Pedestrians looking down at their smartphones are given something else to look at this week, as officials in Seoul, the capital
of South Korea and one of the world’s most wired cities, are launching a safety campaign to keep
them from walking into busy traffic.
In an effort to reduce the number of smartphone-related accidents involving pedestrians and vehicles, officials in Seoul
have begun putting up 300 warning signs this week in five places across the city with the highest
number of young pedestrians. The signs show a person looking at his smartphone as he is about
to be hit by a car.
In South Korea, smartphone-related accidents have more than doubled in five years, according to the Transportation Safety
Authority. The problem is especially serious in a country where smartphone users currently make
up around 80 percent of the population.
Seoul plans to check the effectiveness of the signs until the end of the year before deciding whether to expand the project.
