Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do will officially launch the 'Illegal Parking Enforcement Pre-Notification Text Message Service' next month, which is currently being piloted.


According to the county on the 26th, the 'Illegal Parking Enforcement Pre-Notification Text Message Service' is a project that sends a text message to drivers who park in areas monitored by unmanned closed-circuit television (CCTV) for illegal parking, informing them that they are in an enforcement zone.

Drivers must apply for the service in advance to receive the notification texts.


Service applications can be made through the mobile app (Integrated Parking Enforcement Notification - Whistle), the Whistle call center, or the county office website, and anyone can apply regardless of their place of residence.


Upon receiving the illegal parking notification text, drivers must immediately move their vehicles. Vehicles that are not moved within a certain time will be subject to a second recording and fined.


Even if the text notification service is not provided due to system errors or mobile carrier issues, fines already imposed will not be canceled.


The service does not cover illegal parking reports by residents (Safety Report app), enforcement by other agencies, or immediate enforcement vehicles.


A county official said, "We hope that the Illegal Parking Enforcement Pre-Notification Text Message Service will raise awareness about parking violations and serve as an opportunity to establish an advanced traffic culture."
