In case where the owner of a private-use truck engages in the act of transporting cargo with compensation under subparagraph 4 of Article 48 and Article 39 of the former Trucking Transport Business Act (amended by Act No. 6731 of Aug. 26, 2002), and the owner of a private-use truck, the existence of the other party's act of receiving services, such as payment of compensation to the owner of the private-use truck and transportation of cargo, is essential. Therefore, there is a other party's act of receiving services, such as the transportation of cargo by making payment to the owner of the private-use truck. Thus, it is naturally anticipated that the crime of private-use truck owner is established as a matter of course, and unless there is any provision separately punishing the other party's act which is not indispensable for the establishment of the above crime, the other party's act of receiving services by making payment to the owner of the private-use truck and entrusting transportation cannot be punished for the other party's own-use truck's own act of transporting cargo with compensation in relation to the owner of the private-use truck.
