On that day, the Hakdong Police Substation of Michuhol Police Station in Incheon responded to a request for transportation support for an examinee, transporting the student by patrol car to the Inhwa Girls' High School test site in Michuhol District. After getting off the patrol car, the examinee expressed gratitude to the police officers and hurried to the exam hall.

In Jeonnam Province, at around 7:55 a.m., a student mistakenly thought the test site was Muan Namaak High School and requested help. The police used a patrol car to urgently transport the student to the original test site, Mokpo Mariahoe High School.

The National Police Agency announced that a total of 214 convenience services were provided related to the CSAT held that day. By type, police vehicle escorts accounted for the largest number with 178 cases, followed by delivery of items such as admission tickets with 13 cases, and 23 cases of others.

To manage traffic near the CSAT test sites, the police deployed 11,265 personnel, 2,323 patrol cars, and 358 motorcycles. During the third period listening test, the police planned to divert noise-causing vehicles around the test sites and manage traffic until the exam ended. Additionally, after the exam, traffic police will be stationed in areas expected to have large crowds to prevent accidents.
