Abstract

Metropolitan buses are managed as either a direct seat type or a metropolitan express type according to the 「Passenger Transport Service Act」. However, a management system that reflects the characteristics of metropolitan buses is not currently established. Therefore, in this study, the driving characteristics of metropolitan buses, dangerous driving behavior characteristics of metropolitan bus drivers, metropolitan bus accident characteristics, and the safety management system of domestic and foreign buses and other means were investigated. Through this, a plan for strengthening the safety management of metropolitan buses suitable for Korea was presented by dividing it into short-term and mid to long term. The short-term plan is a plan that can be carried out through consultation between metropolitan bus agencies and transportation companies, and the mid to long term plan is a plan that can be implemented only when related laws are revised. Through this study, it is expected to serve as an opportunity for in-depth discussions by the government, business operators, and related experts to strengthen the safety management of metropolitan buses.

광역버스는 「여객자동차 운수사업법」에 따라 시내버스 운송사업 중 직행좌석형과 광역급 행형 중 하나로 관리되나, 광역버스 특성이 반영된 관리체계는 현재 구축되어 있지 않다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 광역버스의 운행특성, 광역버스 운전자의 위험운전 행동특성, 광역버스 사고특성 및 국내외 버스와 타 수단의 안전관리체계 등을 조사하여 우리나라에 맞는 광역버스 안전관리 강화방안을 단기와 중·장기로 구분하여 제시하였다. 단기는 광역버스 관계기관과 운수업체가 협의만으로도 진행 가능한 방안이라면, 중·장기는 관련 법 개정이 완료된 후에야 실행 가능한 방안들이다. 본 연구를 통해 광역버스 안전관리 강화 등을 위한 관계기관, 사업자 및 관련 전문가들의 심도 있는 논의의 계기가 되길 기대한다.
