Here is a reminder to all my readers in South Korea, seatbelts are now mandatory to wear:
Starting tomorrow, all car passengers will have to buckle up.
The National Police Agency said Thursday that a new enforcement ordinance requiring all car passengers to wear seatbelts on Korea’s roads will come into force on Friday.
A driver will be fined 30,000 won ($27) if any passenger violates the rule. The fine will be 60,000 won if the passenger is 13 or younger.
Police said they are planning to start cracking down on seatbelt violations in December, after a two-month awareness campaign. [Korea Times]
