Starting from today, the first express special-purpose electric tricycle industry standard will be formally implemented, which clearly defines the model, size, and speed of the express tricycle. However, this standard is not a mandatory standard. Express courier companies cannot buy or sell. However, in the event that the policies for multiple links, from production filing to on-licensing, are not clear, the express tricycle is still in a “streaking stateâ€.
Courier car is full of couriers worried about being investigated
With the city's comprehensive rectification of electric, fuel tricycle special campaigns, active in the major subway stations, the junction of the urban and rural areas have begun to decline, but the special action of the "wind" makes many courier companies began to worry about. Yesterday morning, Beijing Youth Daily reporter found that the courier company had a wide variety of vehicles near the west gate of the China Communication University, where the express delivery and receiving business was relatively concentrated. The courier also had different attitudes toward the “strike hard†that was about to begin.
According to the Beijing Youth Daily reporter, the express vehicles of Shentong, Yuantong, Shunfeng, and Tiantian are not the same in appearance and model. Most of them use electric tricycles and then install a closed container, but there are ordinary tricycles. No shelter. "I bought three rounds, can deliver on the line, those courier companies will require a container, we have this special delivery of food, not afraid of falling." One I bought the net deliveryman said.
For the issue of specification of express tricycles, most of express delivery companies have used uniform signs and models of express vehicles within the company. The responsible persons of the two companies, Tiantian and Yuantong, stated that their company's express vehicle was purchased by the franchise company itself, and in accordance with the company's requirements, it was equipped with a sealed cargo box and company logo. When driving, the company will also be required to comply with traffic regulations, not to run red lights, retrograde, speeding, etc.
"The fight against Mohism, fuel, and the kind of people." Talking about the current special rectification campaign for electric, fuel tricycle, some couriers feel that they should not be the object of being hit. A courier every day express: "How can express check, are the service industry, but not illegal business, as long as the traffic order, why check?"
However, some couriers have already felt a crisis. "I have heard that there are courier vehicles detained, the company told us to pay attention." Express said a courier Yuantong Express. I bought a network courier told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter: "I heard that the crackdown will start tomorrow, check the car to be detained, quit."
Beiqing Daily reporter called Rhythm, SF Express and many other courier companies, and the staff said they have heard about the recent “trigger strike†for tricycles.
The recent "strike hard" tricycle express car check or not?
On August 25th, the city launched a full-scale illegal fuel rectification campaign for two-wheeled motorcycles and electric (fuel) tricycles. The traffic control department stated that it will firmly implement “four ones†in law enforcement, that is, for unlicensed roads. EMUs shall be used to detain cars; if they do not have a driver's license, they shall be detained; all vehicles illegally assembled on the road shall be collected; and if they cannot provide a certificate of legal source after detaining the vehicle, they will not be returned. So, can express vehicles use license plates? The Beiqing Daily reporter learned from relevant sources that at present, the tricycle in the express delivery industry is temporarily not within the scope of this special investigation, but the tricycle used in the express delivery industry is within the scope of the next step of rectification.
In the view of some couriers, it is not relevant to check the tricycle strictly with itself, but the courier company reflects that the courier has already been investigated for driving the tricycle. Mr. Fang, the person in charge of Yuantong Express Beijing, told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter that his company has been detained for more than a dozen cars in Beijing in recent days. “The notice began on September 1 and the tricycle was arrested without a licence.†Mr. Fang said that if the express tricycle is heavily investigated, it will certainly cause a large-scale delivery delay.
The company’s couriers and responsible persons all stated that electric tricycles have become an indispensable means of transportation for the express delivery industry. A courier told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter that they had to travel every day in various quarters and hutongs. Electric tricycles were more convenient than cars, and they had more traffic than electric two-wheeled vehicles.
“Opening a car not only has high costs for cars and gasoline, but also it is difficult for the community to enter, and it is not easy to enter and enter.†Mr. Fang also believes that Beijing is heavily congested, and it is difficult to park cars. Express delivery by vehicles can seriously affect efficiency. . In Beijing, Yuantong Company alone has about 3,000 electric tricycles and at least more than 10,000 vehicles in the city.
