Apartment Parking Lot Blockers Face Fines Starting Today

Starting today (the 28th), fines of up to 5 million won will be imposed for blocking apartment or commercial parking lot entrances with vehicles and obstructing the passage of other cars.

Under the revised law, if a vehicle is parked at the entrance of an off-street or attached parking lot, hindering the entry and exit of other vehicles, parking lot managers can demand its relocation. Failure to comply will result in a fine of 1 million won for the first offense, 2 million won for the second, and 5 million won for the third and subsequent offenses.

Fines will also be imposed on vehicles left abandoned for long periods in public free parking lots, and activities such as pitching tents or cooking—camping—in public parking lots are prohibited.
