사고 현장에서 사고 차량을 옮기거나 주차위반 차량을 견인사업소로 이동시키기 위해 주로 이용되고 있는 리프트식 견인차는 피견인차의 구동방식에 따라 차량의 전부 또는 후부을 들어 올려 구동 바퀴로 이동할 수 있도록 하는 특수차량이다. 본 논문에서는 견인중인 견인차와 이송중인 전륜 피견인차 및 일반 주행 중인 차량 사이에서 일어날 수 있는 3중 추돌사고를 일반적인 3중 추돌사고와 비교하여 견인 중에 발생하는 추돌사고가 얼마나 위험한지를 직접 확인한다. 각 차량은 CATIA를 이용하여 모델링하고 이를 상용 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ANSYS를 통하여 피견인차의 후부를 주행 차량이 들이 받는 추돌을 시뮬레이션한다. 또한 견인차가 피견인차를 들어 올려 발생되는 피견인차의 각도에 따른 추돌의 영향을 해석한다.

Multi-car rear-end collision accidents have three categories: sequential collision from the rear which is commonly referred to as chain reaction collision, sequential collision from the front, and mixed-order collision. This paper suggests several effective methods of reconstruction analysis for multi-car rear-end collision accidents. First, by incorporating the traditional empirical method which uses vehicle damage caused by brake dive and passenger injuries, with results of theoretical analysis made within mechanics of rigid body, it is made possible for the method to be put to immediate practical use. A methodology to precisely analyze multi-car rear-end collision accidents was suggested using a simulation program simultaneously with a video event data recorder which is starting to be widely used in domestic vehicles. To go beyond the simple intuitive analysis of the video event data recorder, the simulation analysis based on the results of video analysis was executed to acquire various information, so that the causes and responsibility could be clearly stated.

This study deals with the rear-end accidents of 4-legged signalized intersections in Cheongju. The objectives are to analyze the characteristics of the accidents and to develop the models which explain the relations among the accidents, traffic volumes and geometric structures. In pursuing the above, the study uses the data 308 rear-end accidents occurred at the 106 intersections (2004). The main results analyzed are as follows. First, the rear-end accidents were analyzed to be serious. because the ratio of severe accidents is 77.6%. Second, the more accidents were occurred of in the night than the daytime and in the approaching sections of intersections. In particular, the accidents of large-size struck vehicles were analyzed to be more serious. Finally, the multiple and Poission regression models developed in this study are all analyzed to be statistically significant.

As the number of reported injuries has tended to increase over time, large hospitalization expenditure from excessive medical treatments and hospitalization, and insurance frauds associated with moral hazard in minor collisions have caused a global societal problem. Many occupants of rear-ended vehicles involved in rear-end collisions complain of whiplash injury, which is also known as neck injury, without any anatomical and radiological evidence. With only clinical symptoms, stating that a whiplash injury is a type of injury defined by the Abbreviated Injury Scale would be difficult. Therefore, this study focuses on minor rear-end collisions, where the rear-ender vehicle collides with the rear-ended vehicle at rest. The mathematics dynamic model is employed to simulate a total of 100 rear-end collision scenarios based on various weights and collision speeds and identify how the weights and speeds of both vehicles influence the risk of whiplash injury in occupants involved in minor rear-end collisions. The possibility of an injury is very high when the same-weight vehicles are involved in accidents at collision speeds of 15 km/h or higher. The possibilities are 36% and 84% with collision speeds of 15 km/h and 20 km/h, respectively, if weights are disregarded.

It is largely agreed that elderly drivers (over 64 years) are more likely to cause fatal crashes than other age groups. According to national road crash statistics 2021, the number of road fatalities per 10,000 drivers over 64 years old was 1.77, while that of drivers in their 30s was 0.55. This indicates a 2.67 times higher probability of causing crashes among the former than the latter. The current study estimates how rear-end crashes may be reduced by installing Automatic Emergency Braking Systems (AEBS), particularly for elderly drivers. We analyzed data from Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance. The results show that the Odds Ratio of rear-end crash occurrence between vehicles with AEBS and without AEBS is 0.75, implying there were lesser rear-end crashes in the vehicles installed with AEBS. The Odds Ratio of male drivers was determined to be 0.78, which was lesser than the 0.81 Odds Ratio obtained for female drivers. Elderly drivers who had installed AEBS in their vehicles showed an Odds Ratio of 0.76, implying crash reduction. In particular, the Odds Ratio of male elderly drivers was found to be the lowest at 0.49. We believe incentivizing by giving discounted insurance premiums to the elderly who drive vehicles installed with AEBS will help reduce rear-end crashes.

