A Study on Improvement Scheme for Korea's Motor Vehicle Safety Standards System

The Korea's safety standards for vehicle have been strengthened to reduce casualties from traffic accidents since 1962. The standards have a rather complicated structure. The safety standards are composed of the main text and asterisks, and the safety standard implementation rules are composed of the main text, asterisks and appendices, and items of the same name are stipulated in other chapters within the safety standards. This study is to suggest improvement measures such as simplifying the structure of these safety standards and integrating safety standard items with the same name. Through this, users' understanding of the standards will be improved, and it is expected that the system will be more efficient such as securing safety quickly through harmonization with international standards following the development of rapidly changing new technologies such as automated vehicles.
