It ’s good to take a taxi or take a bus, but I do n’t even see the safety seat
　　.

　　A reporter survey found that whether it is renting a car, taking a taxi or taking a bus, it is difficult to find a safety seat specifically provided for children. The provision rate of safety seats in private cars in Beijing is still less than 40%. Mainstream. " Many experts have proposed that the mandatory use of child safety seats should be incorporated into the relevant national laws such as the "Law on the Protection of Minors" to protect children's rights to life and health.

　　The bus utilization rate has been demolished long ago

　　As early as around 2008, there were safety seats specially equipped for children on some bus routes in Beijing. These seats are generally located behind the driver's seat or the special seat for the elderly, sick and disabled. After many years, are these seats still there? Recently, reporters have not found any safety seats when taking multiple buses at random. Parents who take children with younger children are holding their children in adult seats.

　　On a bus No. 691, a mother hugged her son and sat on the "special seat" with a red backrest. I saw her holding the child in her left hand and holding the railing on the front seat baffle in her right hand. When she started, she would clench her hands tighter, fearing she might fall. "Bringing children in the car is a worrying thing." The mother told reporters that although the speed of the urban line was not fast, it was inevitable that there would be unexpected situations. Once the driver braked to avoid the suddenly appearing electric car. Seat back.

　　Why is the safety seat on the bus installed and removed? The customer service staff of Beijing Transit told reporters that child safety seats had been installed on the rapid transit and other lines in the early years, but the actual utilization rate was not high. "This kind of seat is cloth-covered. Sit down. "The buses that have been replaced in recent years are all factory-configured and have not been specifically designed to place child safety seats.

　　There are also no special seats for children in subway cars. "Because the subway is not affected by ground road conditions, the driving process is relatively stable, and parents can easily take their children without accidents," a subway staff member said.

　　None of the 20 rental car stores provide safety seats

　　In the early summer, there are more and more families planning to drive to the suburbs and renting a car has become the first choice for many car-free families. However, some parents find it difficult to rent a car with safety seats.

　　The reporter recently dialed 20 car rental companies in Beijing, such as Shenzhou Car Rental and Yihai Car Rental, but none of them can provide child safety seats. The staff of Yihe Car Rental Sanyuanqiao Store introduced that the company had a batch of child safety seats a long time ago, but the model is only one type, which is only suitable for babies aged 4 or 5 years old, and the number is not much. A staff member of the company's Jinsong store said, "I haven't seen a safety seat in a long time, it should be offline." Child safety seats are not available in every store, and can only be asked by customers from store to store.

　　A reporter's investigation found that child car seats could not be found in airports or train stations where car rental orders were frequent. "All stores in Beijing do not have safety seats. You can try the rental platform and rent a safety seat and deliver it to the store." The staff of Shenzhou Car Rental Capital Airport Store said. The staff of the company ’s Beijing South Railway Station store recalled: “Three or four years ago, I had a batch of old-fashioned safety seats, and not many people used them. Later, the company did not buy new ones.” Many staff members told reporters that For families with children renting a car, the majority of the children are still holding the car.

　　Taxi can only hold the child in the back row

　　Car rental companies can hardly find traces of safety seats. What about taxis and online car rentals? Outside the East Gate of Beijing Children's Hospital, many parents who attended the clinic waited at the door with their children. But whether it is an ordinary taxi with a beckoning stop or an online car-hailing called through an online platform, during a period of time observed by reporters, no car is equipped with a child safety seat, and parents are holding the child in the back row .

　　A two-and-a-half-year-old mother told reporters that she usually calls a car with better condition and better service when she takes her child out, but even a car that costs more is not equipped with a child safety seat. "My boy is more naughty. Sitting in the back row is always turbulent. Every time he is afraid of a sudden brake, he will run from the back row to the front row. "

　　The reporter dialed 96103 on the Beijing taxi e-call platform, and the customer service staff told the reporter that none of the company's taxis currently has child safety seats. The customer service staff of Shouqi also told reporters that although the Baoma car was launched during the epidemic, the main service target is pregnant women and there is no safety seat service for children.

　　"It is difficult to think about how to equip a taxi with a safety seat." A taxi driver told reporters that if a safety seat is set, it will affect the use of normal seats. Whether the seat of three people can be packed into two people is a problem. "Even if the seat is usually placed in the trunk, it will affect the space of the trunk. What if someone encounters someone with luggage?"

