Railway is huge traffic system which is operated organically combining all the elements; vehicle, track, electric power, signal/communication, operation, etc. Safety level has been improved steadily by learning lessons from past accident. But with rapid progress in high-speed, massive, high-frequency transit fresh idea of accident prevention is now in order. In quest of effective and efficient countermeasure, we aim to establish an adequate safety evaluation/management method. Our proposals are basic concept relating to safety analysis of fatal accidents, AHP of Saaty, Fuzzy AHP.

The number of deaths from child traffic accidents in Korea is currently higher than the average figure of OECD members, and attention needs to be paid to reduce the school zone accident rate. According to the TAAS statistics of the Traffic Accident Analysis System, the number of deaths from traffic accidents in children (under 12 years of age) in Korea has been steadily decreasing recently, but the number of accidents and injuries has been continuously increasing and decreasing. With the number of accidents and injuries of children in Korea continuing to increase and decrease, the number of traffic accidents, deaths, and injuries of children in the school zone (under 12 years of age) has also been on the rise since 2019. Therefore, we were different from the preceding study (Study on Improvement through School Zone Accident Risk Survey, Study on Improvement of Children's Traffic Safety Facilities through Simulation Program). In order to prevent traffic accidents among school zones, which have the highest accident rate among children, a survey was conducted on traffic safety facilities and safety awareness of drivers. After that, we will analyze the problems and present measures for improving traffic safety in the school zone and improving drivers' safety awareness.

In this paper, the maximum traffic quantity and actual traffic quantify of the data which are needed to grasp the statement of a system will be measured more accurately. A concrete quality measurement will be conducted by analysing a change of traffic quantity according to a protocol change and traffic under an overload condition when there is an accident. As a result can make an opportunity to maximize safety of power SCADA. Furthermore, future traffic quantity can be prospected by knowing current traffic quantity and grasping the rate of increase by the analysis and the information can be used as data to secure the band width in advance. It can make stable operation of power SCADA by arranging the limited network resources efficiently by information analysis of a network and expects more confidence.

eCall system assists traffic accident victims by connecting emergency rescue institutions with accurate accident information, helping them to identify the on-site situation in the event of a traffic accident. The purpose of this paper is to develop a Korean eCall system that reflects the requirements of domestic emergency rescue institutions and to analyze the expected effects through an integrated demonstration. The results of an integrated demonstration indicated that the communication success rate between the eCall IVS and the call center was 99.25%, and the average location information error was 1.2 m. In particular, it has been confirmed that the average location information error is less than 21.6 meters, as assessed by the Korea Communications Commission when evaluating the accuracy of domestic emergency rescue location information. When the eCall system was introduced, it was confirmed that the time from traffic accidents to hospital arrival could be shortened by 3 m 38 s for highways and 1 m 22 s for general roads. By it to traffic deaths from 2005 to 2022, it was analyzed that the number of fatalities decreased by 82,662, resulting in a reduction of approximately social costs.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in user-centered smart city services. In this study, user behavior analysis was performed as a preliminary study for user - centered smart city service planning. In particular, we will use GIS based location analysis data and video ethonography methodology to derive smart city service direction and needs. In this study, the area of Daejeon Design District selected as the Smart City Test bed was selected as the survey area and the location analysis data of the traffic accident analysis system of the road traffic corporation and the fixed camera We observed user's behavior type and change with image data extracted through the technique. Location analysis data is classified according to the type of accident, and image data is classified into 11 subdivided types of user activities. The problems and specificities observed were analyzed. The user behavior characteristics investigated through this study are meaningful to provide a basis for suggesting user - centered smart city services in the future.

In this study, the number of truck traffic accidents was predicted by using Poisson and negative binomial regression analysis to understand what factors affect accidents using expressway data. Significant variables in the truck traffic accident prediction model were continuous driving time, link length, truck traffic volume. number of bridges and number of drowsy shelters. The calculated LOSS rating was expressed on the national expressway network to diagnose the risk of truck accidents. This is expected to be used as basic data for policy establishment to reduce truck accidents on expressways.

This study dealt with Traffic Problem to Cheonan city. This study ran parallel literature investigation and actual proof investigation. Questionnaires 394 enforce frequency analysis in SPSS 15.0 versions. Traffic Problem to Cheonan city include the discomfort of public transportation, parking problem, pollution of automobile, traffic accident. By improvement of traffic problem, first, improvement plan of transportation system by administration of logical traffic demand should be readied. Second, because Cheonan city is many an university student who is use target of public transportation, public transportation utilization ratio must raise through discount application. Third, solution of traffic jam need to the improvement and strengthening of system of public transit. Fourth, Cheonan city must push ahead with supplies of traffic facility, modify of transportation network, and improvement of operating system. In particular, Cheonan city need to modify old road and improvement of accessibility though road network briefly. Fifth, Cheonan city need fixing of van traffic culture such as solution of parking problem and traffic order consciousness fostering of users.

Trucking is the most frequently used mode for freight movement due to relatively lower shipping costs and its operational flexibility. However, truck traffic can contribute to serious safety problems where they occupy high percentage of the total traffic. Heavy truck crashes arc more likely to result in serious injuries and fatalities than are crashes involving light vehicles. Therefore, safety issues for truck traffic are very significant both for public agencies and for general travelers. The objective of our study is to find truck-involved accident patterns according to traffic conditions and main factors as well as to find the most critical factor through conventional statistical techniques. A vailable data were obtained from TASAS (Traffic Accident Surveillance and Analysis System). Once critical factors are identified, effective and efficient truck management strategies can be discussed.

Since a few years ago, great disasters have often took place in domestic and abroad, such as Sampoong Department store collapse, Sea-land disaster accident, Incheon Hof fire accidents. Whenever a lot of accidents occurred such as fire, gas explosion, traffic accident, mountain accident, various disease, people required 119 first aid service. As the result, even for the last year, average 2,608 person per day were temporary treated and carried to near hospital by 119 system. But first-aid team or first grade EMT(emergency medical technician) that should provide high quality service and save important lives, might have negatively treated or made their duty only for simple transfer, when they were imminent of emergency case in every kinds of accident spot. Because they worried about medical dispute for "task restriction for EMT" decided by medical laws or rules of first aid. So it was proposed that "task restriction for EMT" should be mitigated or released in the possible range on this occasion.
