus. In addition, it is also stipulated that children are not allowed to play in the car, not to eat, and not to bring glass bottles into the car to avoid breaking and hurting people.

Canada: After the school bus stops, a yellow traffic sign pole with a length of about 1 m extends forward from the front of the car, indicating that it is not allowed to approach; From the side of the school bus, another traffic sign pole extends horizontally, which reads "Stop" to warn other vehicles to stop. In many states, overtaking the school bus is against the traffic rules and will be fined and deducted.

Investigation on School Bus Accidents in Gansu Province

Gansu school bus accident handling results: the driver was suspected of traffic accidents and was criminally detained by the public security organs; The chairman of Little Doctor Kindergarten was criminally detained by the public security organ for being suspected of a major accident.

The following public officials were suspended for investigation: two deputy heads of Zhengning County, the director of the county education bureau and the captain of the county traffic police team.

There are five reasons for the accident analyzed by Zhengning County Government: (1) The driver of the school bus has a weak sense of safety, which is seriously illegal and overloaded, and the left lane is speeding and retrograde; Second, kindergartens privately modify vehicles to escape supervision, and 9 vehicles are limited to no seats; Third, Li Jungang, the chairman of Little Doctor Kindergarten, has a weak sense of safety responsibility. He only arranged four school buses for 737 students under his jurisdiction, failing to fulfill the responsibility of the first responsible person; Fourth, due to the foggy weather, truck and school bus drivers failed to deal with emergencies; Fifth, the supervision of education and traffic police departments is weak.

Question 1: When the school bus is seriously overloaded, where are the overload inspectors? Why didn't you find it?

Question 2: The unauthorized modification of vehicles actually escaped supervision. Where was the person in charge of supervising the vehicle at that time?

Question 3: The supervision of the traffic police department of public security is weak, and it is only the punishment of dismissal. Can it deter dereliction of duty? Obviously, Qingyang's handling of this matter is suspected of avoiding the importance.

The case should be investigated in different places to restore the truth of the accident. The case-handling organs in Qingyang area should be avoided. What the people want is not to find a few scapegoats, withdraw a few people, and continue to be officials in different places in a few years, but that the tragedy will not repeat itself.

Gansu school bus accident highlights five major problems to be solved urgently.

First, who will be responsible for the safety supervision of school buses?

China's first compulsory national standard "Safety Technical Requirements for Primary School Bus" was officially implemented on July 1 last year. Although there are "hardware" rules, there are still many problems in the "software" for rule implementation and supervision. Driven by interests, transforming scrapped cars, assembled cars and agricultural vehicles into "school buses" directly endangers children's lives. How to thoroughly clean up these dangerous school buses? Who is responsible for school bus safety and who will supervise it?

Second, the number of compliant school buses cannot keep up with the demand. Who will pay the bill and manage the gap?

At present, the government of China has not invested enough in education. The education department tries to solve the school bus problem by means of market economy. It is helpless to contract the school bus to individuals or relevant departments, invest a small amount of money, most of which will be borne by the parents of children who take the school bus, and maintain the operation of the school bus with the profits generated. The marketization of school buses inevitably brings security risks. The school bus should be completely paid by the government, restore the public welfare nature of the school bus, and incorporate the standardized school bus construction into the public service system, instead of handing it over to the market for market-oriented operation.

Third, there is a lack of school bus privilege legislation. Should we legislate?

In the United States, the requirements of school bus configuration are almost harsh, and its standard is higher than that of public vehicles with the same standard. In terms of management, school buses are sometimes even better than ambulances and fire engines. The school bus should also be given privileges to ensure the safety of students getting on and off and driving the school bus.

Fourth, who will make a safe school bus?

American school buses must be made by professional manufacturers, with high quality and low price, and are known as "the facilities of passenger cars and the skeleton of freight cars". In June 2006, in the capital of Indiana, a Hummer, which is famous for its strength, hit a driverless school bus parked on the side of the road. As a result, half of the Hummer was broken, but the school bus was safe and sound. Although it is unrealistic to import all school buses from the United States, China is now a big automobile producer, and the state should seriously implement the school bus production and safety issues.

Fifth, the quality of the school bus driver, who can drive the school bus?

