This event was organized by the Yongin branch of the Gyeonggi Province Automotive Service Association to ensure that drivers with disabilities could operate their vehicles safely during the Chuseok holiday. To support free replacement of consumable parts and similar services, 5 million won each from both the provincial and city governments, amounting to a total of 10 million won, was provided.
Approximately 80 people, including members of the Yongin branch and students from the Department of Automotive Engineering at Yongin Arts and Science University, participated at the event site. From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., they checked the status of car batteries, steering and braking systems, and replaced consumables such as bulbs, wipers, and air conditioner filters at no charge. They also explained the inspection results and maintenance methods to vehicle owners.
Mayor Lee stated, "I want to thank the members who willingly volunteered for the sake of citizens' safe travels home, even in the hot weather and on a holiday."
