Kwiintsuku zakutshanje, umba wengxolo oveliswe nguIzithuthi zombane eziphantsiiye yaba yindawo ekugxilwe kuyo, ukuphakamisa imibuzo malunga nokuba ezi zithuthi kufuneka zivelise izandi eziphicothiweyo. I-US lendlela ye-US yoMgaqo-nkqubo weZithuthi (i-NHSA) isandula ukukhutshwa inkcazo kwizithuthi zombane eziphantsi, ukutshintshisela ingqalelo ebanzi eluntwini. I-Arhente iqinisekisa ukuba izithuthi zombane eziphantsi zesantya kufuneka zivele ingxolo eyaneleyo ngelixa intshukumo yokwazisa abahambi ngeenyawo kunye nabanye abasebenzisi bendlela. Le nkcazo ingenise indlela enzulu yokhuseleko ekukhuseleni nasekuhambeni kwezithuthi eziphantsi zombane eziphantsi eziphantsi kwiindawo ezisezidolophini.
Xa uhamba ngesantya esingaphantsi kweekhilomitha ezingama-30 ngeyure (iikhilomitha ezili-19 ngeyure), ingxolo ye-injini yezithuthi zombane iphantsi, kwaye kwezinye iimeko, phantse angafikeleli. Oku kubeka ingozi enokubakho, ngakumbi kubantu "abantu abangaboniyo, abahambi ngeenyawo ngombono oqhelekileyo, kunye nabahamba ngebhayisikile." Ngenxa yoko, i-NHTSA ibongoza abavelisi bezithuthi zombane ukuba bathathele ingqalelo imvuko eyahlukileyo kwiSigaba sokuyila ukuqinisekisa ukuba nengqondo esebenzayo kubantu abahamba ngeenyawo xa beqhuba ngesantya esiphezulu.
Ukusebenza okuthe cwakaIzithuthi zombane eziphantsiIphulukene neMiluleko ebalulekileyo ebalulekileyo, kodwa ikwabangele uthotho lweenkxalabo ezinxulumene nokhuseleko. Ezinye iingcali ziyaphikisana ukuba kwiindlela ezisezidolophini, ngakumbi kwiindlela ezixineneyo, izithuthi zombane eziphantsi zisilela isandi esaneleyo sokulumkisa abahamba ngeenyawo, ukwandisa umngcipheko wokungqubana okungalindelekanga. Ke ngoko, ingcebiso ye-NHTSA ibonwa njengophuculo olujolise ekuphuculeni ukuqinisekiswa kwezithuthi zombane ezisakhasayo ngexesha lokusebenza ngaphandle kokulalanisa ukusebenza kwendalo.
Kuyaphawuleka ukuba abavelisi bezithuthi zombane eziphantsi sele beqale ukujongana nalo mba ngokubandakanya iinkqubo zengxolo ezizezinye kwimodeli entsha. Ezi nkqubo zijolise ekuyileni i-injini izandi zezithuthi zemveli zemveli, zenza ukuba izithuthi zombane eziphantsi ziphawuleka kakhulu ngelixa ihamba. Esi sisombululo sinobuchule sinika umaleko ongezelelweyo wokhuseleko kwizithuthi zombane kwidolophu ezidolophini.
Nangona kunjalo, kukho nabagxeki abathandabuza iingcebiso zeNHTSA. Abanye bathi, imeko ethe cwaka, ngakumbi kwisantya esisezantsi, yenye yeempawu zabo ezithandekayo kubathengi, kwaye zazisa ngengxolo enkulu, kunye nengxolo yengxolo inokujongela phantsi lo phawu. Ke ngoko, ukubetha ibhalansi phakathi kokuqinisekisa ukhuseleko lwabahambi ngeenyawo kunye nokugcina iimpawu zendalo kwizithuthi zombane kuhlala kungumngeni ongxamisekileyo.
Ukuqukumbela, umba wengxolo ukusukaIzithuthi zombane eziphantsiixhaphake kakhulu kwingqwalaselo yoluntu. Njengoko izithuthi zombane ziyaqhubeka nokuthandwa, ukufumana isisombululo esiqinisekisa ukhuseleko lwabahambi ngeengozi ngelixa sigcina iimpawu zabo zokusingqongileyo ziya kuba ngumceli mngeni wokwabelana nabavelisi kunye neearhente zikarhulumente. Mhlawumbi ikamva liya kungqina ukusetyenziswa kwetekhnoloji eyongezelelweyo ngakumbi ukufumana isisombululo esifanelekileyo esikhusela abahambi ngeenyawo ngaphandle kokulalanisa indalo ethe tye.
