[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] The top-ranked member of the People Power Party entered training as trainee number 14 for private taxi drivers.

Lee Jun-seok, leader of the People Power Party, who took a summer vacation, enrolled in private taxi transfer training on the 9th at the Sangju Traffic Safety Experience Center under the Korea Transportation Safety Authority in Sangju, Gyeongbuk Province.

Having spent the previous night at a motel in Sangju, Lee arrived at the center around 8:40 a.m. and registered as trainee number 14 before starting the training.

He must participate in training every day from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. for five days until the 13th, completing a total of 40 hours to obtain a private taxi license.

Since the revision of the Enforcement Rules of the Passenger Transport Service Act in April last year, individuals who have a certain period of accident-free driving experience and complete traffic safety education conducted by the Korea Transportation Safety Authority can obtain a private taxi license.

An opportunity came to Lee. He had previously stated his plan to drive a private taxi and listen to public sentiment from passengers.

On the day, Lee said, “After completing the training, I plan to get a private taxi and drive it in the evenings or on weekends after work to listen to public sentiment.”

He added, “It will also help in devising taxi-related policies. I will diligently participate in the training.”
