Suwon Conducts Sweeping Cleanup of Abandoned Vehicles in First Half of 2024

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jung Jun-seong] Suwon Metropolitan City will conduct a comprehensive cleanup of abandoned vehicles from the 15th through May 7th.

The cleanup targets vehicles abandoned on roads for extended periods without maintenance and vehicles left on others' property (apartment complexes, private land) without proper authority for two months or more.

To this end, the city has organized two inspection teams for abandoned vehicles. They will inspect areas with high concentrations of abandoned vehicle complaints, frequently used areas such as free public parking lots, and areas subject to resident reports and self-detection.

Tow-away notices will be attached to abandoned vehicles, and owners will be sent legal disposal request notices. If no action is taken, the city will issue a self-correction order followed by forced disposal administrative procedures.

Meanwhile, the Automobile Management Act stipulates penalties of up to one year imprisonment or fines up to 10 million won for unauthorized vehicle abandonment.
