This campaign was organized to prevent the recent increase in electric kickboard safety accidents and to promote pedestrian protection and the establishment of a proper usage culture, particularly around schools where kickboard usage is high.


The joint event, conducted by public, private, and police sectors, included a total of 50 participants from Yangju City, Gyeonggi Province, Lee Youngju, a member of the Construction and Transportation Committee of the Gyeonggi Provincial Council, the Dongducheon Yangju Office of Education, the Yangju Green Mothers’ Association, the Yangju 2-dong Saemaeul Movement Committee, and the Yangju 2-dong Community Leaders’ Council.


Campaign participants distributed leaflets to students to promote electric kickboard safety guidelines and conducted on-site guidance regarding violations of relevant regulations.


A city official stated, "We hope this campaign will strengthen students’ awareness of electric kickboard traffic safety," adding, "We will continue to collaborate with relevant organizations to prevent illegal parking and stopping of electric kickboards and to promote a culture of safety."



Meanwhile, the city is continuously conducting campaigns, particularly in commercial areas and around schools where shared electric kickboard usage is high, to prevent pedestrian inconvenience and safety accidents caused by illegally parked kickboards, thereby contributing to the spread of proper usage culture and the enhancement of pedestrian safety awareness among citizens.
