Awesome. I was actually worried because my driver's license had my old address on it and I didn't get around to changing it yet. Thought a speed camera may have caught me once or twice but looks like nothing is there.

It's not your drivers license that needs to updated to receive your tickets, it's your vehicle registration. Just take it to your new Gu office and have your address updated. I dont think it cost me anything when I did it....maybe 2000W, but next to nothing, anyway. Also, I think youre supposed to do that within 7 days of moving to a new address....

What would I use as an ID# if I have a USFK drivers license. I'm pretty sure I have a few tickets racked up already within the last month.

I dont know. If you dont have an Alien Registration number (ARC#) like most foreigners and if you've tried it with your name and USFK# and it didnt work, then you'll probably will have to call someone..not sure who.

You would check with your base's Provost Marshal Office. Any violation the Korean police record for your vehicle or for you will be referred to that office.

Like 75% of Korea sites, I had to install countless random security programs and then it still didn't work. I tried every possible name combination. Typical.

Same here, SeoulMan; same here. Four years ago, one of my fellow Busan EPIK teachers summed up the situation succinctly:

Quote:
If efficiency ever hits this country, there will be massive unemployment.


That obviously extends to designers/operators of government web sites.

Thanks...awesome info. I only have one ticket so far thankfully. Stay the hell out of the bus lane on Interstate 1. It will cost you 90,000 won.

The only working recipe:
IE6 + ActiveX (those crap you're asked to install, e.g. nProtect) + a little bit of luck
Despite of all that, it's still not crash-proof. Awesome, init?

I read this as "Cat Owners". Had that been the case, I would have accepted anything nProtect wanted just to see the website.

Installed that stupid, useless crap and STILL wouldn't work... I wonder when "the most wired country in the world" will ever learn how to program sites that actually work and are not, at best, marginally functional. Jesus Christ.

Dysupes: Have you ever noticed the "well lit" cars on the road here at night? Even on a clear, starlit & moonlit night, every light on the vehicle--headlights, taillights, foglights, and sometimes even the dome lights--is on. Well, that's what web page programming is like for your average programmer in Korea. He puts everything he's ever learned how to do on one page. It's cluttered, to say the least.

I think it's the fault of the bosses. They want everything on the page and, this being Korea, nobody has the guts to tell the boss he's stupid.
