As the summer vacation season approaches, the police have launched a special crackdown on drunk driving.

As soon as the crackdown began, they were caught everywhere, and some drivers ran away to avoid the measurement or were rather angry.



Reporter Shin Jeong-eun reports the first day of the crackdown.

The number of drunk driving-related deaths this year was 14, an increase of 16.7% from the same period last year.



In particular, the number of drunk driving accidents during the holiday season increased by 4.2% compared to other times, so caution is needed.
