摘要

汽车无处不在。大多数美国人每天至少有一次开车去上班、上学或做家务。汽车也从未如此安全过。新技术带来了可折叠的车架,以减少碰撞的影响,缓冲事故冲击的安全气囊,以及向驾驶员显示车辆后方情况的摄像头。此外,生活水平的提高使消费者能够购买更多的安全设备,并质疑汽车对环境的影响。虽然更清洁、更安全的汽车肯定有好处,但作为经济学家,我们必须问,所有这些规定让消费者付出了什么代价?成本有三个来源:工作场所安全监管、环境监管和消费者安全监管。在本文中,我们依次考察了每个领域,重点关注法规成本如何影响普通汽车消费者。

Regulating Automobiles: The Consequences for Consumers
Automobiles are ubiquitous. Most Americans take at least one car trip every day to get to work or school or to run household errands. The automobile has also never been safer. New technology has brought car frames that crumple to reduce the impact of a crash, airbags that cushion the blow of an accident, and cameras that show drivers what is behind the vehicle. In addition, rising standards of living have allowed consumers to purchase more safety equipment and to question the environmental impact of cars. While cleaner, safer automobiles certainly have benefits, as economists, we must ask, what do all these regulations cost the consumer? Costs arise from three sources: workplace safety regulation, environmental regulation, and consumer safety regulation. In this paper, we examine each area in turn, focusing on how the cost of regulations impacts the average automobile consumer.
