Yeongam County and Yeongam Police Jointly Crack Down on Unregistered Motorcycles

Protecting Residents from Threats of Unregistered Two-Wheel Vehicles

[Yeongam=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-kyung] On the 11th, Yeongan-gun, Jeollanam-do, and Yeongam Police Station conducted a joint crackdown on unregistered motorcycles and unlicensed driving at Daebul Industrial Complex in Samho-eup.

During this crackdown, from 5 PM to 7 PM, which is the evening rush hour, officials and police were stationed at various locations at the crackdown site, catching three people on the spot, imposing fines of 500,000 KRW, and guiding the registration of unregistered motorcycles.

Yeongam-gun has recently faced criticism as cases of operating motorcycles without registration have become frequent, and the number of foreign workers who cannot obtain a motorbike license driving motorcycles has increased, threatening residents' safety.

The county plans to produce and distribute multilingual leaflets to ensure that foreigners using unregistered motorcycles have no difficulties in registering their motorcycles.

Additionally, they intend to promote motorcycle registration usage at companies in the Daebul Industrial Complex and actively encourage bicycle use.

Meanwhile, owners of unregistered motorcycles must subscribe to mandatory insurance, visit the nearest eup/myeon office to report motorcycle usage, and then attach license plates.
