PURPOSES : In this study, we quantitatively prove the rubber necking phenomenon for highway traffic accidents and develop a calculation model based on the influencing factors. METHODS : Vehicle detector speed data in the opposite direction to the accident point were used based on the accident data on highways over the past three years, and a comparative verification was performed between nearby vehicle detector data to verify the reliability of the data. Accordingly, a binomial logistic model, ordinal probit regression model, and multilinear regression model were developed to compare the orientation. RESULTS : There was a difference in the influencing factors based on the dependent variable, and the day of the week, vehicle type, weather, longitudinal slope, and median height had an effect. Through a regression analysis, an influence coefficient was derived to calculate the driving speed deceleration value by rubbernecking. The results of the model analysis proved that the speed reduction caused by rubbernecking was more evident during the daytime than at night, during weekends compared to weekdays, and the speed reduction was more obvious for heavy vehicles compared to other types of vehicles. It can also be concluded that longer clearance time, higher accident severity, and higher traffic volume affect traffic delay. To verify the data and model equation, the mean prediction bias (MPB) and mean absolute deviation (MAD) were calculated for hundred cases randomly extracted from the collected accident data. These results were excellent. CONCLUSIONS : It can be developed into a human-engineered model that reflects various road/facility conditions, such as highways, other lanes, general roads, and roads without a median strip. This study is meaningful as a basic study on the quantitative effect of rubber necking.

Since cranes are a kind of complex human-machine systems, it is almost impossible to completely secure safety with current technologies. Therefore, managerial interventions to prevent human errors are needed for safely operating a crane. The Occupational Safety and Health law states that cabin-type crane operators should have crane drivers’ licence and crane-related operators (e.g., pendent-type crane operators, slinging workers) should take a special safety training. However, statistics on industrial accidents showed that fatalities due to crane accidents (185 accidents occurred during 2013~2017) were the highest among hazardous machinery and equipment. To effectively control the crane-related accidents, voices of crane workers need to be analyzed to investigate the current status. This study surveyed perceived causes of crane accidents and status of special safety training for crane workers of 387. The survey revealed that 24.3% of the respondents experienced crane accidents and 31.4% eye-witnessed crane accidents. 79% of the respondents pointed human errors such as improper crane operation and improper slinging as the first cause. Lastly, only 16.7% of the respondents took a professional special safety training; but the rest took lecture-based or incomplete education. The findings of the present study can be applied to improve crane-related policies and special safety training systems.

선원의 상무라는 용어는 해양사고관련자인 선원에게 사고에 대한 책임을 물을 때 사용되는 용어이다. 그러나 선원의 상무에 따른 책임을 부과함에 따라 오히려 책임이 불분명해지기도 하며, 국제해상충돌예방규칙에 명백히 규정되어 있는 항법을 위반한 경우에도 선원의 상무에 따른 책임을 부과함으로써 개선이 필요한 부분이 희석되기도 한다. 해양안전 심판제도가 유사 사고의 재발을 방지하기 위 하여 이미 발생한 사고의 원인을 철저하게 분석하는 과정을 거친다는 사실을 상기할 때 유사 사고의 재발방지에 기여하지 못하는 원인 분석으로써 실행 가능한 한 선원의 상무는 배제하는 것이 적절할 것이다. 이에, 해양사고 조사심판 기관의 존재 이유와 선원의 상무에 대 한 학설을 전체적으로 살펴보고 법원 판결 및 재결서에서 주의의무 사용례를 함께 분석함으로써 관습적ㆍ불문적 항법으로 인식되고 있 는 선원의 상무에 대한 적용을 어떻게 개선할 수 있는지를 검토하였다. 그리고 해양사고 재발 방지라는 관점에서 ‘선원의 상무’를 ‘선원 의 통상적인 업무’라고 바꾸어 쓸 것을 제안하였으며, 합목적적인 적용을 위한 현대적 해석을 제시하였다.

선박의 해양사고 중 부유물 감김사고는 운항지연에 그치지 않고 대형 인명 피해사고까지 이어질 수 있어 이에 대한 예방책이 요구되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 영해와 베타적경제수역 등을 포함한 해역의 최근 5년간 선박의 부유물 감김사고 데이터를 시·공간적 측면 에서 분석하고, 관련 연구 분야에 기초 자료를 제공하고자 한다. 부유물 감김사고의 상대적 밀도 분포를 시각화하기 위하여 이차원 평활 히스토그램을 적용하였으며, 시간대, 주·야간, 계절에 따른 각 변수가 감김사고에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 다항 로지스틱 회귀모형 을 적용하였다. 공간적 분석결과 전체 사고에 대해 평활화된 밀도 값이 높은 곳은 진해만을 포함한 거제도~통영 해상이었으며, 서해 전곡 항 인근 해상, 제주도 북부 해상으로 나타났다. 시간적 분석결과 부유물 감김사고는 주간에 71.4%로 가장 많이 발생하였으며, 계절별로는 가을철이 다른 계절에 비해 가장 많이 발생한 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 어선, 수상레저기구, 낚시어선의 감김사고 발생 가능성이 화물선 보다 높은 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구의 시·공간적 분석결과는 향후 부유물에 대한 단속강화 및 제거를 위한 해양경찰함정 배치와 시간 별·계절별 사고방지를 위한 부유물 사전 제거작업 대책 마련의 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

