Gwangyang Fire Station Conducts Fire Truck Right-of-Way Training

Targeting Major Congestion Areas in the District Such as Bus Terminals and Traditional Markets

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Heo Seon-sik] Jeonnam Gwangyang Fire Station (Chief Choi Hyun-kyung) announced that it will conduct a fire truck passage training at 2 p.m. on the 17th to strengthen firefighting response capabilities for disaster preparedness such as fires.

This fire truck passage training will use masks on fire vehicles and promotional placards for yielding the way, targeting major congestion areas in the jurisdiction such as the bus terminal and traditional markets.

The guidelines for yielding the way to fire trucks are ▲ At or near intersections, temporarily stop at the right edge of the road avoiding the intersection ▲ On one-way streets, temporarily stop at the right edge ▲ On one-lane roads, drive by yielding the lane as much as possible to the right edge or temporarily stop

▲ On roads with three or more lanes in one direction, emergency vehicles proceed in the second lane while general vehicles yield by driving in the first and third lanes (left and right).

Gwangyang Fire Station (Chief Choi Hyun-kyung) said, “Through this fire truck passage training, active cooperation from Gwangyang citizens is necessary to prevent illegal parking or failure to yield on fire lanes, so that not even a second is delayed in emergency situations and the situation does not worsen.”
