[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Jun-kyung] Yeongam County conducted intensive crackdowns on business vehicles illegally parked overnight along residential streets.

According to Yeongam County on the 30th, from the 22nd for six days, a special nighttime crackdown was carried out on business vehicles (buses, trucks) and construction machinery illegally parked overnight along roads in densely populated residential areas such as apartments and housing complexes.

This crackdown began with the attachment of prior warning notices to construction machinery and trucks illegally parked along roads near Yongang Humansia, Queensville, Jungheung S-Class, and Huimangga in Samho-eup to alleviate traffic inconvenience and prevent safety accidents in densely populated residential areas.

Currently, a total of 7 trucks and 7 construction machines have been caught. The trucks caught will face suspension of operation or fines, and construction machinery will be fined between 50,000 and 300,000 KRW depending on the number of violations.

Moon Dong-il, Director of the Construction and Transportation Division, said, “This crackdown focused on areas where Samho-eup residents raised complaints about inconvenience caused by illegal overnight parking,” adding, “We will continue educational activities and crackdowns on illegal overnight parking until a safe traffic environment is established.”
