[Photo] Complete Ban on Parking and Stopping in School Zones Starting Today

On the first day of the revised Road Traffic Act enforcement, which includes prohibiting parking and stopping in no-parking zones including Child Protection Zones and mandates special traffic safety education for drivers who cause traffic accidents in these zones, students are attending school at an elementary school in Seoul on the 21st. The National Police Agency announced that, according to the law revision, parking and stopping will be prohibited in 16,896 Child Protection Zones nationwide. Child Protection Zones are designated on roads within a 300-meter radius of the main gates of kindergartens and elementary schools across the country. However, in areas permitted by safety signs designated by the city or provincial police chiefs, parking and stopping for the purpose of child boarding and alighting is allowed during specified times.
