智驾小蓝灯"滥用"，国家出手了

针对智驾小蓝灯存在的安全隐患，中国汽车标准化研究院宣布启动GB 4785《汽车及挂车外部照明和光信号装置的安装要求》标准的制修订工作1。工信部自第410批产品公告申报起，对搭载小蓝灯的车型一律不予通过产品公告1。

当前小蓝灯的主要问题在于缺乏统一规范，各车企的亮度和频闪标准不一致，导致夜间容易产生眩光和道路光污染1。部分驾驶员利用小蓝灯试探自动驾驶系统的反应边界，引发了交通事故1。GB 4785—2019标准原则上不应使用该标准未定义的外部照明和光信号装置1。工信部下一步将研讨处理已售带小蓝灯车辆的相关措施1。

China's automotive standardization body has launched enforcement measures against the widespread misuse of blue indicator lights on autonomous vehicles. 1 The China Automobile Standardization Research Institute has initiated a revision of GB 4785, the national standard governing automotive external lighting and light-signaling devices, to address safety and design inconsistencies plaguing the technology. 1

Beginning with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's 410th batch of vehicle announcements, no vehicles equipped with blue autonomous driving indicator lights will be approved for entry into the market. 1 The crackdown stems from significant problems with the current implementation of these lights: manufacturers have adopted vastly different brightness levels and flicker frequencies with no unified standard, resulting in nighttime glare and light pollution that compromise road safety. 1 More troubling still, some drivers have reportedly exploited the lights to test the reaction boundaries of autonomous driving systems, leading to traffic accidents. 1

The existing GB 4785—2019 standard prohibits the use of external lighting and signaling devices not explicitly defined within its specifications. 1 Moving forward, the ministry plans to develop measures for addressing vehicles already sold with these non-compliant blue lights. 1
