- Pilot operation from the 8th to the 17th - Suncheon City (Mayor Noh Gwan-gyu) announced that starting this year, fire trucks and ambulances will be given priority, and emergency vehicles will receive a green light and pass through the intersection first. The city has established an emergency vehicle priority signal system so that emergency vehicles can move to their destination without stopping and secure golden time, and will be piloted from the 8th to the 17th. Built as part of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport's government subsidy project for intelligent transportation systems, this system allows emergency vehicles to pass through intersections without waiting at traffic lights when a destination is set on a terminal installed in an emergency vehicle. The signal is interlocked with a green signal, and after passing through the intersection, it is returned to a normal signal. In the meantime, emergency vehicles have been delayed due to traffic congestion and have been exposed to the risk of traffic accidents. The city expects that the introduction of the priority signal system will greatly contribute to securing the golden time to protect the lives and safety of citizens and preventing accidents. An official from Suncheon City said, "If the priority signal system is activated, the waiting time at the signal temporarily increases, but I hope you will actively cooperate with the mindset of keeping me and my family and neighbors safe." If you start predictably, there is a risk of accident, so please refrain from predicting departure.” ☞ Source: Suncheon City
