Abstract

Determining the cause of a traffic signal violation is difficult if the drivers' claims are contradictory. In this study, the process of identifying signal violations using a simulation was presented based on cases. First, statements from the driver or witness whose cause of the signal violation is unclear were excluded. Second, the final position, final location, damaged area, steering status, braking status, and road surface traces of the vehicle were collected. The impact point was investigated from the stop line. Third, simulation data were modified and entered until the collision situation of the accident vehicle and the final stop position were met. Fourth, if the simulation results were consistent with the crash situation, the facts were verified by cross-validation to conform to the driver's statement. The results of the simulation showed that the Lexus entered the left turn signal in the intersection at approximately 55 km/h. In comparison, the Sonata driver saw the vehicle straight ahead at the intersection, entered the 72 km/h intersection, and collided with the Lexus. Therefore, the Sonata was identified as a signal violation, and the claims of the Sonata driver, witnesses, and police were contradictory.

교통 신호 위반 사고는 운전자의 주장이 서로 상반되면 원인 규명이 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 사례를 중심으로 교통 사고 분석을 위해 사용하는 차량 충돌 해석 시뮬레이션 프로그램인 PC-CRASH을 이용하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였고, 이를 통하여 교차로에서 신호 위반 차량을 규명하는 과정을 제시하였다. 첫째, 신호 위반의 원인 규명이 분명하지 않은 운전자나 목격자의 진술을 배제한다. 둘째, 사고 차량의 최종 자세, 최종위치, 파손 부위, 조향 여부, 제동 여부, 노면 흔적을 수집하고, 정지선으로부터 충돌지점까지 조사한다. 셋째, 사고 차량의 충돌 상황과 최종 정지 자세에 부합될 때까지 시뮬레이션 자료를 수정 입력한다. 넷째, 시뮬레이션 결과가 충돌 상황과 부합되면 운전자의 진술과 부합되는지 교차 검증하여 사실 규명을 입증한다. 본 연구의 시뮬레이션의 결과는 교차로 내 좌회전 신호에 렉서스는 약 55 km/h로 진입하였고 소나타는 교차로의 차량 직진 신호를 보고 72km/h로 교차로에 진입하여 렉서스와 충돌하였다. 그러므로 소나타의 신호위반으로 규명되고 소나타 운전자, 목격자, 경찰의 주장은 모순이다.
