On November 29, the traffic police "overturned" the owner of the electric car with a stick.
Stick sling!Slam!The whole process is done in one go, without any mud and water!The surveillance camera recorded this scene in its entirety!Then the surveillance video went viral, and the Internet was boiling. I know that this is in the law enforcement inspection, I don't know, I think I am filming which police blockbuster?That stick is too ruthless and too accurate, I want to ask, traffic police, who did you subdue with this stick?
Regardless of whether they were on duty or passing by, they were silent at this moment.
It's true that you hit someone for all kinds of reasons, even if the other person is not wearing a helmet. But who says not wearing a helmet is a crime?
I don't know when helmets have become a part of the life of electric car owners. It's not just adults!Elementary school students are also required to wear helmets when going to school.
There is a saying: If the law does not prohibit it, it can be done. Is there anything in law that says it's illegal to wear a helmet?Is there such a provision in the Traffic Act?If so, when will it start to be executed?
Then here comes the paradox!If there is a requirement that people riding electric vehicles must wear helmets, it is to protect personal safety and reduce traffic accidents, no matter how the regulations are made, they are always reflected in a "safety".
In this case, is personal safety compulsorily protected, or is it for everyone to establish a sense of security so as to protect themselves?
If it is the latter, then does the owner of the electric car have the right to choose whether to wear it or not?
In the final analysis, the role of "management" in security is very small, and personal safety is still a personal behaviorFrom a certain point of view, the fact that the whole people wear helmets is a bit of a sense of grass and trees.
I agree that wearing a helmet is safe, but I don't agree that wearing a helmet is mandatory.
And the way to deal with it is often simple, that is, punishment!
But to say how many people are willing to wear helmets every day, those who are really safety-conscious will wear them consciously, and those who are not safety-conscious are only temporary. Therefore, the popularization of grooming and safety education is the key.
But we seem to have only a cold and hard way of education.
Either tell you that you are breaking the law or say that you are fined, in fact, it will only make people more offensive!But in retrospect, we forget the most crucial part, which is that school safety education did not start as children.
You will find that we hardly teach "traffic safety", "social ethics", "laws and regulations". Even in high school, there were no teachers to teach us this. The university should have, but this is as a future professional direction.
At this time, will you take courses other than lawyers?
So you see, it's an endless loop.
Well, putting aside this part and looking at the incident, on November 29, a law enforcement officer in Hezhou used a baton to intercept the owner of the two-wheeled vehicle without a helmet, causing the two-wheeler to lose control, and finally causing the driver to fall to the ground and be injured.
How to determine this kind of behavior?
According to the online rumor** on November 30, a staff member responded: "Because the car inspection here is stricter, the young traffic police have a bit of a big temper." "In short, it's young and vigorous. At present, a special investigation team has been set up to investigate.
The official results are:Stop performing duties and handling, strengthen education and management in the future, standardize law enforcement behavior, and improve the level of law enforcement. There are two pieces of information worth paying attention to from this announcement: first, this thing is really not right, and the mistake has been recognized;The second states what happened, but does not specify how it will be carried out.
But we must be clear that not wearing a helmet is a violation but not a crime.
Not wearing a helmet is not a threat to the lives of others, but to oneself. In addition, not wearing a helmet does not affect the normal driving of others!Therefore, wearing a helmet should be a grooming rather than a coercive act, let alone a fine as a means to encourage the wearing of a helmet.
So why do you think about wearing helmets?
Looking at the essence of the phenomenon, we will find a problem, in fact, no one really cares whether you wear a helmet or not, and no one cares whether you want to wear a helmet or whether you are safe. There really is no one who cares about everything about you except your family and parents. You say they're putting you in a helmet for your safety, but it's their job.
That's all!So what's going on with wearing a helmet in this way?
Back to the event!Why did everyone react so much to this stick of the traffic police?To sum up, there are two points, one is that the traffic police manage traffic management and regulate traffic safety and standardize driving behavior, but he took out a baton and hit people, which is an intentional injury.
Did the traffic police subdue anyone with this stick?Not a single one.
Second, even if the two-wheeled owner does not wear a helmet, is there still a fine?Under the eyes of the sky, he can still run!The other is the staff's reply that "young people are not sensible", which is a bit frivolous and irresponsible. It must be clear that the stick is likely to kill a person.
And he is the son of a mother, and more likely the head of a family. Then there is the deep resentment of this "abuse of power".
On the whole, the traffic police should not swing that stick from any point of view, because the two-wheeler owner did not have any aggressive behavior.
It's been 3 days since it happened!But the aftermath of the online repercussions has not stopped.
Netizens also sent out soul torture: they all thought that the staff member had a deliberate behavior, and the man on the bicycle was not wearing a helmet to make him stop, but it was never this kind of violence to stop the person who was not wearing a helmet!
Subsequently, everyone questioned whether the traffic police involved would face criminal liability
From the perspective of morality, the traffic police, as law enforcement officers, should lead by example and enforce the law in a civilized manner. However, this kind of violence not only violates morality, but also damages the image and credibility of the traffic police. It's unacceptable, and it's even more infuriating!
However, we cannot generalize and dismiss all traffic police.
Among the many traffic police, the vast majority of them are conscientious, responsible, and civilized law enforcement. The extreme act of knocking down a man on a bicycle with a stick is an isolated case and is not representative of the entire traffic police force.
I also don't think he's representative of the whole team, the presence of these people is inevitable, but the quality of the staff must be further strengthened. The relationship between the traffic police and the owner of the motor vehicle is not a hostile relationship, but a relationship of facilitation.
However, the relevant parties must give an explanation for the staff involved in the incident, and must give reasonable compensation and an apology to the injured person, as well as compensation for the work delayed due to the injury. Finally, it is not just a criticism of this matter.
There must be a price to pay for their actions.
We need the relevant authorities to be impartial and give a fair account to the victims and the public.
