PURPOSES : As the number of fixed traffic enforcement equipments increase rapidly, it is necessary to improve efficient operation and management plans. The aim of this study is to evaluate the factors influencing fixed traffic enforcement equipment failure. METHODS : This study utilized binary logistic regression analysis using the database provided by the Korean Road Traffic Authority to evaluate the factors affecting the failure of fixed traffic enforcement equipment. RESULTS : As a result of the evaluation of this study, the main factors affecting failure were red-light camera, old equipment, Jeju, National expressways, and equipment with low speed limits. CONCLUSIONS : This study can be used as basic data on the improvement of operation management plas for maintenance of traffic enforcement equipment. Through this study, it will be possible to establish a step-by-step plan with high efficiency comapared to the input of required manpower.

PURPOSES : This study is to analyze the reduction effect on road pavement damage from the installation of weigh-in-motion systems used for overloaded vehicle enforcement, from the perspective of traffic assignment. METHODS : Fixed-demand multi-class traffic assignment was conducted by VISUM, a macroscopic traffic simulation software. We considered three vehicle classes and calculated the traffic load for each road link using the ESAL(Equivalent Single Wheel Load) factor, as proposed by ASHTTO(American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials). We set up scenarios with weigh-in-motion installations in certain sections and observed how the traffic load changed before and after the installation of weigh-in-motion for each scenario. RESULTS : Three main trends were observed. Firstly, at points where weigh-in-motion systems were installed, traffic load significantly decreased even with the influx of cars and trucks following the restriction of overloaded trucks, highlighting the significant influence of overweight vehicles on the traffic load. Secondly, even when overweight vehicles detoured, there was no significant change in the overall network's traffic load. Lastly, the detour of overweight vehicles led to an increase in the total driving distance and time for all vehicles. CONCLUSIONS : Installing weigh-in-motion systems in sections with a lower structure number, which indicates thinner road pavement, can prevent damage in those specific areas without affecting the entire road network.

PURPOSES : In this study, we aim to broaden the understanding of the factors influencing the accuracy of WIM systems for overload enforcement. Particularly, we explored the proportions and causes of secondary influencing factors (driving path, vehicle class, and acceleration), which have been relatively less studied and reduced the accuracy of the WIM system. METHODS : Overload enforcement data were recorded by the WIM system, and enforcement officers were gathered. The ratios of each data point, which are the relative errors, are used to estimate the accuracy of the WIM system. These relative errors were classified into four driving-path groups, four vehicle-class groups, and three acceleration groups. The change in the accuracy of the WIM system caused by each influencing factor was analyzed by comparing the difference in the average relative error between the classified groups. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Welch's ANOVA were used to determine significant differences between groups. RESULTS : Vehicles departing from a normal driving path make it difficult for the GVW compensation algorithm of the WIM system to operate properly. For these abnormal paths, the standard deviation of the average GVW relative error was 22%. There was no specific trend in the difference in accuracy by vehicle class. However, we found that the rear axle and retractable axle were the main causes of the reduced GVW accuracy in each vehicle class. The average GVW relative error remained the same regardless of the acceleration, but the average FAW relative error of the accelerated vehicle was approximately 2.5% lower than that of the unaccelerated vehicle. CONCLUSIONS : An abnormal driving path, lifting of a retractable axle, and rapid acceleration (or deceleration) reduce the accuracy of WIM systems. Intelligent transportation systems, such as traffic signals, telematics devices, and applications that induce desirable driving are required for effective overload enforcement. Additionally, it is necessary to smoothen the road pavement to minimize the dynamic effects on the rear axle.

