Busan City cracks down on restrictions on vehicle operation with level 5 emissions

Busan City announced on the 8th that ahead of the implementation of the 8th fine dust seasonal management system, it will conduct a mock crackdown on driving restrictions on vehicles with class 5 emissions throughout the city.

The mock crackdown is conducted to inform people in advance of the driving restrictions that will be implemented from December to March of next year during the seasonal management system period and to encourage low-emission measures.

The mock crackdown will be conducted twice, the first from the 12th to the 23rd of this month, and the second from the 9th to the 20th of next month.

The crackdown time is from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekdays, excluding weekends and public holidays.

During the mock crackdown period, no fines will be imposed on caught vehicles, and they will be guided to comply with driving restrictions during the seasonal management system and participate in low-emission measures.

As of the end of September this year, the number of low-emission level 5 vehicles in the Busan area that did not take action was 22,000, a 68% decrease from 69,000 in September 2021 before the operation restrictions were implemented.
