Intego:
Hamwe n’iterambere ry’ubukungu bw’inganda, imodoka zitangira gukoreshwa ku bwinshi, umuhanda munini n’umuhanda munini nabyo birushaho kwitabwaho umunsi ku wundi, kandi bitangira gutera imbere. Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika zifite uburebure burebure bw’umuhanda n’uburebure bw’umuhanda, zakoze imihanda igera ku birometero 69.000, umuhanda wabaye igice cy’ingenzi cy’ubuzima bwa buri munsi bw’Abanyamerika. Ibihugu byo mu Burayi bw’Iburengerazuba n’Ubuyapani, ishingiro ry’imihanda ni ryiza, umuhanda nawo uba umuyoboro buhoro buhoro, ubwikorezi bwo mu muhanda bwabaye imbaraga nyamukuru mu gutwara abantu n’ibintu imbere mu gihugu. Nk’igihugu kiri mu nzira y’amajyambere, Ubushinwa bwaje ku mwanya wa kabiri ku isi umwaka ushize mu bijyanye n’uburebure bw’imihanda minini ifunguye ku modoka, ifite uburebure bwa kilometero zirenga 60.000 mu 2008. Ariko, bitewe n’ubunini bwabwo, ubucucike bw’imihanda minini ni buke cyane, imiterere y’imihanda nayo ni mibi.
Umuvuduko n'uburyo bworoshye bw'umuhanda munini byahinduye uko abantu batekereza ku gihe n'ahantu, bigabanya intera iri hagati y'uturere, kandi binoza imibereho y'abantu. Ariko, impanuka zikomeye zo mu muhanda mu muhanda ziratangaje, zakuruye ibitekerezo by'ibihugu byinshi ku isi, kandi zatangiye kuganira cyangwa gufata ingamba zijyanye no kwirinda.
Dukurikije ubushakashatsi bwakozwe n’ishyirahamwe ry’Abanyamerika ry’Abahanga mu by’Imodoka mu 2002, impuzandengo y’impanuka zo mu muhanda 260.000 muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika buri mwaka ziterwa n’umuvuduko muke w’amapine cyangwa amazi asohoka; 70% by’impanuka zo mu muhanda zibera mu muhanda munini ziterwa n’ipine yacitse; byongeye kandi, 75% by’impanuka zo mu mapine buri mwaka ziterwa n’ipine yacitse cyangwa idashyushye cyane. Imibare igaragaza ko impamvu nyamukuru y’ubwiyongere bw’impanuka zo mu muhanda ari ukugwa kw’ipine guterwa n’amapine mu gutwara imodoka ku muvuduko mwinshi. Dukurikije imibare, mu Bushinwa, 46% by’impanuka zo mu muhanda ziterwa n’amapine yacitse, aho imwe gusa mu mpanuka ari yo yagize 70% by’impanuka zose, ikaba ari umubare utangaje!
Mu gihe imodoka ikoresha umuvuduko mwinshi, kunanirwa kw'amapine ni cyo kintu kibi cyane kandi kigoye cyane gukumira ibyago byihishe by'impanuka, ni impamvu y'ingenzi itera impanuka zitunguranye. Uburyo bwo gukemura ikibazo cy'amapine, uburyo bwo kwirinda gucika kw'amapine, byabaye ikintu cy'ingenzi ku isi.
Ku itariki ya 1 Ugushyingo 2000, Perezida Clinton yashyize umukono ku itegeko rigena uburyo itegeko rigenga ubwikorezi rya Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika rihindura, amategeko ya leta asaba ko imodoka nshya zose zakozwe kuva mu 2003 zigira uburyo bwo kugenzura umuvuduko w'amapine (TPMS) nk'uko bisanzwe; Guhera ku ya 1 Ugushyingo 2006, imodoka zose zisabwa kunyura muri uyu muhanda zizaba zifite sisitemu yo kugenzura umuvuduko w'amapine (TPMS).
Muri Nyakanga 2001, Minisiteri y’Ubwikorezi ya Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika n’Ikigo cy’Igihugu Gishinzwe Umutekano mu Mihanda -NHTSA-RRB-TSA) basuzumiye hamwe uburyo bubiri bwo kugenzura umuvuduko w’amapine (TPMS) busanzweho mu rwego rwo gusubiza ibisabwa n’Inteko Ishinga Amategeko ku mategeko agenga TPMS y’ibinyabiziga, ku nshuro ya mbere, raporo ikoresha TPMS nk'ijambo ry’ingenzi kandi yemeza imikorere myiza n’ubushobozi bwo kugenzura neza TPMS. Nk’imwe muri sisitemu eshatu zikomeye z’umutekano, TPMS, hamwe na airbag na Anti-lock fering system (ABS), byamaze kwemerwa n’abaturage kandi byitabwaho bikwiye.
