| 摘要： | The philosophy behind the walk-around check (see pp30-31)is to never assume that a key component of a vehicle is safe. If in doubt, check, to be sure. Safety can only be confirmed through direct observation. This is a longstanding approach to safety of commercial vehicles, and it works - as long as the checklist is a limited (smallish) number. However, the total number of functional parameters now under digital control on a vehicle continues to rise. Modern vehicles employ ECUs (electronic control units) to manage every major vehicle system (such as powertrain, exhaust, braking), and that continues to grow. Continental has announced that starting this month it is factory-fitting TPMS sensors into its entire range of Conti Urban bus tyres, a claimed first. Partly, this responds to a European directive coming in 2024. But it is also a sign of the times. We are deluged by data. |
