The city plans to strengthen enforcement, focusing on areas with high two-wheeled vehicle traffic, such as residential neighborhoods, in order to create a safer traffic environment. Inspectors from the Korea Transportation Safety Authority will participate in this operation, with a particular focus on checking whether the structure and equipment of two-wheeled vehicles comply with the "Motor Vehicle Safety Standards."


The main targets of the crackdown include violations of the "Automobile Management Act" such as: ▲ missing, damaged, obscured, or contaminated license plates ▲ non-functioning license plate lights ▲ noise from illegal modifications ▲ unregistered operation ▲ uncertified lighting devices ▲ and other violations of safety standards.


If a violation is detected, the city will order restoration to the original condition or a temporary inspection. In particular, for vehicles found to have illegal lighting devices or illegal modifications with clear intent, administrative action will be taken alongside criminal prosecution.



Baek Kyunghyun, Mayor of Guri, stated, "Through continuous enforcement, we aim to eradicate vehicles that violate traffic laws and prevent safety accidents that may occur due to driver negligence, such as brake light failures. We will do our utmost to create a traffic environment where citizens can live with peace of mind."
