Ensuring the safety of student transportation is a critical responsibility. The primary focus should be on establishing and enhancing institutional frameworks rather than merely adhering to technical standards.

Government Regulation and the Automotive Industry

The passenger car market has been tightly regulated by the government,Implementation Management in Road Motor Vehicle Manufacturing Articles primarily dominated by large joint ventures that rely on technology imports and advanced vehicles to meet market demands. A few private local manufacturers have managed to export affordable passenger cars to developing countries. However, government regulation is not a cure-all. While the economic management departments aim to play a "positive role," their actions often stifle the healthy development of the market economy. Therefore, it is recommended to abandon the stringent control over school bus manufacturers and product access, focusing instead on social utility.

The Double-Edged Sword of Access Management

Access management serves as a double-edged sword. Its primary purpose is to manage certain social or economic activities through administrative licensing. However, this often leads to unnecessary economic activities and restrictions.

Student Transportation Safety Management

Ensuring the safety of student transportation is a fundamental duty. The core issue lies in establishing and improving the institutional framework for school bus services, rather than focusing solely on the technical standards of dedicated school buses. Existing bus standards are based on EU directives and, although not entirely equivalent, are close to global advanced levels. The new dedicated school bus standards, developed with reference to the U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS), have caused confusion within the Chinese automobile access management system. This has led to duplication in technical standards, regulations, and administrative procedures, benefiting only statutory inspection agencies by increasing their business volume.

Economic Costs and Social Resources

Implementing dedicated school bus manufacturers and product access management rules will consume various social resources. The economic costs will ultimately be borne by society. Manufacturers will pass on these costs to private school buses, increasing their operating costs, which will eventually be borne by parents or government financial subsidies. It is crucial to establish and improve the institutional framework for school bus services.

Government Agencies and Student Transportation Safety

Government agencies at all levels recognize the importance of student transportation safety management. However, developing rules like "special school bus manufacturers and product access management" may not effectively promote and improve the quality of dedicated school bus production and sales. For instance, requiring applicants to accumulate not less than 1,000 or 3,000 units in the first three years is impractical and does not align with market economy rules, especially in the context of the international automotive product type certification system.

Interesting Statistics

  • According to the World Health Organization, road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death for children and young adults aged 5-29 years. Source
  • In the United States, school buses are considered the safest mode of transportation for children, with only 0.2 deaths per 100 million miles traveled, compared to 1.5 deaths for passenger vehicles. Source
  • China has over 200 million students, and ensuring their safe transportation is a significant challenge. Source

Conclusion

In conclusion, while government regulation plays a role in ensuring safety and quality, it should not hinder the market's healthy development. The focus should be on establishing robust institutional frameworks for student transportation safety, rather than imposing stringent technical standards and access management rules. By doing so, we can ensure the safety of our students while fostering a healthy and competitive automotive industry.
