The hottest topic these two days is helmet. The most popular communication is "you buy Helmet Did you? "" Why did the price of helmets rise so much? "
On June 1 this year, the whole country will carry out the "One Helmet One Belt" guard action. "Helmets" refer to helmets, and "belts" refer to seat belts. At that time, the national traffic police will carry out unified operations to strictly investigate the behaviors of not wearing helmets and safety belts. The Regulations of Jiangsu Province on the Administration of Electric Bicycles, which will be implemented on July 1 this year, also stipulates that people must wear helmets when riding electric bicycles. If they do not wear helmets, the traffic management department of the public security organ will give them a warning or impose a fine of more than 20 yuan but less than 50 yuan.
On the evening of May 15, Mr. Zhang, a citizen, bought two helmets at 118 yuan and 87 yuan in an online shop. This morning, the prices of these two helmets have quietly increased. The helmet worth 118 yuan rose to 158 yuan, and the helmet worth 87 yuan rose to 149 yuan.
Check and interview many Electric vehicle helmet Manufacturers and many manufacturers said that they could not determine the specific delivery time due to tight supply. The helmets of a well-known brand electric vehicles are out of stock.
Now, the "One Helmet One Belt" campaign has been launched nationwide, with only 15 days left for the buffer transition period. There is a huge market gap, and helmets are being snapped up. You should pay first and then place an order. After one month, you can't get the goods! Helmets, several prices a day!
Examples such as melt blown fabrics and masks tell us that opportunities coexist with crises, and high risks lie behind high profits! Helmets are no exception!
01 Small helmet workshops swarming in, market gap soon saturated
I have to admit that many small business owners in China have extremely high market acumen, which may be the nature of profit seeking businessmen! In fact, the technical threshold of helmets is very low, the mold opening speed is very fast, and a large number of unqualified small workshops are swarming. It is undeniable that the traffic police go out to see whether you wear helmets, and they don't know whether the quality is up to standard, so the low-quality helmets produced by these small workshops will fill the market vacancy in a short period of time, from short supply to oversupply. Electric vehicle observers believe that this time will not be too long.
02 Stock up and speculate on the price. The price drops sharply after there is no market
I have to admit that helmets are out of stock recently. As a result, the helmet industry has a phenomenon of hoarding and speculation. Many low-quality helmets have been sold for 5-10 times the price, and even bicycle helmets and safety helmets for construction sites have been snapped up, which is the prelude to social chaos. But according to the first article, if a large number of small and medium-sized factories are set up, the price of helmets, a durable consumer goods, will plummet after the supply exceeds the demand. This is not what electric vehicle observers say, but because of market rules.
03 Watch out for helmet fraud, someone is missing by taking advantage of the order cycle
At present, the most discussed topic in the major WeChat groups is where to buy helmets. Since many people want to purchase helmets, a small number of criminals who cheat and cheat have appeared. They were out of stock but deliberately made a panic. They asked you to pay the deposit first and deliver the goods a month later. In the end, your advance payment was also wasted. This phenomenon also occurred in the mask industry a month or two ago.
04 The helmet standard is vague, and the collapse tide after standardized management
At present, the management of helmets includes the Announcement on Issuing the Implementation Rules for the Compulsory Product Certification of Motorcycle Passenger Helmets, Household and Similar Equipment and the Motorcycle Passenger Helmets GB811-2010, which is a reference and constraint for electric vehicle helmets. The electric vehicle observers believe that after defining the management standards and systems for electric vehicle helmets, The closure tide of illegal electric vehicle helmet manufacturers is coming!
So, what kind of helmets are safe? Is the higher the price, the better the quality? During the interview, many citizens were confused. Industry insiders said that at present, there is only the national standard of Motorcycle Passenger Helmets in China, and there is no national standard of electric vehicle passenger helmets.
Last year, the Zhejiang Yueqing Helmet Industry Association, which has a large number of helmet manufacturers, formulated the Group Standard for Electric Bicycle Crew Helmets, which stipulates that helmets are composed of shells, buffer layers, wearing devices, etc. The new ABS materials are tough and durable, and the helmet quality (including accessories) is not more than 800g, but this standard is also a local industry group standard, Whether it is finally included in the national standard remains to be further observed.
However, it is clear that when purchasing electric vehicle helmets, citizens should try to choose products from large manufacturers. At the same time, they should also see whether their workmanship is fine, and whether the materials are tough and durable. It is better to buy high-quality helmets with slightly higher prices, so as to increase more security for their safe travel.
In view of the above situation, the electric vehicle observer suggested that everyone should not sell substandard helmets, low-quality helmets worth more than ten yuan, pay strangers blindly, and stock up on goods. The risk is very high.
If the registration of electric vehicles is a "rule constraint", now let everyone wear helmets, it is a "habit formation". It is suggested to start from key groups such as express delivery and takeaway "riders", for example, to urge enterprises to add the "equipment spot check" function in the APP used by "riders", require them to wear safety helmets and take photos to upload for review, and restrict riders who do not wear helmets from running on the list. You can also use some good methods to attract the attention, such as cooperating with the competent industry departments and industry associations to promote the models of "buying electric bicycles and giving helmets free" and "buying insurance and giving helmets free". For example, the Nanjing traffic police launched a collection activity of "telling your story about helmets and giving helmets free". In short, don't let the wind of "helmet price rise" dispel the policy goodwill.
It's getting hotter and hotter. Everyone is looking forward to taking off masks as soon as possible, and now they have to wear helmets. Some people may feel that it is expensive and troublesome to buy them, so they need to strengthen publicity and guidance, and add a dose of "torture of life", because helmets are the last barrier to protect our personal safety during riding. I remember seeing a social news before that a pregnant woman was dragged into the bottom of the bus on an electric bicycle, and was rescued, claiming that her helmet saved her life. There were two lines of twisted words on the helmet, "I love you, wife." Just because of enough safety awareness and full love, it protected the life of her wife and the integrity of a family.
However, "knowing" can never be equated with "achieving". A public policy needs to be flexible and firm if it wants to start smoothly. Softness means that we should step by step to allow the public time to adapt. Relevant personnel of the provincial traffic police corps also said that at present, the province mainly corrects and educates riders who do not wear helmets. Just now, it is necessary to be resolute and resolute in the process of promotion, and not to dissipate the enthusiasm of public participation in the process of repeated hesitation. It is reported that Jiangsu has put electric vehicles into law with helmets. In this way, "hard and soft" can help develop safety habits and gradually make wearing safety helmets a conscious behavior.
