This crackdown involved hanging placards at habitual traffic violation spots and high-accident locations for two-wheeled vehicles, supporting traffic patrol teams composed of undercover patrol cars and sidecars, and conducting large-scale enforcement. During this period, the police issued 314 citations for two-wheeled vehicles and 294 for personal mobility devices.

At the same time, awareness was raised among drivers of two-wheeled vehicles and personal mobility devices about compliance with traffic laws. As a result, the number of traffic accident fatalities, which was 3 during the same period last year, did not occur during this enforcement period. Injuries also decreased by 10%, from 40 to 36.

Choi Jong-moon, Chief of the Jeonbuk Police Agency, said, "This intensive crackdown is significant in that it brought about a change in awareness among drivers of two-wheeled vehicles and personal mobility devices," adding, "We see this change as achieved through the participation and interest of Jeonbuk residents, and we plan to continue region-specific customized traffic safety activities for two-wheeled vehicles."
