PURPOSES : The purposes of this study are to compare the day and night characteristics and to develop the models of traffic accidents. in Rural Signalized Intersections METHODS : To develop day and night traffic accident models using the Negative Binomial Model, which was constructed for 156 signalized intersections of rural areas, through field investigations and casualty data from the National Police Agency. RESULTS : Among a total of 17 variances, the daytime traffic accident estimate models identified a total of 9 influence factors of traffic accidents. In the case of nighttime traffic accident models, 11 influence factors of traffic accidents were identified. CONCLUSIONS : By comparing the two models, it was determined that the number of main roads was an independent factor for daytime accidents. For nighttime accidents, several factors were independently involved, including the number of entrances to sub-roads, whether left turn lanes existed in major roads, the distances of pedestrian crossings to main roads and sub-roads, lighting facilities, and others. It was apparent that if the same situation arises, the probability of an accident occurring at night is higher than during the day because the speed of travel through intersections in rural areas is somewhat higher at night than during the day.

본 연구의 목적은 CRP (Continuous Risk Profile) 분석을 이용하여 야간에만 교통사고가 많이 발생하는 야간 특화 교통사고 다발구간을 선정하는 방법론을 개발하는 것이다. 또한 이연구의 다른 목적은 CRP 분석을 이용하여 야간 특화 교통사고 다발구간의 특성을 제시하는 것이다. 본 연구에서 CRP 분석은 실제 교통사고 데이터를 이용하며 대상 노선의 교통량 고려해 분석되었다. 또한 CRP 분석에 사용되는 변수는 국내 고속도로의 실정에 적합한 변수로 선정하였다. 본 연구에서는 야간 특화 교통사고를 분석하기 위한 방법으로 야간 CRP에서 주간 CRP를 빼는 방법을 사용하였다. 결과적으로 CRP 분석을 사용하여 야간 특화 교통사고 다발구간을 선정할 수 있었다. 또한 야간 특화 교통사고 다발구간은 IC나 터널이 설치된 구간으로 일반구간과 편차가 있었다. 결론적으로, 야간 특화 교통사고 다발구간 산정에 CRP 분석을 사용할 수 있었으며, IC 또는 터널시설이 설치된 구간에서 야간 특화 교통사고가 많이 발생하여 개선이 필요한 지점으로 선정되었다. 또한 IC 또는 터널시설이 설치된 구간에서 야간 특화 교통사고가 많이 발생한 것은 조명시설로 인한 야간 시인성의 문제에서 요인한 것으로 추론된다.

Korea's HEMS are mainly operated during the week, but they are pushing for 24-hour operations. This study has made an overall comparison and review of helicopter safety management that should be accompanied to this end. For research purposes, helicopter regulations and helicopter accident statistics were analyzed, with a high accident rate associated with pilot error and night flight. It was proposed that future preparations would require reinforcement of laws and regulations, reinforcement of pilots' night training, and introduction of training and preflight risk assessments. This study will provide a direction for future helicopter safety. This study will provide for future direction of helicopter safety research.

Objective: Objective of this study is to provide characteristics of injury frequency and severity by driving condition in large truck-related traffic collisions. Background: Traffic accidents involving large trucks draw a lot of attention in accident prevention and management policies since they bring about severe human and financial damages. Method: In order to identify the major risk factors of accidents by driving condition, 255 recognized traffic accidents by large truck drivers were analyzed in terms of time of the day, road type, and shape of the road. Results: The driving conditions in the results are represented by the following form of combination, "Road Type (Non-expressway or Express) - Shape of Roads (Straight, Curved, Downhill, or Intersection) - Time of Accidents (Day or Night)". In the analysis of injury frequency, Non-expressway-Straight-Day condition was the most frequent one. Meanwhile, Expressway-Curved-Day, Non-expressway-Curved-Night and Non-expressway-Intersection-Night were evaluated as high level in view of injury severity. Also, Expressway-Straight-Night is the driving condition that is the highest in risk among the conditions that have to be managed as grade "High". Non-expressway-Straight-Night, Non-expressway-Downhill-Day, and Non-expressway-Curved-Day are also categorized as grade "High". Conclusion and Application: Safety managers in the fields require basic information on accident prevention that can be easily understood. The research findings will serve as a practical guideline for establishing preventive measures for traffic accidents.

