Technical examination test with kebab skewers around Tehran
According to Tejarat News, the head of the Faraja traffic police, while criticizing the neglect of some agencies in their duties to reduce the number of dead and injured in traffic accidents, once again emphasized the need to increase car and road safety, as well as to amend laws in order to increase its deterrence. .
Quoted from ISNASardar Seyed Kamal Hadianfar said in a press conference that was held before noon today at the Noor Al Reza conference hall: “Rahor police station is a completely different station that deals with people’s lives.” Other departments and areas in the country also have important responsibilities; But none of them are as much as the police that directly focus on people’s lives.
In order to better understand the importance of this issue, I must say that in the one hour that this meeting was held, at least two people were killed in traffic accidents on our roads and 50 people were injured, of which at least 20 people were permanently disabled. became This statistic is not accepted in any way.
Hadianfar continued: 51% of traffic accident victims die at the scene of the accident, of which 34% are car occupants. 49% die after the accident, among which 43% die in the hospital and 6% die during transportation.
Lack of cerebral hemorrhage diagnostic equipment in some hospitals
Rahor Faraja police chief continued: 43% death rate of accident victims in hospitals is a high number. Unfortunately, in many of our hospitals, there are no tools and equipment related to the diagnosis of concussion or internal bleeding.
The person is taken to the hospital, they ask him if he has a headache or dizziness, and suddenly, after an hour, the same person dies in the hospital or even at home due to internal bleeding or concussion. It is necessary to pay special attention to these cases and provide these equipments and facilities for hospitals.
Emphasizing that we are in a situation where we must act honestly, Hadianfar said: “Accidents are not a compliment.” The accident comes back to the human factor, the car and the road, and the fact is that neither the car, nor the road, nor the human factor is suitable for us. The reason for accidents comes back to the rules; But our laws are not deterrent.
When a woman in Isfahan kills a person in an accident and then says that I will pay her dowry, this means that our laws do not have enough deterrence, and this issue needs to be given serious attention.
Rahor Faraja police chief mentioned the issue of scrapping cars and added: Today, our car exit is like the end of a funnel and the process of scrapping cars is very slow, and in fact, it can be said that it is not paid attention to at all. When a car crashes 20 times and then enters the road and crashes again, this time causing the death of several people. These are the things that should be paid attention to. How long do we have to compliment and just thank each other?
Hadianfar added: I was in the traffic police in 1983. At that time, there were 5,200 accident-causing spots in the country. When I returned to the traffic police in 2018, they asked to give us the statistics of accident-prone spots in cities and roads. Again, the statistics were 5,200 points. So why has nothing been done during this time?
How long do we have to accept that our main road does not have a divider, and then two Peugeots, both of which have family members in them, come and collide head-on on this road and explode, and no one can do anything about them? It will not come and these dear souls will be filled.
Rahor Faraja Police Chief continued: “Once upon a time, we were told not to mention the names of cars in your interviews because it would harm the production process.” Well, we didn’t mention names, but why are these cars still victims? What is the situation today?
Stating that we are still killing people in our axes, he said: Accidents are like a virus. How come when Corona entered the country, the whole country was mobilized to deal with it, we should have the same approach against the accident virus. By the way, the corona virus will be fixed, but the virus of accidents will not be fixed, and it is necessary that the whole country and all the institutions are mobilized to reduce its number so that we can reduce the number of dead and injured in traffic accidents.
Referring to the meeting of the Supreme Traffic Council, which was held late last year under the chairmanship of the president, Hadianfar said: I told the president in that meeting that as soon as the government wants to intervene in this field, 50% of our work is solved.
I presented the tasks of the agencies to the president and said to ask each agency for a report on the work it should do, and the first agency should be the police, and ask me, the chief of the traffic police, to report what I have done and if I had not fulfilled my duties Deal with me and other devices in the same way.
Why the Ministry of Health has not done anything about accidents
He further criticized the performance of the Ministry of Health in dealing with traffic accidents and said: Why does the Ministry of Health have nothing to do with accidents, why does it not take any steps. With greetings and blessings, the work is not progressing. I can also stand up and say thank you and after five years get a plaque and leave, but how do we want to answer the people tomorrow. What answer will we have to the number of deaths and casualties? These are important things that we should pay attention to.
Traffic Police Chief Faraja added: I believe that with the simplest measures and minimal resources, we can reduce the number of dead and injured in traffic accidents.
Hadianfar also criticized the performance of the previous government regarding accidents and said: The government was responsible based on Article 108, and not only this government, but all governments are responsible, but why didn’t they take care of it?
Why were they in the government for eight years and did nothing and did not appear in one of the commissions? Fortunately, an excellent traffic meeting was held on Eid night with the presence of the President; But this meeting should be held at least once every three months.
Referring to the attacks that were sent to him after his criticism of the quality of the cars, the police chief of Rahor Faraja added: “In the cyber field, we have a principle called logic principle, which means imagine that we might see a building and everything is normal on the surface. But for example, suppose if we look at it with a pair of glasses, we will see hackers and actions that intend to penetrate there.
