"So Convenient for Reverse Parking"... Vertical Parking Lines Expanding Across Cities

Many drivers struggle with aligning their cars within the parking lines every time they park. Did you know that a district office in Seoul has introduced a unique type of parking line?

Yes, Dongjak-gu in Seoul has pilot-installed "vertical parking lines" at four public parking lots within its jurisdiction to improve parking convenience and prevent safety accidents.

The vertical parking line extends the vertical marking of the traditional floor parking line all the way up the rear wall of the parking space.

It allows drivers to easily check their parking position when backing into a space, enabling more accurate parking and reducing contact accidents with surrounding facilities.

This vertical parking line was first introduced nationwide by Gongju, South Chungcheong Province, late last year, receiving a positive response.

Dongjak-gu plans to evaluate parking convenience and the effectiveness of preventing contact accidents through a user satisfaction survey after the pilot operation.
