A self -proclaimed "shipping company" of abandonment of drunk driving accidents in Yachimata City (Fujio Morita) -Perspiring -Yahoo! News

　On the afternoon of June 28, a truck rushed into an elementary school student on the way to school in Yachimata City, Chiba Prefecture, killing two children, causing a serious injury.He said that he drank and drank alcohol purchased at a convenience store in the car at lunch.It is no exaggeration to say "incident" instead of "accident".I pray for a child who has been deprived of a young life, and I hope that the injured children will be a little early.

　Here, in connection with the drunk driving accident, we decided to cover the safety management of the truck transport industry, which is not well known to ordinary people.In fact, it was not the truck of the transportation company that the driver in the accident was driving.It was not a white number, a private truck, which was not a green number of a business truck that was transported for a fee (receiving fare) with a business permission from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.However, it is difficult for ordinary people to understand the difference between private (white number) and sales (green number), and most people are not distinguished.

　An easy -to -understand illustration is "white taku".The taxi is white on the green license plate with white letters and numbers.The private cars are green on the white plate and numbers.If you take a fare with this private car and carry a passenger, you will be punished for "white taku".Paid acts with white numbers trucks are also illegal.

　"When I came to the company at 2:30 am, I had a silent phone call around 3 o'clock, and when I re -called on the recorded mobile phone number, it was an answering machine (president of the shipping company in Yachimata City).

　The company in Yachimata City was a driver who had been drunk driving and had a driver who was sent to a dangerous driving injury under the Automotive Cosmetic Catalitaria.The transportation company that had a silent phone call was in the same city.

　Not just silent calls.When I answer the phone, I said, "Is the house a transportation company that caused an accident?"President)."I was nervous for a moment because I was saying that it was a shipping company in Yachimachi in the news, but the driver at home would not be drunk," said the logistics staff of the business partner who called me. ") Say.

　In this way, it is easy to be mistaken for a truck accident as a vehicle of a shipping company.For this reason, he hears a voice saying, "It is annoying to be seen with the same eyes as a company that caused an accident in drunk driving" (a shipping company in Chiba Prefecture).In addition, the local Chiba Prefectural Truck Association and other local truck associations also say, "It's hard to drink and drive. What are the industry doing?"There is a protest phone call."There was also a silent call" (same).

　The All Japan Truck Association (Zenkyo) also called for "protest" from the general public, but from the industry, "Some of the accidents occurred due to drinking driving in some parts.You should protest because it has been reported. "In response to this, the Zenkyo protested to some of the news agencies, saying, "I am regrettable because it is a biased report to the green number."

　In this drunk driving accident, there were some conditions that would further confuse business and private trucks.First, the company where the driver who had the accident had worked was the corporate name "Nanbu Transport".In addition, the comments issued by the president of Nambu, the parent company, wrote, "A traffic accident caused a serious drunk driving with an employee of our lucky subsidiary ...".

　In addition, "Nanbu Transport" also issued driver recruitment advertisements.Some recruitment sites have been deleted after the accident, but looking at the recruiting sites that have not been deleted as of 9:00 on July 17, they are recruiting for "large truck drivers (for reinforced)".It is the work of transporting building reinforced materials from the parent company's Chiba factory to the construction site in Kanto prefecture.The number of employees is eight (7 full -time).In the "industry" column, it is described as "specific cargo automobile transportation business".

　The specific cargo car transportation business is a cargo car transportation business that carries a specific business partner for a fee.However, it can be said that this company was a conviction that he was aware of the "white tiger" business because he claims to be a specific cargo car transportation business with his private (white) number.

　Many media also reported that the driver of the shipping company was drunk driving.The staff of the truck association in the prefecture in the northern Kanto area received a call from a news program that was broadcast late at night on a key station in Tokyo just after 19:00 on the day of the accident."I happened to be overtime and answered the phone. I answered various questions and explained the differences between private and sales trucks, but I didn't seem to understand well," he said.

　One of the specific examples that even the media officials do not understand well is a newspaper reporter column that was uploaded on the morning of July 14.In Yachimata City, "by professional drivers ...", it is an expression as if an accident caused by drunk driving occurred on the school road, and it was an accident caused by a driver of a shipping company.It has been 16 days since the accident occurred.

　Why was the transportation company in Yachimata City at the beginning coming to work at 2:30 am?There was a qualified operating manager in the company to call the driver departing early in the morning.

　Transportation providers will apply the Road Traffic Law (Road Traffic Law) and the Lotus Car Transportation Business Law (Business Law).The Road Traffic Law is the National Police Agency (Public Safety Commission), and the Business Law is the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's jurisdiction.On the other hand, private trucks are applied only by road traffic law.

　The transportation carrier must appoint a "operating manager" from a qualified operating manager to ensure the safety of business automobiles (up to 29 or more, 30 or more units every 30 units.Add).In addition, the cargo mini car transportation provider sets the "operation management manager", but does not need the qualification of the operating manager.

　On the other hand, in private trucks (apart from private buses), 5 or more (automatic motorcycles are 0.5 cars for single motorcycles), "safe driving managers" have the requirements specified by the Cabinet Office Ordinance.Must be appointed.In addition, there is one more than 10 automobile driving agency operators every 10 units.

　There are various tasks that both the operating manager (for sales) and the safe driving manager (private use) should do for safety management, but the details are omitted.However, in the case of operating trucks, it is necessary to perform pre -crew roll calls, post -crew, intermediate roll calls and strict management, guidance, and supervision.There is also a check for drinking, and an alcohol detector is required for a commercial truck.However, there is a confirmation of drinking alcohol for private use, but it is not required to check with alcohol detectors.

　The parent company representative in response to the media reported that there was no safe driving manager and had not checked alcohol detectors.Therefore, it seems that those who watch the news have been misunderstanding that all trucks are the same and the management of the shipping company is poor.

　The operating manager of Yachimata City mentioned earlier, even in the midnight or early morning, has a face -to -face call and checks with alcohol detectors, but not only that but also robot roll calls.Robots accumulate in one month, one week, the previous day's restraint, working time, driving time, break time, body temperature, pulse rate, and other data.For example, from the end of the previous day to work hours today, if it does not meet the prescribed interval, it will be discontinued in the face authentication that "you will not be able to go to work unless you are in any time."We can automatically check health management.

　In this way, sales trucks are working to eliminate drinking driving at each company.As a result, in the 10 years from 2010 to 19 years, the number of business drunk drunks decreased from 137 to 96.The number of accidents due to drunk driving has decreased from 34 to 28 (the National Police Agency "Traffic Accident Statistics" and the Traffic Accident Analysis Center "Transportation Statistics").In addition, transport companies are working to do zero drunk driving.

　However, the number of vehicles holding cars (trucks) with cars (trucks) at the end of March 2020 was 1,482,364 units for large vehicles, medium -sized cars, semi -medium -sized vehicles, ordinary cars, and trailers, and 6,211,591 units for private use., The number of private trucks is overwhelmingly large (all tasks are created independently from the automotive inspection registration information association data).

　In order to eliminate drunk driving by trucks, it is necessary to work on private trucks as well as sales trucks.
