Which of the following is subject to 'a criminal fine of up to 300,000 won or detention' under the Road Traffic Act?
A driver's duties after an accident are divided into giving aid, providing personal details, and reporting to the police, and the severity of punishment differs greatly depending on which duty was breached (Articles 148 and 154 of the Road Traffic Act). Also keep these apart from the penalty provisions for driving without a license and for joint dangerous driving.
Answer: ③
Explanation
A person who does not make the accident report required by Article 54(2) is punished by a criminal fine of up to 300,000 won or detention under Article 154, item 4. Leaving without aiding victims falls under Article 148 (up to 5 years' imprisonment etc.), driving a motor vehicle without a license under Article 152 (up to 1 year etc.), and joint dangerous driving under Article 150 (up to 2 years etc.), all heavier.
