佩爾茲曼效應
編輯佩爾茲曼效應(英語:Peltzman effect),指企圖增加安全性的規範反而增加風險,得名自佩爾茲曼。1975年,佩爾茲曼在《汽車安全規範的效果》(The Effects of Automobile Safety Regulation)中提到「因為補償非常完善,導致規範幾乎沒有減少高速公路上的死亡案例。」[1] 佩爾茲曼宣稱規範最好沒用,否則反而會引起反效果。[2][3] 佩爾茲曼效應也會導致一項重分配效果,即無辜者承擔冒險者的風險,也就是道德風險。舉例而言,對於安全帶、碰撞區、防鎖死系統等安全規範,一位能容忍高風險的駕駛會將車開得越快、越粗心,最終導致行人傷亡的增加。[4]

This conclusion startled the road safety community and challenged the role of government in attempting to improve safety through regulation. In Peltzman's view, government regulation was useless and perhaps even counterproductive.

In general, safety regulation did decrease the probability of death for drivers, but this is offset by involving themselves in a riskier behavior, which reassigns the change of deaths from vehicle occupants to pedestrians
