도로교통공단 교통사고 분석시스템(TAAS)에 따르면 2016년 기준 전체사고의 약 11%가 고령운전자 사고이며, 고령운전자 사고로 인한 사망자수는 759명에 달한다. 본 연구에서는 고령운전자의 신체적 특징을 감안하여 전기(65세~74세), 중기(75세~84세), 후기(85세 이후)로 나누고 로지스틱 회귀분석을 이용하여 고령운전자의 연령대별 사고특성과 사망사고에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하고 그 특성을 고려한 안전대책을 제시하고자 하였다. 분석결과 차량단독사고일 때 고령자 전 연령대에서 사고위험도가 높게 나타났으며, 도로이탈로 인한 사고인 경우 다른 사고요인에 비해 위험도가 높게 나타났다. 사고원인별로 살펴보면 안전운전의무 불이행, 중앙선침범으로 인한 사고인 경우가 높았으며, 기상상태별로 볼 때 전기고령자에서 중기, 후기 고령자로 갈수록 흐릴 때의 사고위험도가 높아지는 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this research is to propose an effective traffic safety countermeasure to reduce both violations of road traffic acts and accident rates related to the driver's characteristics by measuring them using Q analysis method, a microscopic statistics analysis method. As a result, violators of the road traffic act could be divided into five driving characteristics and causers of traffic accident could be classified into six driving characteristics. By understanding these characteristics, We could establish a proper traffic safety countermeasure for each driving characteristic. The accomplishments of this research are as follows: The first, We could classify the decisive driving characteristics, which cause road traffic acts and traffic accidents, into internal and external causes. The relationship between each driver's characteristic and the occurrence of the road traffic act and traffic accident could be recognized more clearly. We could find the dangerous driver samples who have Accidents proneness. The second, As a result of analyzing the characteristics of these factors, We could sort out and suggest countermeasure for reducing violation of road traffic acts and traffic accidents as a priority countermeasure and complementary countermeasure. Finally, transportation companies most closely related to automobile accidents can judge new personnels on the basis of their driving characteristics before hiring, and also apply this principle to the traffic safety education vigorously.

우리나라에서는 매년 2천여 건 이상의 해양사고가 발생하고 있으며, 정부는 해양사고의 발생 현황 및 원인분석을 통해 사고 저감을 위한 정책을 수립하고 있다. 중앙해양안전심판원에서는 '해양사고심판법'에 따라 해양사고의 원인을 조사하여 이를 재결서의 형태로 공개하고 있다. 이번 연구에서는 재결서의 원인판단 주제어를 기반으로 텍스트 마이닝을 수행하여 사고 종류별 해양사고 위험요인을 식별하였다. 도출된 키워드는 해양사고의 발생 원인과 밀접한 관계가 있는 키워드로 볼 수 있으므로, 해양사고의 원인분석 및 사고 예방대책 수립에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 전망된다.

Traffic regulations are expanding to prevent traffic accidents for people's safety, but traffic accidents are not decreasing. In this study, the probability of traffic accidents occurring at a specific time and place is estimated by analyzing various factors such as weather forecast data from the Meteorological Agency, day of the week, time of day, location data, and location information. This study combines objective data on the occurrence of numerous previous traffic accidents with various additional elements not considered in previous studies to derive a more improved traffic accident probability prediction model. The results of this study can be effectively used for various transportation-related services for the safety of people.

This study deals with the traffic accidents at the unsignalized intersections in Cheongju. The purpose is to analyze the characters and the relations between road environmental factors and traffic accidents. The correlation analyses among the above factors show that the accidents are strongly related to traffic volumes and sight distances in 3-legged, and the cross angles, maximum vertical grades and sight distances in 4-legged unsignalized intersections. Also the multiple linear and nonlinear regression analyses represent that the accidents in the 3-legged increase as the traffic volume and the number of double stop-lines increase, and that the accidents in the 4-legged increase as the cross angle approaches to the 90 degree and decrease as the maximum vertical grade increases. It could be expected that this results give the good implications to the future intersection improvement projects in Cheongju.