The forward collision of vehicles in high speed can cause a chain collisions and high fatality rate. Most of the forward collisions are caused by insufficient braking distance due to detection time of driver and safe distance. Also, accumulated detection time of driver is cause of chain collisions after the forward collision. The FVCWS prevents the forward collision by maintaining the safety distance inter-vehicle and reducing detection time of driver. However the FVCWS can cause chain collisions because the system that interacts only forward vehicle has accumulated detection time of driver. In this paper, we analyze forward and chain collisions of normal vehicles and FVCWS vehicles on static traveling scenario. And then, we analyze and compare V2V based FVCWS with them after explaining the system. The V2V FVCWS reduces detection time of driver alike FVCWS as well as remove accumulated detection time of driver by broadcasting emergence message to backward vehicles at the same time. Therefore, the system decrease possibility of forward and chain collisions. All backward normal vehicles and 3~4 backward FVCWS vehicles have possibility of forward and chain collisions in result of analysis. However V2V FVCWS vehicles almost do not chain collisions in the result.

본 연구는 교통사고 야기 자들의 운전정밀적성검사기록과 해당 교통사고기록을 비교하여 특정 운전적성상의 결손이 교통사고와 특정유형의 교통사고에 미치는 영향을 계량적으로 분석하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 본 연구를 위하여 우리나라에서 가장 빈발하는 인적요인에 의한 교통사고 유형 중에서 교통상충이 빈발하는 지점에서 발생하는 차-대-차 사고를 조사분석대상으로 삼았다. 이와 같이 분석대상사고를 선정한 이유는 교통상충이 교통사고로 발전하는 과정에서 사고 제1당사자의 운전적성의 역할을 파악하고자하는 목적에서이다. 따라서 본 연구의 대상이 되는 교통사고 유형을 1. 교차로 진입부에서의 추돌사고, 2. 교차로내 충추돌사고, 3. 단일로상의 추돌사고로 선정하였다. 판별력이 의문시되는 4개 항목을 제외한 조사분석결과에서 하나의 항목을 제외하고 사고 야기자와 일반인의 운전적성상에 통계적으로 분명한 차이가 있으며 각 항목의 결손자 집단에서의 사고자 비율이 일반운전자 집단에 비해 교통사고를 경험한 확률이 2배 내지 4배 가량 높았다. 또한 특정 유형 사고 야기자와 사고 야기자 전체, 일반운전자 집단간 비교에서도 항목별 결손율이 분명한 다른 형태를 갖고 있다는 사실을 확인했으며, 특정유형의 결손(조합)자 집합에서 특정 교통사고 유형을 야기시켰을 확률이 일반인 집단에 비해 많게는 13배 적게는 3, 4배 정도 높다고 추정되었다.

The wrecker truck of lift type is used to move damaged car in accident spot or to move illegal vehicle in towaway zone toward pound.. This special vehicle drives by lifting front or rear side of car with the driving type of towed car. Each car is modelled with CATIA and is simulated with FEM analysis program ANSYS. This study analyzes how dangerous is the triple collision among the wrecker-towed car-driving car as comparing with the usual collision accident with cars. It is studied how responsible is the towed car in case of crashing its back side by driving car. The influence on the driving angle of towed car by lifting wrecker is also considered.

The aim of this study is to analyze effects of factors on the number of vehicles involved in traffic accidents on freeway sections. In previous studies about traffic accident severity, the analysis of accidents involving multiple vehicles was insufficient. However, multiple-vehicle accidents are likely to cause casualties and are the main reasons increasing accident duration and social costs. In this study, the number of vehicles involved in an accident was interpreted as the result of the accident, not as the cause of the accident, and the impacts of each accident factor were analyzed using a multinomial logit model. The results indicate that multiple-vehicle accidents are mainly related to following factors: nighttime, driver's faults, obstacles on the road, a downhill slope, heavy vehicles, and freeway mainline sections including tunnels and bridges.
