The inspection was carried out in cooperation with Coupang Eats Service and the Korea Motorcycle Maintenance Association. The district explained that it focused on preventing traffic accidents involving mobile workers, whose outdoor rides increase in the winter when road surfaces become slippery due to falling temperatures, snow, and ice.

The district, together with mechanics affiliated with the Korea Motorcycle Maintenance Association, inspected key parts such as braking and steering systems, tires, and batteries for 100 mobile workers who registered in advance. Consumables including engine and transmission oil, brake pads, air cleaner filters, and spark plugs were also replaced free of charge.

The district held this inspection near the ‘Gwanak-gu Mobile Worker Rest Area’ and provided information about how to use the rest area. Established in 2024, the rest area offers mobile workers a space to rest out of the heat and cold and recharge devices such as mobile phones.

Park Junhee, Mayor of Gwanak District, stated, “For mobile workers who spend long hours working outdoors on two-wheeled vehicles, safe driving and sufficient rest are of utmost importance,” and emphasized, “We will continue to support the creation of safe working environments and the protection of the right to rest so that mobile workers can work and rest with peace of mind.”