탈거리의 발달은 급기야 전 세계를 하루 생활권으로 만들었다. 비행기, 기차, 자동차, 선박 같은 교통수단의 발달은 이른바 글로벌시대를 열어 전 세계가 하나의 가족이 되어 가는데 가장 큰 역할을 했고, 특히 자동차는 사람이나 화물을 운송하는 주요 수단으로서 현대인들에게 의식주 못지않게 중요한 필수품이 되었으며, 전 세계적으로 그 수요가 급속히 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 자동차는 시간과 공간을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있게 하는 등 많은 이익을 주는 반면 교통사고 및 교통체증에 의한 인적, 물적, 경제적 손실 등과 같은 많은 사회적 문제들을 유발시키고 있는 것도 사실이다. 일반적으로 교통사고는 인간적, 차량적, 도로적 요인 등 개개별 요인과 이들의 교호작용에 의해서 발생하기 때문에 차량의 안전운행을 위한 대책은 이들 요인들의 종합적인 분석을 통하여 해결할 수 있다. 이에 따라 운전자와 보행자를 동시에 보호할 수 있고, 운행 시 운전자의 편의를 제공할 수 있는 차량안전시스템 및 이를 위한 제어기술, 정보통신기술, ITS기술, 차량동역학기술 및 차체설계기술 등이 개발 되고 있고, 과거 자동차에서는 볼 수 없었던 시트벨트, 에어백, 범퍼, 차체충격흡수장치, 도어 임팩트 빔 등이 개발되어 교통사고 시 피해를 극소화하는데 기여하고 있다.

It is well known that weather conditions are closely related with the number and severity of traffic accidents. At present, installation of safety countermeasures including systems is common approach to reduce the damage of traffic accidents at expressways. In this study, the differences of causation factors to influence traffic accidents considering road alignment characteristics and weather conditions. In order to identify the relationship between road and weather conditions, discriminant analysis has been performed with 500 traffic accident data at expressways. Weather conditions are divided into several categories such as snow, sunny, rain, fog, and cloud. Also, road conditions such as types of pavements, grades are analyzed. As the results, major impacting road conditions to traffic accidents are concrete pavement and 3% or more down grades. In these road conditions, visible distance will be reduced and actual braking distances will be increased. This study shows that the expressway sections under concrete pavement and down grades should be more cautious than other sections. It also shows that fog condition is the mose dangerous situation in terms of traffic accidents.

The urban highway, which is a motorway constructed to solve traffic issues, has the characteristic of extremely high damage to life during traffic accidents because the speed of vehicles is higher than typical roadways. In particular, because traffic accidents involving serious injuries hold a very important place among overall traffic accidents, analysis on factors affecting the occurrence of traffic accidents involving serious injuries must be considered with priority when establishing a reduction measure. Therefore, the study built a model that was capable of distinguishing the degree of the factors as part of microscopic analysis for investigating the complex effect of many elements concerning the occurrence of traffic accidents involving serious injuries in urban highways. The results are as follows. First, discriminant model showed a comparatively high level in overall accuracy rates, and, considering the correlation ratio, the models were determined to be valid, as all characteristics of the factors were clearly distinguished. Second, the problems of traffic accidents involving serious injuries on urban highways according to each factor, were clearly drawn out through the discriminant model. Third, the improvement measure for the problems drawn out from the discriminant models were clearly proposed.

Walking is an eco-friendly and sustainable means of transportation that promotes health and endurance. Despite the positive health benefits of walking, pedestrian safety is a serious problem in Korea. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate with various studies to reduce pedestrian-vehicle crashes. In this study, the cognitive characteristics affecting pedestrian-vehicle crashes were considered by applying deep learning semantic segmentation. The main results are as follows. First, it was found that the risk of pedestrian-vehicle crashes increased when the ratio of buildings among cognitive factors increased and when the ratio of vegetation and the ratio of sky decreased. Second, the humps were shown to reduce the risk of pedestrian-related collisions. Third, the risk of pedestrian-vehicle crashes was found to increase in areas with many neighborhood roads with lower hierarchy. Fourth, traffic lights, crosswalks, and traffic signs do not have a practical effect on reducing pedestrian-vehicle crashes. This study considered existing physical neighborhood environmental factors as well as factors in cognitive aspects that comprise the visual elements of the streetscape. In fact, the cognitive characteristics were shown to have an effect on the occurrence of pedestrian- related collisions. Therefore, it is expected that this study will be used as fundamental research to create a pedestrian-friendly urban environment considering cognitive characteristics in the future.
