In recent years, the intelligent assisted driving function of automobiles in China has been iteratively upgraded, and some intelligent connected cars have been equipped with blue lights on the outside of the body to identify the working status of intelligent assisted driving. Simply put, a blue light indicates that the car is in a “smart assisted driving” state. However, the news that "Little Blue Light" non-compliance may be banned has been hotly searched, causing widespread concern and discussion. The problem of "small blue light" comes from the details of light brightness, installation location, etc. The China Automobile Standardization Research Institute responded that there is an abuse of light in the current "small blue light", which is easy to cause safety risks. Will the "Little Blue Light" still work in the future? What should I do in the future for cars with "Little Blue Lanterns" that have already been sold? The specific information is as follows: The national standard does not allow the blue exterior car light "small blue light" to be disputed for compliance. The China Automobile Standardization Research Institute issued a response to the "small blue light" problem, saying that the current "small blue light" has misuse of lighting, which is prone to cause safety risks. The "small blue light" turned on at night is easy for other road participants to produce glare and glare, especially interfering with the judgment of the surrounding drivers; vehicles with this indicator are more likely to be blocked by other owners and followed up at close range, increasing the risk of road traffic. In China, GB 4785-2019 "Regulations on the Installation of External Lighting and Light Signaling Devices for Automobiles and Trailers" has not yet made clear requirements for the use of "small blue lights", but according to this standard, in principle, external lighting and light signaling devices other than those defined in this standard should not be used. Experts in related fields explain that sometimes turning on the "small blue light" increases the probability of traffic accidents for vehicles. For example, some curious people will go to the crowd, follow the "little blue light" vehicle, and intentionally go to Gassai. The reporter inquired about the above national standards and found that the national standard has been implemented since 2020. It mainly regulates the installation requirements of automobile external lighting and light signal devices. There are clear provisions for the colors of automobile external lamps and light signal devices. The colors involved mainly include white, yellow, red and amber, and do not include blue. Some netizens think that "little blue light" is not standardized and should be banned; some netizens think that "little blue light" is a good thing, but now it has become light pollution. Some insiders have suggested that car companies can reuse the "small blue light" function to compliant turn signals or daytime running lights through OTA (new energy vehicle remote online upgrade system) upgrades and other means. In this regard, experts said that it is technically convenient. Now there are many colors of car lights. As long as you set the code on the software, the "little blue light" will be turned off. The "small blue light" does not mean that the vehicle is fully taken over. The driver is still the first responsible person. At present, more than ten brands in China have been equipped with this configuration in their models, covering the full price range from 100,000 yuan family cars to million-class luxury SUVs. Some car companies have said that they have received the information and will strictly follow the regulations of the country, waiting for further requirements from the country. However, the official rectification plan has not yet been formally introduced for the models with "Little Blue Light" installed in the sold vehicles. Experts point out that for stock vehicles that have been sold, there is a high probability that the "small blue light" will be solved by OTA shutdown or upgrade. In addition, car companies, car sales companies, etc. also need to bear the obligation to inform the owner or even compensate. Experts introduced that car companies should modify product data sheets as soon as possible, conduct unified training for 4S store dealers, and stop promoting "small blue lights". If some consumers and owners have already placed orders, you can notify them in time. If the consumer doesn't accept, you can help cancel the order. Industry insiders said that with the "little blue light" on, some drivers are prone to misunderstand that the responsibility belongs entirely to the car company. However, at present, the intelligent driving models sold in the Chinese market basically belong to Level 2 partial automatic driving, which belongs to the combined driving assistance system. The system can only undertake some basic driving operation tasks, such as controlling the speed, lane maintenance, etc. The driver is still the ultimate responsible subject. Experts said that whether it is autonomous driving or manual driving, the right to use the road is the same, there is no "small blue light" on, the car is in automatic assisted driving, and the human-driven car is about to let go. A “little blue light” on in the event of a traffic accident cannot be a reason to evade responsibility. At present, intelligent driving in China is in the stage of rapid popularization. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology expects that by 2030, high-level autonomous driving functions will achieve large-scale market applications, and urban navigation assisted driving functions are expected to become mainstream configurations. With the further upgrading and popularization of intelligent driving functions in the future, where will the "little blue light" go? The China Automobile Standardization Research Institute pointed out that although there are certain risks in the "small blue light", at the same time, relevant international organizations are conducting research on the "small blue light", and there are still controversies about the safety gains and potential risks generated by it. The National Automotive Standardization Technical Committee is carrying out the development and revision of the above standards under the guidance of the competent authorities.
