Case:
32 units in Baoan District of Shenzhen were warned for occupying fire exits.
On April 201May 15, it was learned from the Fire Supervision and Management Brigade of Shenzhen Baoan Public Security Bureau that in order to severely crack down on the random occupation of fire truck passages and ensure that fire trucks can reach the fire site quickly and smoothly to carry out fire fighting and rescue, Baoan police recently launched a fire truck passage rectification operation.
According to the fire police, the rectification action of blocking the fire truck passage is mainly aimed at the behavior of social units blocking the fire passage. In the rectification action, Baoan police will give a verbal warning and impose a fine ranging from 5,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan once they find fire-fighting violations that block or occupy roads.
According to statistics, from April 1 day to April 14, 32 units including Shenzhen Friendship Bookstore Co., Ltd. Songgang Store, Shenzhen Mingxin Printing Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Yongchang Electromechanical Co., Ltd. were warned for blocking and occupying fire truck passages.
At the same time, the fire department appealed to the public not to occupy the fire lane to park motor vehicles and keep the fire exits open. If citizens find illegal acts of occupying or blocking fire exits, they can also call 96 1 19 to report.