　　The Didi Li Orange business car can provide baby car service, but there are many restrictions. If the safety seat can meet the needs of children from 1 to 12 years old, the user will be charged an additional 15 yuan on the basis of the normal billing of the order. The reporter's experience found that in addition to higher charges, due to the relatively small number of vehicles equipped with child seats, it is not easy to succeed even when calling a car. Customer service recommends that you make an appointment in advance when choosing this type of car. Restrictions are not cost-effective for short distance travel.

　　Private car home equipment rate is less than 40%

　　After many years of appeals, the rate of child car seats for private cars has increased, but even in Beijing, where the rate is highest, this number is only 38.7%. At a "Concern about Children's Car Safety Cloud Seminar" organized by the People's Daily Health Client last week, Zhou Wenhui, director of the Vehicle Safety Research Center of the Road Traffic Safety Research Center of the Ministry of Public Security, pointed out that children died as a result of traffic accidents. The downward trend, but the total is still not small, and is particularly serious on holidays. Among them, the failure to use child safety seats and other safety protection devices when traveling by car is the main reason for aggravating children's road traffic injuries.

　　According to Zhou Wenhui, the survey found that the child safety seats are equipped with a low rate, and the top three reasons are: children are reluctant to sit in safety seats, travel distance is too close, and there is not enough space in the car. Many parents told reporters with their own experience that the child cried as soon as he sat in the safety seat, and the parents gave up the use as soon as they felt soft, and did not develop good habits from an early age.

　　The survey also shows that the child safety seat deployment rate has a strong correlation with cognition, and the highest rate is for families with parents who have a doctorate degree or higher, at 40.5%. It is also important to note that the child safety seats have a poor equipping rate, with the equipping rate from 0 to 4 years old being 18.4%, and the locating rate from 5 to 12 years old dropping to 16.9%.

　　Child safety seats urgently need national level legislation

　　Fang Dan, Road Safety and Injury Prevention Officer, World Health Organization Representative Office in China, said, "In the event of a vehicle collision, the correct use of restraints such as child safety seats can significantly reduce the risk of death for infant passengers." Studies have shown that the correct use of children The safety seat can reduce the possibility of fatal injury for infants under 1 year old by 71%, the possibility of fatal injury for children aged 1 to 4 years by 54%, and the possibility of fatal injury for children aged 4 to 7 years by 59%.

　　At present, China has Shenzhen, Shanghai, Shandong, Inner Mongolia and other regions that have issued local regulations that require children under 4 years old or infants to be equipped with and correctly use child safety seats when traveling in family passenger cars. Among them, Shenzhen, Guangxi, Inner Mongolia and Shanghai Other places have introduced punitive measures, but there is no relevant legislation at the national level.

　　"The Minor Protection Law and the Road Traffic Safety Law have not yet mandated the use of child safety seats, but road traffic safety is related to the child ’s right to life and health and should be highly concerned. Now it is necessary for China to consider including it in national legislation Level. "Tong Lihua, director of the Beijing Youth Legal Aid and Research Center, pointed out that at the time when China's" Minor Protection Law "was amended, this provided an opportunity for child safety seats to be officially incorporated into national legislation. It is understood that many European countries currently stipulate that safety seats must be used under the age of 12 or within a height of 1.35 meters.

　　Traveling companies should fulfill their social responsibilities

　　In addition to private cars, taxis, car rental companies, and bus companies, how can children be safe? Urban transportation expert Xu Kangming pointed out that if taxis and online car rentals that require instant travel services are equipped with child safety seats, it is not realistic and the cost is very high. Citizens can consider traveling by themselves. However, for appointment-based travel, companies can provide this service from the perspective of fulfilling their social responsibilities, and appropriately charge service fees.

　　The reporter noted that the design team has provided solutions to the problems of child seat installation location and sanitary conditions. In 2014, the bus safety seat designed by students of Zhejiang University won the German Red Dot Design Concept Award because of its simplicity, practicality, and operability. This seat is usually used by adults, but when the front edge of the seat is raised At the beginning, the seat instantly "transformed" into a child-friendly seat. "Now technology should not be a problem, the key is the concept of public travel services." Citizen Ms. Zhou believes that for car-free families, the frequency of taking children to take the bus, subway or taxi is very high, hoping that public transportation and travel companies can ride for children Erected a security line, "no longer let us hug our baby when we ride in the car".