본 연구에서는 동태성과 시간을 고려한 시스템다이내믹스 관점에서 낚시어선의 낚시활동에 있어서 단속 및 처벌의 강화(정책 개입)에 따라 시스템 구조가 어떻게 변화하는지 알아보고 그에 따른 전략수립 방향을 논의하고자 한다. 지금까지 낚시어선의 단속과 처 벌은 사고예방이라는 사전적 차원에서 일시적 단기적으로 단속을 실시하고 처벌을 부과했다. 그러나 변칙적이고 다양한 부작용으로 소기 의 성과를 거두지 못하였고, 안전사고는 끊임없이 발생하고 또 다시 후속조치가 뒤따라가는 형국을 보이고 있다. 본 연구의 결과에 따르 면, 낚시어선의 단속과 처벌이 강화된 안전기준으로 사고 예방을 위한 시설 장비 산업 등 관련 사항 개선 및 기술개발(시간지연 발생)보다 는 즉각적이고 큰 저항이 없는 음성적(불법적) 활동을 지속함에 따라 사고예방을 위한 안전사각지대를 최소화하지 못하고 있다. 이와같이 동태적 매커니즘과 시간이라는 변수를 충분히 고려하지 않고 단선적 사고에 입각한 정책개입으로는 정책이 추구하는 기본적 가치를 오 히려 왜곡시킬 수 있다. 낚시어선의 단속과 처벌에 있어서 강화된 안전기준의 마련에 앞서 관련 기술의 개선 및 개발, 낚시인 낚시산업체 관련기관 등 다양한 주체들에 대한 교육시간 의무화, 낚시관련 산업 육성을 위한 낚시 관리 및 육성법의 구체적인 방안 제시와 같은 매커 니즘을 보완하는 전략을 마련해야 한다.

자동차 음주운전의 경우에는 그 위험성에 대한 사회일반의 경각심이 고조되고 있으며, 이에 따라 점차 감소하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 이에 반하여 선박의 음주운항은 선상의 음주에 관대한 오랜 관습, 음주여부 확인의 현실적인 어려움 등에 따라 줄어들지 않고 있는 상황이다. 2019년 러시아 선적 화물선 시그랜드호가 음주운항 중 광안대교와 충돌하는 사건을 비롯하여 국내에서 선박 등의 음주운항을 한 사실의 적발 및 음주 운항으로 인한 해상사고가 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 위 사건 등의 영향으로 ｢해사안전법｣이 개정되기도 하였으나, 동법 외에도 다수의 법령에 단속 근거, 음주운항 판단기준 및 처벌기준이 분산 되어 있다는 문제점을 지적할 만하다. 나아가 단속절차에 관해서도 ｢해사안전법｣, ｢경찰관직무집행법｣ 외에도 ｢해양경비법｣ 등이 적용된다 하 겠으나 제정목적 상의 일부 차이가 있으며, 단속절차에 관하여 규율이 미진한 부분이 존재하는 등의 한계가 있다. 이에 관해서는 단속 상대방의 권익보호를 위해서 절차보장이 필요하다고 본다. 나아가 철도･항공과 같은 출발 전 사전음주여부 등에 관한 측정하도록 하는 제도의 도입될 필요성이 있고, 음주사실 확인시 선박의 예인 또는 긴급시 해양경찰청 경찰공무원에 의한 대리운항 등을 허용하여야 할 것으로 생각된다. 이와 같은 사후조치 과정에서의 사고 등으로 인하여 해양경찰공무원 등이 개인적인 손해배상 책임을 면할 수 있는 특례규정을 두는 방안 등도 검토하여야 할 것으로 생각한다.

