Safety management is no more fundamental than “sweeping the floor”

Cause of the accident: in March this year, due to the fatal traffic accident of 31 people on the Jinji expressway, the relevant departments of Shanxi Province issued an order to prohibit all dangerous chemical transport vehicles from driving at high speed in the province for one year from March 5

debate question: is such a “ban order” suitable for hazardous chemicals vehicles on expressways

practice has proved that: due to the ban, dangerous chemicals transport vehicles flow into the township roads without road traffic police control, which increases the probability of accidents. Such regulations are inconsistent with the actual work and should be stopped as soon as possible

cause analysis: first of all, after the prohibition of hazardous chemical vehicles on expressways, vehicles had to rush into national roads, provincial roads and county and township roads. As we all know, no matter the National Road, provincial road or county road, its road condition can not be compared with the highway. The road is bumpy and uneven. Most of the transport vehicles are tank cars, and most of the dangerous chemicals are liquid or gas. The bumpy driving process is easy to cause the valve to loose and leak, and the tire will burst due to too much friction

Second, there are many non Expressway intersections, poor line of sight and no correct signs, which can easily lead to vehicle collision and accidents

thirdly, most of the vehicles transporting hazardous chemicals are heavy-duty vehicles with great carrying capacity, which are relatively difficult to operate and require relatively high turning radius and load-bearing capacity of the road. 1f you drive on county and township roads, especially in mountainous areas such as Shanxi, the possibility of rollover accidents will increase< (4) compared with other roads, most of the trips on expressways are shorter. 1f you don't get close to the road and go a long way, not only the energy consumption will increase, but also the probability of accidents will increase. On April 24, a large-scale hazardous chemicals tanker from Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, wants to enter Shanxi Province. 1t starts from Ningbo, Zhejiang Province and passes through Anhui and Henan Province. 1f it can get on the expressway, From the entrance of Pinglu in Shanxi, you can walk about 60 kilometers to your destination. However, due to the implementation of the "prohibition order" on Expressway in Shanxi Province, the car had to bypass Lingbao and Yuling in Henan Province, pass Tongguan in Shaanxi Province, cross the Yellow River, enter Fenglingdu in Ruicheng County, Shanxi Province, and then go around to Monan town in Ruicheng County, Shanxi Province, which is equivalent to a big "Zhi" between Henan, Shaanxi and Shanxi Province. All the way bumpy, detour walked nearly a thousand kilometers, greatly increasing the probability of accidents fifthly, in recent years, the accidents of hazardous chemicals transport vehicles are mostly caused by inadequate training of drivers and escorts, fatigue driving, confusion of transport company management, etc., not because of the natural defects of expressway or the unsuitable hazardous chemicals transport vehicles for expressway< To sum up, it is suggested that the relevant authorities in Shanxi should immediately stop the ban on dangerous chemicals transport vehicles on high speed. 1n the face of the lessons of the accident, we should sum up the lessons and solve the problem. The ban on hazardous chemicals transport vehicles on high-speed roads only moved the accident to national roads, provincial roads and county and township roads, and did not fundamentally solve the problem. Safety management is no better than sweeping the floor. We should sweep away the accidents and leave the difficulties and troubles to the grassroots and the masses. This kind of management method is not desirable. What we should do is to think of more ways in management and make more places convenient for the masses we solemnly declare that this article is an original article of China labor insurance network. 1f you need to reprint it, please indicate the source
