Boseong Fire Station Urges Caution for Agricultural Machinery Safety Accidents During Farming Season

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Boseong Fire Station (Chief Jo Je-chun) warned on the 12th to be cautious of safety accidents as the full-scale farming season in spring approaches, anticipating an increase in agricultural machinery safety accidents.

Agricultural machinery safety accidents are repeated every year due to the aging farming population and narrow farm roads, and unlike regular automobiles, agricultural machinery lacks special safety devices, resulting in a fatality rate about four times higher than general traffic accidents. Therefore, compliance with safety rules to prevent accidents is essential.

To prevent agricultural machinery accidents, it is necessary to ▲ thoroughly inspect before and after using agricultural machinery ▲ familiarize oneself with operating instructions ▲ prohibit driving agricultural machinery after drinking ▲ be cautious of physical contact with rotating parts such as belts ▲ comply with traffic laws when driving on roads.

Jo Je-chun, Chief of Boseong Fire Station, urged, “Safety accidents involving agricultural machinery during the farming season can lead to casualties due to minor carelessness, so please be sure to follow safety rules.”