Not only in Korea, but also in other countries, most helicopter accidents occur at low altitude. Analysis on accidents data collected both in Korea and other countries has brought two conclusions. Firstly, helicopter operations during the night hours carries a high risk. Secondly, the most common cause of night hour operations is loss of control due to the flight illusion. As an operation relying on a night vision in particular has a very high accident hazard, accompanying instruments such as NVG are ought to be provided. Hence, a thorough preparation and inspection on missions for night forest fire extinguishing should be required and perfect guidelines/road maps and enough training programs for the operation should be provided before the engagement in missions.

Traffic accident analysis is important to reduce the occurrence of the accidents. In this paper, we analyze the traffic accident with Apriori algorithm to find out an association rule of traffic accident in Korea. We first design the traffic accident analysis model, and then collect the traffic accidents data. We preprocessed the collected data and derived some new variables and attributes for analyzing. Next, we analyze based on statistical method and Apriori algorithm. The result shows that many large-scale accident has occurred by vans in daytime. Medium-scale accident has occurred more in day than nighttime, and by cars more than vans. Small-scale accident has occurred more in night time than day time, however, the numbers were similar. Also, car-human accident is more occurred than car-car accident in small-scale accident.

The frequency of car accidents is very high at the intersection. Because of the state of a traffic signal, quarrels happen after accidents. At night many cars run away after causing an accident. In this case, accident analyses have been conducted by investigating evidences such as eyewitness accounts, tire tracks, fragments of the car or collision traces of the car. But these evidences that don't have enough objectivity cause an error in judgment. In the paper, when traffic accidents happen, the traffic accident detection system that stands on the basis of images and sounds detects traffic accidents to acquire abundant evidences. And, this system transmits 10 seconds images to the traffic center through the wired net and stores images to the Smart Media Card. This can be applied to various ways such as accident management, accident DB construction, urgent rescue after awaring the accident, accident detection in tunnel and in inclement weather.

야간에는 주간에 비해 통행량감소에 따른 운전자의 법규위반이 많아지고 음주 및 운전자의 피로가 증가하여 교통사고의 위험성은 급격히 증대된다. 따라서 야간에 발생하는 교통사고를 줄이기 위해서는 야간의 특수성을 고려한 실효성 있는 교통사고 방지대책이 수립되어야 한다. 야간에 보행자 교통사고가 잦은 지점에 LED안전유도블록을 설치하여 도로조명개선 효과를 분석하였다. 횡단보도진입로인 보행자대기구간에 보행선 개념으로 업라이트조명방식인 LED안전유도블록을 설치하여 효과를 분석한 결과, LED를 설치한 지점에서 야간 교통사고 발생건수는 26.2% 부상자수는 21.2% 그리고 사망자 수는 38.3%감소하였다. 본 연구는 안전보행조명장치의 설치시기가 서로 다르며 그 표본의 수가 적어 전국적인 대표성을 가지고 있다고 볼 수는 없으나, 체계적인 분석을 통한 개선사업의 효과를 구체화 할 수 있는 대안은 제시할 수 있을 것이다.

PURPOSES : Low visibility caused by dark surroundings at nighttime affects the likelihood of accidents, and various efforts, such as installing road safety facilities, have been made to reduce accidents at night. Despite these efforts, the nighttime severity index (SI) in Korea was higher than the daytime SI during 2011-2014. This study determined the factors affecting daytime and nighttime accident severity through a discriminant analysis. METHODS : Discriminant analysis. RESULTS : First, drowsiness, lack of attention, and lighting facilities affected both daytime and nighttime accident severity. Accidents were found to be caused by a low ability to recognize the driving conditions and a low obstacle avoidance capability. Second, road conditions and speeding affected only the daytime accident severity. Third, failure to maintain a safe distance significantly affected daytime accident severity and nonsignificantly affected nighttime accident severity. The majority of such accidents were caused by rear-end collisions of vehicles driving in the same direction; given the low relative speed difference in such cases, the shock imparted by the accidents was minimal. CONCLUSIONS : Accidents caused by a failure to maintain a safe distance has lower severity than do accidents caused by other factors.
