최근 교통상황을 정확하게 관측할 수 있는 교통류 검지에 관한 기술개발과 더불어 개별차량 주행궤적을 이용한 교통안전도 평가기법에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 개별차량의 주행궤적을 이용하여 다음시점(t+1) 의 후미추돌 확률을 산출하는 방법론을 제시하였다. 신뢰성 있는 예측 기법인 칼만 필터링(Kalman Filtering)을 이용하여 주행궤적을 예측하고, 예측된 시점에 대한 개별차량의 후미추돌 확률을 산출하였다. 안전도를 평가하는 확률모형을 수립하기 위해서 서해안 고속도로의 동영상 자료로부터 개별차량의 주행궤적을 추출하였다. 추출한 개별차량의 주행궤적 자료를 이항 로지스틱 회귀분석(Binary logistic regression)을 이용하여 차량의 차로변경 결정 확률 모형을 생성하였고, exponential decay function을 이용하여 surrogate safety measure(SSM)의 하나인 time-to-collision(TTC)기반의 추돌확률 모형을 생성하였다. 미시적 교통류 시뮬레이터인 VISSIM에서 추출한 개별차량의 주행궤적 데이터를 이용하여 제안된 방법론을 평가하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 교통류 감시, 제어 및 정보 시스템에 효과적으로 적용될 수 있으며, 나아가 교통사고 예방에 효율적인 대안이 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study is a study on the development of AEBS test scenarios for traffic accidents in Korea, and was compared and analyzed using the Traffic Accident Analysis Program. To ensure the safety of passengers and pedestrians in traffic accidents, the number of cars equipped with ADAS is increasing rapidly at all car manufacturers in each country. For traffic accidents used in this study, the domestic traffic accident database (ACCC) produced by SAMSONG was used. Domestic traffic accidents differ from overseas traffic accidents in terms of road type, signal system, driver's seat location and number of vehicles. ACCC databases, which supplemented and reinforced these differences, built a database based on the PC-CRASH program. In the study, we analyze the types of accidents to develop comparative scenarios for each type of road and collision type of traffic accidents. When the road types of traffic accidents in Korea were divided into five types and the collision types were divided into six, it was confirmed that the most types of FRONT-SIDE crashes appeared at the intersection. It is expected that the frequency of possible traffic accidents and collision types can be predicted according to the road type in the accident database, we that it can be used as an AEBS test scenario development suitable for the domestic road environment.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to develop a crash prediction model at signalized intersections, which can capture the randomness and uncertainty of traffic accident forecasting in order to provide more precise results. METHODS : The authors propose a random parameter (RP) approach to overcome the limitation of the Count model that cannot consider the heterogeneity of the assigned locations or road sections. For the model's development, 55 intersections located in the Daejeon metropolitan area were selected as the scope of the study, and panel data such as the number of crashes, traffic volume, and intersection geometry at each intersection were collected for the analysis. RESULTS : Based on the results of the RP negative binomial crash prediction model developed in this study, it was found that the independent variables such as the log form of average annual traffic volume, presence or absence of left-turn lanes on major roads, presence or absence of right-turn lanes on minor roads, and the number of crosswalks were statistically significant random parameters, and this showed that the variables have a heterogeneous influence on individual intersections. CONCLUSIONS : It was found that the RP model had a better fit to the data than the fixed parameters (FP) model since the RP model reflects the heterogeneity of the individual observations and captures the inconsistent and biased effects.

In general, the crash reduction effect of the rumble strip is reported to be about 30% in Korea, while it is about 40-60% in the United States. However, the effect is erroneously overestimated because the simple comparison was only made before and after the installation. Accordingly, this study will reassess the crash reduction effect of the rumble strip. The study will also examine the former's geometric characteristics as well as its effect on the causes of the crash. This study analyzed the crash effect while taking into consideration the changes in the horizontal and vertical alignment, including the width of pavement shoulders, using the crash data for two years before and after the installation of the rumble strip. The types of crash caused by the rumble strip were identified using the classification discriminant function. The crash effect on the rumble strip is estimated to be 28.3%, but the pure effect, with the exception of the effect by other elements, was analyzed to be 7.4%. For each expressway design element, the downhill section (2.0-3.0%), the section with less than 3,000 m and more than 10,000 m of the curve radius, and the section with less than 3.0 m of the pavement shoulder width were found to be effective in crash reduction. For each cause of crash, the rumble strip was analyzed to be effective in the reduction of crash caused by "not keeping the safe distance", "sleeping", "negligence in keeping eyes forward", and "excessive handle operation". In particular, the rumble strip was analyzed and seen to be especially effective in preventing crash caused by "not keeping a safe distance," and "sleeping". The installation of the rumble strip was found to be effective in the prevention of crash caused by "not keeping the safe distance" and "sleeping". The results of this study may thus be used in deciding the causes of crash and the installation location of the tailored rumble strip that would be suitable for the geometric characteristics of the roads. This study will also be helpful in the establishment of future traffic safety measures.

Research on the safety of autonomous vehicle is being conducted in various countries, including the European Union, and computer simulation techniques so called 'Virtual Tool Chain' are mainly used. As part of the crash safety study of autonomous vehicle, 25 car to car collision scenarios were provided as a result of a real accident-based accident reproduction analysis study conducted by a domestic research institution, and a vehicle crash analysis was performed using the FE car to car model of the Honda Accord. In order to analyze the results of the car to car simulation and to construct a database, major crash parameters were selected as impact speed, angle, location, and overlap, and a method of defining them in an indexed form was presented. In order to compare the crash severity of each scenario, a value obtained by integrating the resultant acceleration measured by the ACU of the vehicle was applied. The equivalent collision test mode was derived by comparing the crash severity of the regulation test mode, 30 deg rigid barrier mode, in the same way.

