¿Cómo trabajan los investigadores y los fabricantes de autos para ayudar a proteger a los peatones con una innovadora alianza ?

PRESS RELEASE - Tue, 17 May 2022 14:50:23

— Por Enrique Kogan - Syndicate Auto News Wire —

SOURCE: NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE

MIAMI, FL — 17 de Mayo, 2022 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — A medida que las carreteras se han vuelto más concurridas, los riesgos para los peatones, ciclistas y otras personas que comparten esas calles también han aumentado.

En los Estados Unidos en 2019, un peatón murió cada 85 minutos en un accidente de tráfico, por lo que esta asombrosa estadística debe abordarse seriamente.

Volkswagen ha tomado la iniciativa de hacerlo

Para ayudar a abordar las tendencias relacionadas con los peatones, los fabricantes de automóviles, las instituciones académicas y las agencias gubernamentales, incluidas las fuerzas del orden público en Michigan, formaron la Alianza para la prevención de lesiones de usuarios de carreteras vulnerables (VIPA).

VIPA, que incluye a Volkswagen Group of America como socio fundador, se dedicó a recopilar y estudiar datos detallados sobre la seguridad de los peatones para ayudar a encontrar formas de reducir las colisiones relacionadas con peatones, ya que los investigadores de seguridad de VIPA se refieren a los peatones como "usuarios vulnerables de la vía".

Utilizando Michigan como enfoque, VIPA creó dos bases de datos clave para ayudar a los investigadores. El primero monitorea muestras de choques informados por la policía que involucran a peatones y ciclistas y, cuando es posible, coincide con datos de lesiones de hospitales tratantes.

El segundo proporciona una reconstrucción de choques seleccionados, con datos detallados previos al choque, del vehículo y médicos, para ayudar a encontrar tendencias que podrían conducir a una mejor protección de peatones y ciclistas.

Jason Gainey, Gerente Sénior de Seguridad y Cumplimiento de Vehículos de la Oficina de Seguridad de Vehículos de Volkswagen Group of America, dice que VIPA brinda información única y es una de las únicas fuentes de dichos datos en América del Norte.

“Los datos del mundo real como estos juegan un papel crucial para determinar cómo los legisladores y la industria pueden proteger mejor a los peatones, ciclistas y otros usuarios de la vía”, dijo Gainey.

“Nos brinda información para comprender mejor el problema, por qué y cómo ocurren estas colisiones con peatones y qué se puede aprender para ayudar a mejorar los diseños de nuestros vehículos para prevenir, o al menos minimizar, la gravedad de la interacción entre peatones y vehículos en el futuro”.

El Dr. Stewart Wang de VIPA habló sobre cómo proporcionar esos datos:

“Nuestro principal objetivo con este proyecto es proporcionar datos procesables para mejorar el diseño del vehículo y las características de mejora de la seguridad para los usuarios vulnerables de la carretera”.

Él dice que los datos serán utilizados por los "ingenieros automotrices, formuladores de políticas y planificadores de transporte que necesitan datos representativos e imparciales del mundo real sobre los cuales tomar decisiones de diseño que mejoren la seguridad para proteger mejor a los usuarios vulnerables de la carretera".

Volkswagen accede y consulta los datos de manera rutinaria en su búsqueda por ayudar a que los peatones estén más seguros.

Así como la ciencia de la seguridad en choques para los ocupantes de un vehículo observa de cerca cómo reacciona un cuerpo a la fuerza dentro del automóvil, los investigadores que estudian los choques entre peatones y vehículos hacen lo mismo con el trauma que ocurre fuera del vehículo.

Lo que, es más, es cómo estos investigadores de seguridad automotriz están utilizando la gran cantidad de datos que se recopilan.

Gracias a las habilidades y análisis únicos de VIPA, los hallazgos que hacen hoy pueden ayudar a desarrollar los sistemas de mejora de la seguridad del mañana, no solo para mitigar los efectos de estas colisiones, sino incluso potencialmente para evitarlas por completo.

