Preventing backovers and rearview safety
这里有一些方法可以帮助你避免这种情况发生.
最令人心碎的撞车事故之一是车辆造成的倒车事故, usually one parked in a driveway or in a parking lot backing over an unseen person behind the car. The victim is commonly a child or an elderly person. In 2022, according to the nonprofit organization Kids and Cars在美国，有18名12岁以下的儿童在倒车事故中丧生. According to a National Highway Traffic 安全 Administration 2022年的报告显示，从2016年到2020年的5年平均死亡人数为264人.
Any area around the 车辆 that the driver can't see, either directly or through a side or rearview mirror, is considered a blind spot. 所有的车辆都有盲点，而最盲点的是在车辆的后部. 当儿童在停着的车辆后面行走或玩耍时，特别容易受到伤害, 小，不太可能被车内的司机注意到.
Tips to help avoid a backover accident:
- Look all around before you get in the 车辆. 不管你把车停在哪里，绕着车走一圈，看看车下面. 如果附近有小孩在玩耍，上车前先数一数.
- Look behind once in the 车辆. 进入车辆后，应转头向后看. 如果有孩子，在你退出之前，确保你还能看到他们. 如果有其他成年人在场，让他们照看孩子，在你离开的时候充当看门人.
- 听. 关掉收音机，把窗户摇下来，这样你就能听到了, as well as see, what's going on around you.
- Be prepared to stop. A tragedy can happen in a heartbeat. 缓慢而小心地倒车，完全控制汽车，并准备在需要时立即停车.
- Do not rely on backup cameras and sensors alone. 受控测试表明，摄像头和传感器可以安装在suv和其他大型车辆上, while helpful, 侦测儿童在车后玩耍或过马路是否万无一失. Detection results vary according to several factors, 包括儿童的人数和位置(如儿童在车辆后角停车), weather conditions, slope of driveway or street and so on. 当你倒车的时候，检查后视镜和侧视镜以及你的相机会很有帮助.
- Teach children not to play near cars. Don't allow the driveway to become a play area. 一定要教育你的孩子不要在任何交通工具附近、下面、里面或后面玩耍.
- Trim landscaping around driveways and sidewalks. 这可以帮助您在备份时增加可见性.
- Clean your 车辆's backup camera regularly. 道路上的灰尘和积雪会堆积在你的后视摄像头上，损害你看清楚的能力.
- 如果你没有备用摄像头，可以考虑安装备用摄像头. 你可以 purchase an aftermarket system 安装在牌照架、pp王者电子官网杠或挂件上.