PURPOSES : The bridge section of the expressway has a worse driving environment than the general section. However, traffic safety countermeasures are focused only on the bridge section. Traffic safety countermeasures on the section before entry to the bridge and the section after exit from the bridge are applied only when the bridge has a long-span section. Accordingly, this study will verify the necessity of extending the application of traffic safety countermeasures to areas that are affected by the bridge. METHODS : This study determines the areas that are affected by the bridge as well as the areas that are affected by locations with frequent traffic accidents and suggests the risk factors by affected areas through canonical discriminant analysis. For the analysis, traffic accident data for 3 years, which occurred on bridge sections in six major expressway lines, were used. RESULTS : The numbers of traffic accidents were 469 before the bridge, 281 on the bridge, and 468 after the bridge. The variables that have impact on the seriousness of accidents are as follows: speeding, excess manipulation of the steering wheel, and failure to secure safety distance for accidents that occurred before the bridge section; speeding, excess manipulation of the steering wheel, and dozing off for accidents that occurred on the bridge; and speeding and failure to secure safety distance for accidents that occurred after the bridge section. CONCLUSIONS : Areas affected by the bridge show higher accident rates than the bridge section; therefore, imposing traffic safety countermeasures on the integrated section of the bridge and the affected areas is required. It is believed that the results suggested in this study could be effectively used in the prevention of traffic accidents by imposing custom-made safety countermeasures for each section.

This paper reports an analysis of cyclist accident cases with respect to passenger vehicles on Korean roads. A typology based on Initiative for the Global Harmonization of Accident Data (iGLAD) code book is applied to a traffic accident analysis system(TAAS), which has the real-world crash data on Korea roads, to understand the accident scenarios in more detail and efficiently. Similarly this typology has been used for Germany In-Depth Accidents Study (GIDAS) as well. The accident data analysis with consideration of the typology of Korean road conditions may prioritize traffic safety issues regarding cyclists and is aimed to develop an Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system for cyclist. In summary, this paper characterizes and analyzes the scenarios of cyclist crashes with passenger car. The most common accident scenarios on Korean roads are Car-to-Bicyclist Nearside Adult (CBNA) and Car-to-Bicyclist Longitudinal Adult (CBLA), which are more than 86% of total accidents cases. Therefore, it is inferred that AEB cyclist system should include these accident types in the operational design domain to reduce more fatality in Korea.

고속도로에서 발생된 교통사고 지속시간은 교통혼잡에 심각한 영향을 미친다. 일반적으로, 교통사고 지속시간은 사고의 검지시간, 대응시간, 처리시간으로 구성되며, 이 중 사고의 검지 및 대응시간은 최근 스마트폰 보급률 증가로 인해 매우 감소된 것으로 추정된다. 따라서 교통사고 처리팀에 의해 수행되는 사고 처리시간의 관리는 교통사고로 인한 교통혼잡 관리에 매우 중요한 요인이 된다. 본 연구는 고속도로 교통사고 처리에 영향을 미치는 주요 인자를 파악하는 것이 목적이다. 분석을 위해 2013년 전국 30개 주요 고속도로에서 발생한 총 6,870건의 자료를 이용하였다. 고속도로 사고 처리시간에 영향을 주는 인자 분석을 위해 Cox 모형을 활용하였다. 분석결과, 13개의 변수가 교통사고 처리시간에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 사고 처리시간을 증가시키는 요인은 터널에서 발생한 사고, 사망자가 발생한 사고, 사고차량수, 사고 후 상태의 상태가 전도 혹은 화재로 이어진 사고, 차량이 완파된 사고, 화물(대형) 및 트레일러 사고, 야간에 발생한 사고인 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 톨게이트에서 발생한 사고, 차-시설 사고, 승용차 사고, 종단구배가 평탄한 구간에서 발생한 사고는 다른 환경에서 발생한 사고보다 사고 처리시간을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 고속도로에서 사고 발생 시 혼잡에 영향을 줄 수 있는 사고 처리시간의 감소 전략 수립을 위한 기반정보로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

교통사고는 단일요인에 의해 발생하기도 하지만 대부분 다양한 요인이 복합적으로 작용하여 교통사고의 사후분석시 명확한 인과관계를 규명하는데 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 초보운전자에 의한 교통사고를 대상으로 교통사고의 심각도에 영향을 주는 요인들에 대해 분석하였다. 사고발생 시 인명피해가 큰 보행자-차량 교통사고의 사고 심각도를 종속변수로 설정하고 사고 심각도의 증가에 유의한 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단되는 성별, 연령, 교통법규위반 횟수, 교통사고위치 등의 운전자 특성에 관련된 각종 변수들을 독립변수로 설정하여 운전자 운전 경력에 따라 분류하였다. 이항 로지스틱 회귀분석(BLR)을 적용하여 운전경력별 사고심각도 영향 요인을 도출하였다. 분석결과, 운전경력 그룹에 관계없이 운전자 연령, 교통법규위반 횟수, 교통사고위치가 보행자-차량 교통사고 심각도 증가에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제시한 교통사고 심각도에 영향을 미치는 운전자 특성은 향후 운전자 인적 특성과 더불어 도로환경 및 차량관련 요소에 관련된 교통사고 심각도에 영향을 미치는 요인 분석에 효과적으로 사용될 것으로 기대된다.