Things that can’t be seen on the outside, but inside there is pressure and its attack. If you look at me, I have the same problems and maybe with the same vision, today I am here with a torn dress or scars on my body.
Because many people blocked us and pulled us not to speak, but the fact is that after Behbahan’s accident, we ran out of tolerance and decided to talk about the car.
He added: Some car manufacturers come to us and say that we have 164 safety and quality programs. I say that the program on paper is useless. What have you done in practice?
Only in one case, the sheet metal of the car should be low carbon steel, but in our cars, three-layer steel is used, so it is clear that in this situation, the car will crumple and catch fire with a simple accident.
Did our automakers fix airbags and focus? They only think about production and production to reach from one million to three million. They should also care about people’s lives and people’s lives should be important to them.
Hadianfar added: How much of this 2000 billion daily income do car manufacturers spend on the safety and quality of their cars? Many people tell me not to say these things, but I cannot remain silent in front of people’s lives. Finally, they give me a tablet and I go too, but I have to speak my mind, and now, regardless of the authorities, it is the reporters and the media who have to follow up on these demands.
Referring to the import of cars to the country, he said: “Once we heard that they are planning to bring a car for less than 10,000 Indian dollars.” Well, what is this to do if they are going to import an unsafe Indian car, it was our Tiba and Pride. We are in favor of car imports, but we say safe car imports. Car quality should be improved in import.
Reduction of accident victims with car imports
Rahor Faraja police chief added: When the import of cars was freed in 2085, this had a direct impact on domestically produced cars and even our deaths decreased.
Technical examination test with skewers!
He also mentioned the determination of the car’s wear and tear age in the law and said: “The law came and determined the wear and tear age of the car, but one person went from the other side and complained in the court of justice that technical examination should be the standard.”
Which technical examination, when around Tehran, they insert kebab skewers into the exhaust and, for example, take a four gas test with it, I can’t close my eyes to these things.
Sometimes some of these technical examination companies invite us and say to support us. What support should we give when the lives and safety of people are on the other side? Well, they say these things because of the money, but people’s lives are more important.
Hadianfar also mentioned the death statistics of children in traffic accidents and said: 18% of our deaths in traffic accidents are under 18 years old. What sin have they committed that their future should be ruined like this?
I visited a hospital some time ago. There was a person there who said that he has been involved in the treatment of complications caused by accidents for 20 years and has performed more than 20 major surgeries. These should be taken into account.
Police Chief Rahor Faraja also pointed to the Supreme Leader’s support and his emphasis on improving the safety of domestic products and said: “When we talked about car safety, unfortunately no one came to us and finally it was the Supreme Leader who entered into this issue.” and personally emphasized the need to improve the quality and safety of cars in several speeches.
Well, now the argument is over for everyone. If car manufacturers don’t listen to me, they should listen to Supreme Leader of the Revolution. The relevant minister should demand from the car manufacturers what they have done in line with the leadership’s orders.
He added: “The government is very busy and troubled, but the reality is that the issue of traffic and everything related to accidents is important, that’s why I emphasize that the Supreme Council should have a meeting every three months.” Today, fixing 3,000 accident-prone spots on the roads requires 5,000 billion credits.
Last year, we poured more than 6000 billion into the treasury, and the law and how it was spent is also known. So where has the money gone? In all these years, the money that we have spent, why has it not been allocated to the devices whose shares have been specified according to the law, which are still the same points that cause accidents since 15 years ago.
Why our ambulances and rescue vehicles are not suitable for road conditions. Why are police patrols not provided? We have to patrol the country’s roads for every 120 km in 290,000 km.
He stated that the Commission of Article 90 of the Parliament has recently entered into these cases and intends to investigate them, and said: We hope that these cases will be paid attention to. Today, in 702 of our cities, there is still no traffic police stationed, and these things must be provided.
Green Leaf reduced people’s expenses by 60%
Hadianfar further mentioned the issue of the green leaf of cars and turning it into an official vehicle document and said: “Fortunately, the police did a lot of follow-up on the green leaf and finally the government also supported us.” Now there is no requirement to register the official document of the car in the offices, and this issue has reduced people’s expenses by 40 to 60 percent.
The traffic police will not receive a single Riyal from this incident, but our intention was to make people comfortable. Fortunately, soon this issue will be put on the agenda of the parliament and, God willing, it will become a law, and there will be no “buts” or “ifs” left in this plan.
He added: “We have also changed the method of confiscating motorcycles.” Motorcycle is a means of life and livelihood for some people. Of course, we are obliged to implement the law, but the implementation of the law is on the side of the people, and we consider it our duty to make the people feel better.
Emphasizing that we should go towards amending laws, increasing car safety, improving road safety, etc., Hadianfar said: This issue can be achieved with the cooperation of journalists and media people.
We have a plan that in the 7th development plan, which is being written these days, the number of traffic accident victims will reach below 8,000 people during a five-year plan. Also, 300,000 deaths should be reduced to 150,000. These things are possible under the condition that all devices fulfill their duties and come to work.
