Car free of charge hidden dangers need to be vigilant

According to news from the Chinese government's website, the State Council recently issued a notice regarding the approval of the Ministry of Transport and other departments to waive the implementation plan for small passenger car tolls.

According to the plan, the time range of free passage is the statutory holidays of the four countries, such as Spring Festival, Ching Ming Festival, Labor Day, and National Day, as well as the above-mentioned statutory holidays and consecutive holidays determined by the documents of the General Office of the State Council. The free time period begins at 00:00 on the first day of the holiday and ends at 24:00 on the last day of the holiday (the time of the ordinary road is the time when the vehicle passes the toll lane of the toll station, and the time of the freeway is the time when the vehicle leaves the export toll lane). Free-to-use vehicles range from 7 to 7 passenger vehicles on toll roads, including motorcycles allowed on ordinary toll roads.

This is undoubtedly a policy of benefiting the people. Not only can the owner of a car drive save a lot of money by traveling by car, but also to a certain extent it will stimulate the development of the tourism industry, the auto market and holiday spending, and promote further economic recovery. However, according to Xiao Bian, there are still many hidden dangers that need to be brought to the attention of relevant departments.

Hidden Trouble No. 1: Will the concentration of traffic congestion increase?

For small passenger cars of 7 seats or less, tolls will be waived during major holidays. Exemption of tolls not only saves on tolls, but also shortens the length of the toll booths. This is a good news for everyone. However, there are also many travelers who worry that this policy will increase the number of private cars during the holiday season. The highway will intensify traffic congestion and become a “parking lot”. It is also difficult for long-distance buses to enter and leave the city. Saving money may be more time consuming.

Hidden Trouble II: Will toll stations willing to let out this piece of fat?

At present, there are few domestic toll roads built by the government. Most of them are operated by enterprises. After the holiday is free, if the country does not have a corresponding subsidy mechanism, will the company pass on this loss to consumers through other means? Head? In addition, the holiday is free, how can the management responsibility of the company be defined during the free period?

Hidden Trouble 3: Can the scenic spot bear more tourists?

Transportation and accommodation costs are the bulk of tourism costs, and holiday trolleys are free on the road, which will reduce travel costs, attract more people, and attract more tourists to the attractions. Like Wutai Mountain, Pingyao Ancient City and other well-known attractions in the country, the number of tourists on holiday was several times that of weekdays. This move is one of them. I am afraid that it is even more crowded. Does the scenic area bear more people?

It is undeniable that the introduction of the "Program" reflects the government's philosophy of being people-centered and governing for the people. However, as Wang Jiang, director of the Institute of Logistics at Shenzhen University, puts it, “The thinking and methods of any policy should take into account scientific, systematic, and long-term effectiveness, which will allow ordinary people to receive welfare benefits. Let the company keep its driving force while avoiding some new problems that may arise.” Xiaobian hopes that these hidden dangers can attract the attention of the relevant departments, and do a good job of preparatory and booking programs in advance, so that this measure to benefit the people and the people can be brought into full play. Should play a role.