The driver who caused the traffic accident actually drove in the opposite direction. As a driver, quality is a big problem. American school bus drivers are specially selected professional drivers, mostly women, because women are more careful than men. Relevant laws and regulations also stipulate that drivers who have more than three tickets within four years are not qualified to drive school buses. It is not easy to be a school bus driver in Canada. First of all, you must meet the routine requirements of being a driver, such as having more than 3 years' driving experience, passing the inspection of no criminal record by the judicial organs, and passing the strict alcohol and drug testing by the government drug testing department. There are also some more detailed regulations, such as having experience in community service related to children, being willing to serve children, liking and being able to communicate well with children. In addition, you must complete professional school bus driver training and pass the exam. Only by strictly demanding school bus drivers can we reduce the occurrence of car accidents.

I hope that the "safe school bus" will become a hot spot in the "two sessions" next year.

The kindergarten school bus accident in Zhengning County, Gansu Province once again stung people's hearts. Although two deputy heads of Zhengning County have been suspended, although the chairman of the kindergarten involved has been detained, it has not helped the deceased.

From a painful experience, school bus safety is once again in front of us. Facing the hidden dangers of school bus safety, the voice of media and the public calling for "safe school bus" resounded through the sky. How to prevent the tragedy from happening again? How can we really make up for it? How to turn strong public opinion into reality? These problems need to be solved urgently.

From the institutional point of view, the upcoming National "two sessions" and local "two sessions" at the beginning of the year are the most formal occasions to discuss and solve school bus safety problems. Therefore, NPC deputies and CPPCC members at all levels should listen to the people's voices and convey them to governments at all levels to solve the school bus safety problem.

From the feasibility of solving the school bus safety problem, the most critical question is "where does the money come from", but this is by no means the real problem. In May this year, it was reported that Deqing County, Zhejiang Province invested 20 million yuan to equip local schools with 14 American school buses with high safety factor. It is also reported that the amount of buses purchased by governments at all levels in China last year was as high as 80 billion yuan. To put it simply, 56,000 American school buses can be equipped in a year with the funds purchased by the national government. If the minimum number of school buses that meet the national standards is 400,000, 80 billion yuan can be equipped with 200,000 school buses. For the 400,000 primary and secondary schools and 1.4 million kindergartens in China, it will take several years to solve the school bus safety problem.

In any case, the widespread problem of school bus safety makes all "popular projects" and "people's livelihood projects" look extremely pale. Parents all over the world should ask themselves: if we can't ensure the safety of our children, what's the point of everything we do? Therefore, I hope that the "safe school bus" will become the hot spot of the "two sessions" and that the safety of the school bus will no longer make us feel pain.

Watch out for the school bus

Another major school bus safety accident, 19 young lives disappeared instantly, which made people feel sad.

In recent years, school bus accidents have occurred frequently, and most of these tragedies occurred in suburbs or towns. What makes "illegal school bus" the choice of rural students?

Previously, many people called on the government to attach importance to children's school buses as much as official cars. A van carrying 9 people and 64 people, and a tattered "three-wheeled" school bus killed dozens of children, which undoubtedly made the whole society heartache. When the whole society is paying attention to the "children's school bus", the news of a "official car" has attracted the public's attention. State Taxation Administration of The People's Republic of China, together with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Finance, revised the new Administrative Measures for the Use of Official Vehicles of Party and Government Organs, stipulating that the exhaust volume of official vehicles for ministerial officials should not be higher than 2.5 liters and 350,000 yuan, and that for deputy ministerial officials should not be higher than 2.5 liters and 300,000 yuan. The exhaust volume of general official vehicles should be 1.8 liters and 65,

Although in the new scheme, the price of some leaders' cars has dropped by as much as 654.38+10,000 yuan, compared with the "children's school bus", it is still quite luxurious and safe. All along, the "official car" has become more and more upscale, while the "children's school bus" is still "frugal", and even the risk factor is getting higher and higher.

The "children's school bus" carries the future of the country and the hope of the nation. In order to ensure the safety of the school bus, we should first give the school bus certain privileges, such as setting special routes and not catching up casually like foreign countries. At the same time, just like "official vehicles", government funds need to be fully tilted to maintain the "public welfare attribute" of school buses. After all, under the current domestic economic conditions, it is unrealistic to make a profit with school buses, and the government urgently needs financial support. Finally, it is necessary to clarify the manufacturing, management and business model of school buses in legal form to ensure the safety of school buses.
