They distributed traffic safety rule leaflets for the elderly and promotional items (wet tissues, patches, etc.), guiding citizens to avoid jaywalking, follow the three principles of defensive walking (Look, Stop, Walk), and wear bright clothes at night to help these habits become part of daily life.

Additionally, they actively promoted the revised Road Traffic Act, including the mandatory wearing of helmets for personal mobility devices and two-wheelers, as well as the correct way to navigate roundabouts.

Chief Kang Yong-jun stated, “Through this walking campaign involving policing partners and related organizations, we will strengthen the cooperative system, foster a culture of citizen participation, and continuously strive to establish a traffic safety culture.”