El NCAP (Programa de evaluación de automóviles nuevos) de 2022 de la Administración Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico en las Carreteras (NHTSA) dedicó tiempo a centrarse no solo en los sistemas de seguridad contra colisiones que monitorean lo que hay alrededor del automóvil, sino también en los sistemas de monitoreo del conductor que se enfocan en lo que sucede dentro del vehículo.

Específicamente, le dedican tiempo a concentrarse en los sistemas que podrían ayudar a mitigar el potencial daño y/o el peligro que podría causar un conductor que actúa de manera errática (causado por un conductor ebrio, por ejemplo).

Los reguladores de seguridad también utilizan los datos para elaborar nuevas reglas para mejorar la seguridad de los peatones, y Gainey dijo que tener una relación cercana de trabajo con los datos que le proporciona información, y que se puede usar para crear reglas y marcar una diferencia real en el campo.

Como parte de la Agenda Unificada de otoño del 2021, que es una hoja de ruta pública para la posible reglamentación futura, el Departamento de Transporte de EE. UU. y la NHTSA han indicado que es probable que publiquen un aviso de reglamentación propuesta, que recomendará requisitos para proteger aún más a los peatones en caso de impacto con los vehículos.

Esto está diseñado para hacerse en coordinación con el Reglamento Técnico Global No. 9, la novena parte de un acuerdo de las Naciones Unidas del 1998, que estandarizó las pautas de seguridad de los automóviles en todo el mundo y se ocupa específicamente de la seguridad de los peatones.

Además, como parte de la Ley de Inversión en Infraestructura y Empleos, promulgada por el presidente Biden en noviembre del 2021, el Congreso exige que la NHTSA emita un aviso público y comentarios sobre las tecnologías de protección y prevención de choques para futuros vehículos, una medida que podría ver el número de muertes de peatones disminuir significativamente.

Mientras tanto, el gobierno también tiene proyectos de ley sobre la mesa para considerar la armonización de los requisitos de desempeño de los Estados Unidos con otros países y sindicatos (por ejemplo, Gran Bretaña y la Unión Europea).

Según Gainey, Volkswagen espera utilizar la información derivada de sus numerosos estudios de casos para ayudar a la empresa a trabajar con VIPA para mejorar la seguridad de todos los usuarios de la carretera, no solo de los que están detrás del volante.

🇺🇸🇨🇺🇵🇷🗽 What a way to begin Hispanic Heritage Month and commemorate 25 years since 9/11 in New York.

Thank you to everyone who has read, commented, and shared. This story has now reached around 2 million people across platforms and traveled around the world.

This trip became an emotional homecoming. People traveled to New York not only to remember, but to return pieces of my family’s history.

The most precious was a photograph of Dad and me during my first summer working in his office on the 19th floor of the South Tower. We believed it was lost forever on 9/11. Ms. Carole, one of Dad’s secretaries—whom he helped survive that day—had kept a duplicate. After her passing, her grandson Frankie found it, along with my World Trade Center pass marked 2/19 (South Tower, 19th Floor). I’ve now been asked to submit this history to the National September 11 Memorial & Museum.

I also learned more about Dad’s life: my Cuban father was an early supporter and organizer of the National Puerto Rican Day Parade; his baseball career led to ceremonial first pitches; and in 1972 he received the American Heritage Award during a “Spanish Night” in New York. In 2025, I received the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award—continuing the legacy of service Mom and Dad began.

Agent Lee shared another chapter: when his family’s Chinatown restaurant was targeted by anti-Asian violence, my parents helped bring the community back—and I, a little girl in a She-Ra shirt, worked beside them asking, “What would Jesus do?” His family called me their 貴人 (Guìrén): a benefactor who arrives at the right moment.

The white suit and black dress I wore in New York belonged to Mom. Wearing them felt like carrying her with me.

As an only child, it has been my greatest honor to have always been by my late parents' side throughout my life and to care for them in their final years. I’m humbled that this story has connected us across different generations and borders.

Thank you for reminding me: “You might be far, but you are never forgotten.”

🇺🇸 My Father Survived 9/11—But 9/11 Ultimately Took His Life.

🇺🇸 Twenty-five years ago, my father, José Quintero Ramos, was on the 19th floor of the South Tower when the North Tower was struck. Dad had survived the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and knew something was wrong. He insisted his secretaries and coworkers leave. Holding hands, they formed a human chain and began descending the stairs.

