Chofoza noma Ithikithi ngumkhankaso wonyaka we-National Highway Traffic Safety umkhankaso wokwandisa ukusetshenziswa kwebhande lesihlalo. Kuphela amasonto ambalwa azungeze iSikhumbuzo Sosuku LweSikhumbuzo. Nansi ulwazi oludingayo ukwazi kusukela ku-Police Arkansas State mayelana nesenzo kanye nemithetho yebhande e-Arkansas. Ukuthola kabanzi mayelana nemithetho yekhanda likazwelonke, zama Buckle Up America, ikhasi lasekhaya elithi "Chofoza Kokuthi".
Izinhlangano eziningi zendawo zisebenzisa lesi sikhathi ukuhlola izihlalo zokuphepha ezimotweni ukuqinisekisa ukuthi zifakiwe kahle ngakho izingane zakho zingahamba ngokuphepha. Isibhedlela sezingane singakusiza kulo nyaka wonke.
Kungani?
Phakathi kuka-1997 no-1999, abantwana base-Arkansas abangamashumi amabili nanhlanu ubudala, abaneminyaka enganeni kuya kwengane ubudala, abangazange bahlonywe ohlelweni lokuvimbela ingane babulawa ezingozini zomgwaqo ezenzeka emigwaqweni yase-Arkansas nemigwaqo emikhulu. Abangaphezu kuka-800 abantwana abangaphansi kuka-4 balimala. Abantwana abangamashumi ayisishiyagalombili nesishiyagalolunye abaneminyaka engama-5 no-15 ubudala, abathweswe amabhande esikhwameni, bafa emgwaqweni we-Arkansas. Ukube kukhona ukuvimbela izingane noma izibhande zokuhlala, eziningi zalezi zingane zazingasindiswa noma zaphunyuka ngaphandle kokulimala.
Uyini Umthetho?
Umthetho wase-Arkansas udinga ukuthi zonke izingane ezineminyaka engaphansi kweminyaka eyishumi nesishiyagalolunye zikhishwe ngesibopho sokuphepha okufanelekile. Izingane ezineminyaka engaphansi kwengu-15 zidinga ukuba ziboshwe kuzo zombili izihlalo zangaphambi nangemuva.
Abantu abadala badinga ukuthi bahlehliswe uma behlala ezihlalweni zangaphambili.
Imithetho yesihlalo semoto yashintshwa ngo-2014. Izingane ezineminyaka engaphansi kwengu-6 ubudala noma ezilinganiselwa ngaphansi kwamakhilogremu ayisithupha kumele zivinjelwe ezikhungweni zokuphepha ezivunyelwe. Izihlalo zezimoto kufanele zifakwe kahle.
Ngo-Julayi ka-2009, umthetho washintshwa waba umthetho oyinhloko wecala.
Lokhu kusho ukuthi iziphathimandla zomthetho zingamisa izimoto futhi zikhishwe izikhalazo uma zingaboni abantu abagqoke izibhande zabo zokuhlala. Esikhathini esidlule, amaphoyisa kwakudingeka abe nesizathu esizwakalayo ngaphandle kokuphulwa komkhonto wokuhlala ukuze amise imoto futhi asho umhlukumezi. I-Arkansas yayisesizwe sama-27 esizweni ukuze sithole umthetho wesibhande esiphezulu-icala.
Yini Ehlukile Ngalezi Zimbalwa Zithi "Chofoza Noma Kumathikithi"?
Ngesikhathi sokusebenza kwezinsuku eziyisishiyagalolunye, iziphathimandla zomthetho zizosebenzisa izinyathelo zokuhlola ezingacabangi nezinye izindlela zokuphoqelela ukubeka ingane isihlalo sokuphepha kanye nemithetho yebhande.
Umthetho ojwayelekile usasebenza, bazobe sebewusebenzisa kakhulu. Uma amaphoyisa ebona ingane engavinjelwe, kuyoba amathuba okukudonsa. Ngezinye izinsuku eziningi, unethuba elihle lo mphoyisa angeke akudonsa ngoba unomntwana ongavinjelwe.
Ngingazifaka Kanjani Kangakanani?
Umuntu oyinhloko ngamunye okhokhelwa ukwephulwa kwebhande lesihlalo ngu-$ 25. Wonke umgibeli ophulwayo angahlawuliswa. Ukuphulwa kwebhande lesikhulu ngokuvamile akubhekwa njengokuhlukumeza okuhambayo, futhi ngokuvamile akubikwe enkampanini yakho yomshuwalense.
