WASHINGTON, KOMPAS.com - Department of Transportation or the Ministry of Transportation in the United States submitted a proposal for all cars sold in the country had to use the camera back (rear) as standard equipment. Regulations will be enforced as a whole in 2014. This camera will work automatically when the car backwards.
The new rules will be run by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administrasion (NHTSA) with a target of reducing blind zones or areas that do not look behind the vehicle by the driver.
The automaker is already adopting this technology. Not only in the United States, in Indonesia luxury cars (premium) has been accompanied by the camera back as standard equipment.
Meanwhile, in the United States, according to edmuns.com, backward or behind the camera has been used since 2003. The number was also growing. Currently 53.8 percent of all passenger cars sold in the United States have been equipped with a camera back, either as standard or optional equipment.
Boy two years
The emergence of regulatory proposals are due to the movement of the "Cameron Gulbransen Kids Transportation Safety Act of 2007". Cameron Gulbransen is a two-year-old boy who was killed in an accident when his father backed up, grinding it to death. (It is said that such incidents have occurred in Bandung, the children play in under the car, but the time and place not stated.)
"Do not exist anymore tragic accident when parents backed the car from the garage or on the road, which could kill or injure small children who play in the back of the vehicle," said Minister of Transportation (Transportation) United States Ray LaHood of origin rules.
Added, the regulation will help drivers to find parts that are not visible directly behind the vehicle. "With this, the driver can ensure a safe retreat," he said.
As requested, the camera helps the driver and passengers can look back. Vehicles that have to use the pickup, minivan, buses, and vehicles that run slowly (big truck) with a weight up to 5 tons.
Motorists should be able to see first hand the atmosphere in the back of his vehicle when the transmission in reverse. Images captured video camera mounted on the back of the car is then displayed through the monitor screen in the cabin. Especially for this case there is no guidance, whether to use the monitor screen on the dashboard, a special screen, or through the rearview mirror.
This regulation will be run in stages. An estimated 10 percent of new cars produced until September 2012 this has been fitted with rear camera. Furthermore, 40 percent in 2013 and 100 percent in 2014.
In another case, last week, Ford said, all vehicles can be equipped with a camera was marketed in late 2011.
Toddlers & Elderly
According to NHTSA, an average of 292 fatalities and 18,000 injuries occur every year due to rear collision. Also an accident with the same condition that resulted in 228 fatal injuries in a vehicle with the weight of 5 tons.
More distressing, it turns out that most of the time the victim is a boy back three years and under (toddlers) and the elderly (seniors). It is said, fatal accidents on small cars while back, 44 percent of the victims were toddlers (highest), while the elderly aged 70 years, 33 percent.
It should also be considered from now before it's too late by the authorities in the country. Because the number of cars increased rapidly. Victims of the most, well ... the people who most loved and respected!
