Reports have been received from various places that the car that was driving in the snow slipped and the sign of the shopping mall fell.

An SUV fully climbed onto a facility outside the road.It stopped after hitting the guardrail because it failed to slow down while exiting the intersection of the

highway.

The slippery snow affected it.

[Police official: You have to slow down because it's a curve. And it was snow and there was speed, so I slipped....]

Fortunately, it was found that the driver was not injured.

The front part of the car is severely dented, so you can see inside clearly.

Last evening in Buan, Jeollabuk-do, a car that slipped on the snow also hit a landscape stone by the road.A driver in his 60s complained of chest pain in an accident involving

and received hospital treatment.

Earlier, in Mangyeong-eup, Gimje-si, a driver in his 50s was bruised when a truck fell on a slope next to the road in the snow.

In Gunsan, Jeollabuk-do, a commercial sign fell because it could not overcome the strong wind and snow weight.

Fortunately, no one was hurt because there was no one passing by, but it almost led to casualties.