This paper analyzed a survey of 388 general target samples to analyze the correlation between disaster safety costs and human risk factor analysis and evacuation behavior due to tunnel accidents. Considering the impact of the tunnel accident on disaster safety costs and the correlation between human evacuation and risk factors in the tunnel environment, the system should be reorganized to reflect the tunnel’s basic plan, tunnel cross-section, tunnel installation.

본 연구에서는 석유화학제품 산적운송선(화학유조선)에 의한 해상운송 과정에서 발생한 위험․유해물질(HNS) 관련 해상화학사 고에 대하여 국내 및 국외의 주요 사례를 조사․분석함으로써 얻은 교훈을 소개하고, 이러한 교훈을 바탕으로 국내 해상HNS 교육과정 개 선방안을 제시하였다. 6건의 사고사례를 통하여 얻은 교훈을 1) 사고관련정보, 2) 안전, 3) 오염, 4) 대응, 5) 구난, 6) 기타와 같은 6개 분야로 분류하였다. 각 분야의 세부항목별로 요약된 교훈을 바탕으로 해양환경교육원(MERTI) 유해액체물질운반선 해양오염방지관리인 교육과정을 현행 8개 교과목(16시간)의 2일간 교육을 16개 교과목(24시간)의 3일간 교육으로 개선하는 방안을 제시하였으며, 또한 해양경찰교육원 (KCGA) 전문교육 해양화학사고대응 과정을 현행 15개 교과목(35시간)의 5일간 교육을 32개 교과목(48시간)의 6일간 교육으로 개선하는 방안을 제시하였다. 이러한 연구결과는 해상화학사고 대응에 관한 경험과 교훈을 서로 공유하는 데에 기여하고, 해상HNS사고에 대비한 대응 인력 교육․훈련과정 개선의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In order to collect basic data for the improvement of fishing systems in coastal improved stow net fishery, a questionnaire survey and on-site hearing were conducted from May 10 to June 11, 2019 on the basic items of coastal improved stow net fishery and safety accidents that occurred during fishing operation. The questionnaire for the survey on the actual conditions of coastal improved stow net fishery consisted of a survey on basic matters (six questions) and a questionnaire (six questions) on safety accidents occurring during fishing operation. The results of the survey on basic items were analyzed by region (Incheon, Seocheon, Gunsan and Mokpo), by the captain’s age (less than 50 years of age, 50 to 60 years and more than 60 years of age), by the captain’s career (less than 20 years, 20 to 30 years, 30 to 40 years and more than 40 years) and by the age of fishing vessel (less than 10 years, 10 to 20 years and more than 20 years). According to the survey on basic items of coastal improved stow net fishery such as the captain’s age, the captain’s career, the age of fishing vessel, the fishing nets in use, the crews on board and the operation days per voyage by region, the average captain’s age was 55.7 years, the average captain’s career was 20.5 years, the average age of fishing vessels was 9.0 years, the average numbers of nets used by fishing boats was 14.0 sets, the average numbers of crew on board a fishing boat was 4.4 persons and the average numbers of operation days per voyage was 4.9 days (p < 0.05). As a result of the survey on safety factors during fishing operations, such as experience of ship accidents, major causes of ship accidents experienced, causes of ship accidents (first priority), experience of human accidents, major causes of human accidents, and causes of human accidents (first priority), more than 96% of the respondents experienced ship accidents including collisions with other vessels or fishing gear during fishing operations. The most significant cause of the accident was the other’s fishing gear installed in the fishing grounds. The first possible causes of ship accidents during fishing operations were found to be other fishing gear installed in fishing grounds, steering or engine failure, and inability to avoid accidents during casting and hauling nets. The survey of the experience of human accidents, such as injuries or sea falls, showed that more than 90% of the respondents experienced human accidents during fishing operations. The most important cause of accidents experienced during fishing operations was stucked in a fishing gear during casting and hauling nets. The first important causes of accidents during fishing operations were movement of the fishing gear during casting and hauling nets, damage of the fishing gear such as rope cutting. The results are expected to be provided as a basic data to prevent safety accidents occurring during fishing operation and improve the fishing system in the coastal improved stow net fishery.
