Beijing Daily: Forbidden electronic cigarettes, cannot stop at the high -speed rail

2022-10-13

Recently, some netizens said that female passengers were found to have electrical cigarettes on the high -speed rail from Beijing to Zhangjiajie. On October 8th, the China Railway 12306 customer service responded that electronic cigarettes could be carried on the high -speed rail, but they could not smoke. Smoking on the high -speed rail was found or triggered the smoke alarm to deal with the police. According to China News Agency, in recent years, the upgraded version of the "smoking ban" has been released in recent years, and it is clear that the electronic cigarettes are also among the smoking ban in public places. Experts said that the ban on electronic cigarettes in public places should not be a fuzzy zone in law.


As we all know, the high -speed rail cannot smoke. The reason is that its fully enclosed structure, air circulation and circulation are automatically controlled through the computer. The smoke and fire alarm detection alarm system on the train will find potential safety hazards in time. Once the smoke triggers the alarm system, the train will be mandatory and slowly driving. If it is more serious, it must be stopped, resulting in different degrees of influence. The electronic cigarette will not only cause smoke to occur, but also easily cause safety risks such as battery explosion, smoke infiltration, and high temperature conduction. In February of this year, the Huainan South Station Police Station of Bengbu Railway Public Security Department received a report from the train staff. Passenger Yang secretly hid in the toilet to suck electronic cigarettes with a chance, causing the train smoke alarm device to call the police. The train dropped from 300 kilometers per hour to It runs at 230 kilometers per hour. The Railway Public Security Organ was punished by the Railway Public Security Organ for 5 days for violating the "Punishment Law of the People's Republic of China" for 5 days.


However, many people who are warned or punished in public places often emphasize their "innocent". Many people think that "electronic cigarettes are not cigarettes". In 2011, the "Implementation Rules for Health Management Regulations of Public Places" issued in 2011 made clear regulations on the ban on smoking in public places, but did not clearly cover electronic cigarettes. It is precisely because of the ambiguous identity that some people have a cognitive misunderstanding or fluke.


The dangers of electronic cigarettes have been known in recent years. In November 2021, the State Council issued the "Decision on Modifying the Implementation Regulations of the People's Republic of China", which clarified that "new types of tobacco products such as electronic cigarettes refer to the relevant provisions of these regulations"; Implementation on October 1, 2022. These laws and regulations have been regulated from the technical content of the product. Since the product standards are equal, their management standards should be increasingly clear. Electronic cigarettes are not harmless, and electronic cigarettes in public places may indeed cause damage to others and the public environment. This has more and more factual basis.


Instead of "grasping one punishment" by the transportation, medical and health units, and encountering an explanation, it is better to set the specific prohibition of electronic cigarettes from the legal level and solve the public from the legal level. Electronic cigarettes cannot be a blind spot and pain point for building smoke -free environments, and clear interpretations should be given from the legal level.
