A man in his 50s who ran over an arrested truck driver after receiving a stop sign was sentenced to prison for “assault on a driver.”

The court ruled that the temporary parking lot and stops were also “operational”, contradicting the recent controversial case of the assault on a taxi driver by Deputy Justice Minister Lee Yong-gu.

Last January, a crossroads in Seongdong-gu, Seoul.

When the truck did not fit in the lane, A, a man in his 50s, swears saying, ‘I don’t know a truck in my life.’

After getting caught in the red light side by side, I walked over to the driver’s seat of the truck, opened the door, grabbed the legs, and hit myself in the face.

A man in his 60s, who was run over, stopped his vehicle and reported to 112, and the next day, his teeth trembled a lot and he was diagnosed as needing treatment for 6 months.

The court recently jailed Mr. A for one year and six months in prison for charging a ‘battery charge on a driver’ under the Special Law, not just assault.

Mr. A insisted that the victim put the transmission in ‘park, P’ and it was not ‘running’ because he tried to get out of the truck after being struck.

The judges said they only stopped briefly at the signal and had to keep driving because there were many vehicles ahead and behind.

Additionally, the scope of ‘in operation’ under the Special Special Law revised in 2015 was interpreted to include situations that could threaten the safety of the surrounding area by assaulting the driver, including temporary parking and stops.

This ruling is drawing attention as a ‘similar case’ and a different conclusion to the assault on a taxi driver by Vice Minister Lee Yong-gu of the Ministry of Justice.

Vice Minister Lee assaulted a taxi driver in November last year, but police said the car was detained and ended the internal investigation by treating it as a simple assault rather than the Special Law.

In addition, it was revealed that the situation was not reported to the higher level even after watching the video of the taxi’s black box, which generated controversy over the police ‘surveillance investigation’.
