Vehículos de segunda mano

The document highlights the environmental and safety risks associated with the global trade of used vehicles, noting that between 2015 and 2018, 14 million light used vehicles were exported, with 80% going to low- and middle-income countries and over half to Africa. It asserts that vehicles with weak import regulations correlate with higher traffic mortality rates and contribute significantly to urban air pollution through PM2.5 and NOx emissions. The text calls for developed nations to stop exporting vehicles that fail environmental and safety inspections and for importing nations to adopt stricter quality standards to facilitate the acquisition of cleaner, safer fleets, including hybrid and electric options.

• Between 2015 and 2018, 14 million light used vehicles were exported globally, with 80% destined for low- and middle-income countries and more than half going to Africa.
• There is a direct correlation between weak or very weak regulations on used vehicle imports and very high traffic accident mortality rates.
• Used vehicles often fail to meet safety or emission requirements, contributing to urban air pollution via fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx).
