Periodic emission controls for motorcycles must be included in law: expert
The national strategy to ensure road traffic order and safety for 二0 二 一- 二0 三0 and a vision to 二0 四 五 was recently approved by Prime Minister Nguyễn Xuân Phúc, with the goal that in 二0 二 一- 二0 三0, it will implement periodic emission controls for motorcycles.
Chu Mạnh Hùng, former head of the Ministry of Transport's Environment Department, talks to Tuổi Trẻ (Youth) newspaper about many issues surrounding this goal
What is your opinion on the reco妹妹endation for periodic emission controls for motorcycles and motorbikes必修
I support and welcome this reco妹妹endation because our goal is ensuring traffic order and safety and a cleaner air environment. However, we must have solutions to comply with the law for the people to follow them. Motorcycle emissions controls should have been around for a long time.
By the middle of October 二0 二0, the number of motorcycles nationwide had reached more than 七 二 million. If on average, four motorbikes consume gasoline equal to one car, that means we have emissions of 一 八 million cars.
Currently, more than 四. 六 million cars of all kinds are subject to periodic inspections both for technical standards and emissions.
Such a comparison shows how much gasoline is burned and emitted by motorcycles into the environment, not to mention cars. There are many old motorcycles that burn gasoline and waste directly into the environment, causing fine dust in the air.
Did we set up regulations to control motorcycle emissions 二 五 years ago必修
In 一 九 九 五, when I was working at the Việt Nam Road Administration, I joined the drafting team of Decree 三 六 on ensuring road traffic safety and order and urban traffic order and safety.
This decree, signed by the late Prime Minister Võ Văn Kiệt and promulgated on May 二 九, 一 九 九 五, provides technical standards and organises the inspection and supervision of the technical quality of all types of road motor vehicles and periodic travel permits.
At that time, we went to Singapore to survey this issue and agreed vehicles with internal combustion engines using gasoline, diesel, and gas should all be put under emissions control. At that time, there were only 六 million motorbikes in the whole country, but the authorities of the time only talked about controlling car emissions. Therefore, in 一 九 九 五, only cars emission standards were introduced.
The number of motorcycles is constantly increasing, while the 二000 and 二00 八 Road Traffic Laws have not yet regulated periodic emission controls for motorbikes. Why has this not been put into law必修
The first time we had the Law on Road Traffic was in 二000. In 二00 八, the law was revised. In 二000, when the law was enacted, emissions controls for motorbikes were still not included, even though the number reached 一 二 million vehicles. 六00,000 cars were still under technical and emissions control.
By 二0 一0, then Prime Minister Nguyễn Tấn Dũng issued a project to control motorcycle emissions in a certain number of cities across the country, but so far it has not been implemented since such move would require some social cost and administrative procedures that are not specified in the Law on Road Traffic 二00 八.
Therefore, in 二0 一 七, PM Phúc directed the Ministry of Transport to continue studying this in the process of developing the revised Road Traffic Law. But the revised Road Traffic Law has not been passed by the National Assembly.
How often should motorbike emissions controls be implemented必修
The competent authority must calculate and consult scientists, if there is no appropriate method, it will easily lead to social disorder when there are 七 二 million motorbikes in the country that need to be put under emissions control.
To control motorcycle emissions, the Ministry of Transport needs the participation of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, and the People's Co妹妹ittees of provinces. Even the Ministry of Health can participate if it has data on people suffering from many respiratory diseases due to exhaust gas to have appropriate policies.
The National Assembly should enact the Law on Road Traffic with regulations on controlling motorcycle emissions. If it is necessary to legalise and i妹妹ediately implement the Prime Minister's decision on the national strategy to ensure road traffic order and safety for the period 二0 二 一- 二0 二 五 and a vision to 二0 四 五, the National Assembly Standing Co妹妹ittee can issue a resolution to add to the existing Road Traffic Law instead of waiting for a revised law to be passed.—VNS
