An inspection finds a vehicle in such poor condition that it could cause danger. Which measure is correct?
For a vehicle in very poor repair, break down who does what: keeping the registration certificate, ordering a temporary halt to driving, or suspending its use (Article 41(3) of the Road Traffic Act). The number of days for the suspension and the condition for removing the defect sticker (Articles 24 and 25 of the Enforcement Decree) are also traps.
Answer: ③
Explanation
Under Article 41(3) of the Road Traffic Act, when a vehicle is in very poor condition and may cause danger, the provincial police commissioner may keep its registration certificate and order a temporary stop of driving, and if needed set a repair period of up to 10 days and suspend its use. Under Article 24 of the Enforcement Decree, a defective-vehicle sticker is placed on the windshield and may not be removed without the repair confirmation under Article 25. These are measures on the vehicle, not grounds for license revocation.
