[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Suwon City, Gyeonggi Province, will conduct a safety inspection of school buses for children in the second half of the year by the end of this month.

On the 21st, Suwon City announced that it will promote the "2022 Second Half School Bus Safety Inspection for Children" by the 30th of this month in cooperation with Suwon Southern, Central, and Western Police Stations and the Korea Transportation Safety Authority Gyeonggi Southern Headquarters.

This inspection is a joint effort to check whether school buses for children in the Suwon area comply with safety standards to prevent accidents and create a traffic environment where children can feel safe.

The inspection targets school buses operated by daycare centers in the jurisdiction that have not submitted quarterly school bus safety operation records this year or have not completed re-education within two years after completing the "Children's School Bus Safety Education."

The main inspection items include ▲whether school buses are operated without registration (vehicles with nine or more seats used by children under 13 years old for education, etc., must be registered) ▲attachment of child protection signs and subscription to traffic accident insurance ▲submission of school bus safety operation records ▲completion of safety education by school bus drivers, etc. ▲compliance with school bus requirements (proper installation and normal operation of vehicle safety devices), among others.

The city plans to immediately correct minor issues on-site based on the inspection results and impose administrative measures after reviewing relevant laws if violations are found.

A city official emphasized, "We will systematically promote the joint inspection of school buses for children until the end of November to create a commuting environment where children can feel safe."