A person in the logistics industry said that two-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled vehicles cannot handle a large amount of traffic, and the cost of using automobiles is too high. Therefore, electric and fuel tricycles are the most ideal way for express delivery companies. As for the traffic control department, the unlicensed express tricycle lacks supervision, and it is unquestionable from a law enforcement point of view. "No one in China's express delivery company has ever been fined because of a car." Li Huide, executive vice president of the China Express Delivery Association, once told the media that the reason why a courier company was punished was that the use of tricycles violated some cities' prohibition of electric power. The regulations for the passage of cars or electric tricycles in the city.
The issue of checking and not checking the express tricycle has caused controversy in some cities. The Beiqing Daily reporter found out on the official website of the State Post Bureau that, in many areas that launched the "strike hard" tricycle, the express tricycle was investigated or banned, and the local postal department had to coordinate. The final express tricycle was not included in the list. Banned scope."
Express "GB" speed is not more than 15 kilometers
At the beginning of the Beijing tricycle rectification operation, the relevant person in charge of the Municipal Traffic Management Bureau said in an interview with the media that he is currently studying with the postal department the specific specifications for express vehicles.
In fact, the specification of express tricycles has already been issued, and the State Post Bureau has already considered and approved the industry standard for the “Technical Requirements for Express Specialized Electric Tricyclesâ€. This standard will be formally implemented today.
The standard drafted by the Institute of Postgraduate Sciences of the National Institute of Posts & Research has a clear stipulation on the dimensions, load quality, maximum speed, braking distance, and mechanical performance of express delivery electric tricycles. Among them, the maximum speed of the express tricycle must not exceed 15 kilometers, and each vehicle should be limited to one person. The tricycle needs to have a uniform logo consisting of a dark blue and light blue background and a white "Express" font. In addition, the express tricycle should also have a corporate logo.
Yesterday, the Beijing Youth Daily reporter visited several districts of the city and did not find any express vehicles that met the requirements of the “national standardâ€. The couriers said that they had not heard of the “national standard†or the idea of ​​changing vehicles. "15 kilometers per hour can not send goods at all, bicycles are faster than this." A courier on the "national standard" speed limit can not understand the feeling.
According to a number of couriers, express tricycles can generally open to 30 to 40 kilometers per hour, the fastest can be opened to 50 kilometers per hour. Most couriers believe that it is difficult for electric tricycles to avoid accidents that involve collisions or overturns. However, this is just like riding a bicycle. “We earn money is sent out one by one.†A tact courier said that if the speed limit of 15 kilometers, the number of deliveries will certainly reduce, and income will naturally decrease.
An industry source stated that the industry standard issued by the postal service is not a mandatory standard, and it is still difficult to say how much influence it has on the express delivery companies.
It is not clear if the "GB car" can be branded.
Yesterday, the Beijing Youth Daily reporter interviewed several express delivery companies in the city. Many company staff were not clear about the "national standard", but the staff of SF Express and Yuantong Company stated that the company has learned of this, but there are still Less care.
For the forthcoming "Technical Requirements for Special Electric Tricycles for Express Delivery", Mr. Fang, the person in charge of Yuantong Express's Beijing area, welcomed it, but he said he is still waiting. Mr. Fang said that none of the companies registered in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology can produce express special-purpose electric tricycles that meet the standards, and electric tricycles cannot handle licenses and driver's licenses.
Mr. Fang told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter that in other provinces and cities, the postal and transportation departments have jointly issued licenses for express vehicles to conduct unified management and regulation. He hopes that the relevant departments will issue policies as soon as possible so that express vehicles can be put on the road in compliance with the norms and ensure the normal operation of the express delivery industry.
“If we give us a standard in terms of car purchase, image and traffic regulations, we are willing to do it.†Mr. Fang said, “As long as there are standard cars, the transportation department also recognizes that even if it is a 5000 block, we are willing to purchase replacements in large quantities. ."
Beiqing Daily reporter found that in the drafting unit for the “Technical Requirements for Special Delivery Tricycles for Express Deliveryâ€, several tricycle manufacturers also participated in the drafting and formulation of the standard. A person in charge of corporate sales in Beijing who participated in the drafting of the “national standard†stated that since the city started carrying out remediation operations for tricycles, they have no longer produced electric tricycles that originally had their own standards.
The person in charge told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter that his company had already produced electric tricycles in accordance with the unified standards issued by the postal service and received some orders. "But whether or not the electric tricycle under the new standard can be put on the market is currently unclear. â€