🇺🇸 Then the second plane struck their tower.

🇺🇸 The lights went dark. Smoke, ash, and debris filled the hot stairwell. Dad gave others the handkerchiefs he always carried so they could breathe, leaving only his arm to cover his own face.

🇺🇸 As firefighters and first responders climbed upward, Dad thanked them and squeezed their shoulders. One young firefighter rested his face in Dad’s hand—like a son receiving a father’s blessing. Dad never saw him again.

🇺🇸 Dad and his coworkers escaped and crossed the street only moments before the South Tower collapsed at 9:59 a.m. Those with him later said they would not have survived without his insistence. His courage saved lives.

🇺🇸 For more than ten hours, we did not know whether he was alive.

🇺🇸 Covered in ash, blood, and cuts, he walked for hours across the Brooklyn Bridge to the Cathedral Basilica of St. James, where I was baptized. A priest wiped his face, embraced him, and prayed.

🇺🇸 Our family was blessed with nearly 19 more years—but Dad was never the same. He ultimately died from respiratory failure caused by the toxic air he breathed that day. He is now officially recognized as a 9/11 victim.

🇺🇸 On this 25th anniversary, I remain honor-bound as his daughter to tell his story—especially as 9/11 moves from living memory into history.

🇺🇸 9/11 did not end on September 11, 2001. Its toll continues whenever another survivor or responder dies from a related illness.

🇺🇸 May we remember those lost that day, those lost in the years since, and everyone still suffering.

🇺🇸 Daddy, your courage lives on. We will never forget. 🤍🕊️

🗽 🇺🇸 Daddy, I’ve returned to our home state to represent you at both private and public official 25th anniversary September 11th remembrance events in New York. 
🗽 🇺🇸 Your little girl is traveling solo, but safeguarded at each event by a private security team that has been prearranged for me—just another example of God’s favor and how our (good) reputation has preceded us. 
🗽 🇺🇸 It’s a reaffirmation of your protection over me still and a nostalgic reflection of the times when we all traveled together during our careers. 
🗽 🇺🇸 It is my honor to continue being your daughter and to carry the legacy. 🤍🕊️

🤍 🇨🇺 🇺🇸 🕊️ Grief and Daddy’s Little Girl.

Daddy, six years ago today, you entered eternity. Your courage on 9/11 helped others survive but ultimately cost you your life. You are now officially recognized among its victims.

Mommy passed in January. Nine months later came my MS diagnosis. A year later, on September 6, I lost you—five days before 9/11. Oh, September. We used to be friends because of fall and all things pumpkin. Not anymore.

This photo takes me back outside St. Patrick’s Cathedral. You were about to speak beside Rev. Jesse Jackson at a rally for 7,000 workers displaced by sugar refinery closures. I was seven. You handed me the mic, and I joked that kids loved sugar, families needed jobs, and we had to “keep hope alive.” I only wanted to make you proud—and get the steak sandwich and ice cream you’d promised near the World Trade Center.

Grief doesn’t take a holiday. “The death of a beloved is an amputation.” —C.S. Lewis

My parents taught me to serve and bloom where God planted me. Joshua’s special-needs diagnosis turned my grief into advocacy and a nonprofit for families. Service is our legacy and biblical calling.

But the Church must do better after loss—not only at funerals, but through the months, years, birthdays, and anniversaries. Grief is lifelong, not a race. Heaven doesn’t erase how deeply we miss their presence. Shepherding means calling, listening, and showing up so no one feels invisible or alone.

To those touched by how I honor my parents, thank you. To anyone grieving a loved one, disability, or special-needs parenting: I see you. You’re not alone. Jeremiah 29:11.

To the sweet mama in the UK: throw the plates if you need to. Jesus wept. Jesus got angry. He understands. Call me.

I know Mommy and Daddy are proud, yet my heart and soul are heavy. As the 25th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, I’ll go to NYC alone to honor Daddy.

Te amamos para siempre. 🤍

P.S. If anyone hears the rapture trumpets while I’m gone, tell God I have a VIP Express ticket—and I don’t mind pushing a few people out of the way. 🥹😇😂