PURPOSES : Arterial work zones, particularly at signalized intersections, have several characteristics and effects different from freeways. This paper presents three significant work zone effects on signalized intersections: (1) saturation headway change (saturation flow rate change), (2) green time (g/C ratio) change, and (3) progression speed degradation impacts on bandwidth performance. METHODS : Both saturation flow rate reduction and g/C reduction were selected as the work zone impact variables for a signalized intersection, while bandwidth capacity reduction was chosen to measure the impact of work zones on arterials. The authors established a statistical model and normalized g/C table to estimate saturation headways and the g/C ratio at signalized intersection work zones based on the work intensity, pavement condition, ledge presence, turn percentages from shared lanes, and number of closed exclusive turn lanes. In addition, the dynamic bandwidth capacity and bandwidth solution space change based on the progression speed were introduced in this study. RESULTS : A normalized g/C ratio distribution was developed to estimate both the non-work zone and work zone g/C ratios under different work zone configurations. The results of the estimated work zone capacity using the work zone saturation headway model and the g/C ratio distribution showed that the estimated capacity reduction ranged from 32.78%~2.93%. In addition, arterial dynamic bandwidth and its capacity were both critically influenced by the progression speed. CONCLUSIONS : The proposed model and method will help practitioners understand the factors that cause a decrease in the saturation flow rate and g/C and influence progression quality on the urban arterial street due to work zones. Moreover, the proposed model and method can guide the calibration of simulation tools to properly represent the resulting capacity effects of work zones on arterial streets.

PURPOSES : Many people recommend the expansion of the drone market and various ways of using drones. However, unreasonable expansion may cause various social problems. Therefore, criteria and systems for the expansion are required. This paper presents a review of the system using drones for managing and enforcing illegal parking, and recommendations on improvement. METHODS : This paper presents a review of the system using drones for managing and enforcing illegal parking, and recommendations on improvement. RESULTS : This study shows that new enforcement criteria are required for a new enforcement method using drones. In addition, consignment operation is needed to solve workforce shortage and secure expertise, and flight mitigation criteria are required, considering the illegal parking characteristics based on region and time. Finally, CCTV operation guidelines should be improved to clarify the definition of drone images and prevent unreasonable information collection. CONCLUSIONS : Illegal parking enforcement using drones is an efficient method that is highly feasible and solves enforcement limitation issues, such as the lack of workforce and equipment. A prior institutional review is required to apply new technologies more efficiently, and proposals on improving the legal systems with limitations are required through continuous research.

PURPOSES : This study aimed to evaluate the influence of weigh-in-motion (WIM)-based overloading enforcement systems on the performance of a traffic stream. METHODS: A VISSIM simulator was used for the evaluation of various scenarios. Actual WIM event data collected from the field was used for simulation parameter calibrations. A genetic algorithm was incorporated into the calibration procedure to identify the optimal set of parameters. The impact of the overloading enforcement systems on the traffic stream was investigated from the perspective of mobility, safety, and environmental compatibility. RESULTS: The existing enforcement system is generally superior to the new pilot enforcement system. CONCLUSIONS : Policies and regulations to fully exploit the benefits of WIM-based enforcement systems on freeways need to be developed and implemented. In addition, various enforcement scenarios should be tested on both actual and simulated environments.

The push-out tests have been conducted on the specimens which consist of the steel beam with U-shape section and the cap-type shear connectors with constant intervals. Existing equations for the evaluation of shear connector strength have been investigated on the basis of test results. The reinforcing bars for longitudinal reinforcement and the penetrative bars for transverse reinforcement didn’t have much effect on the shear capacity of the cap-type shear connector. The larger the width of cap-type shear connector was profiled, the greater the shear strength turned. The shear capacities of cap-type shear connectors with constant intervals were evaluated on the basis of push-out test results, and those were possible to be determined with proper safety margin using the Eurocode 4. The slip capacity of cap-type shear connector was shown to exceed the limit value of 6mm for sufficiently ductile behavior.

PURPOSES: Traffic cameras have been installed to reduce traffic accidents. The effectiveness of traffic cameras has been proved by dozens of studies, but recently questions over its effectiveness have been raised by a series of studies. In this study, the effectiveness of traffic cameras was analyzed with a focus on different road environments. METHODS : The effectiveness of the traffic cameras was analyzed by extracting the occurence frequency before and after camera installation. The effect of reduction was analyzed comprehensively considering the installation position, monitoring direction, and surrounding environment of traffic cameras. RESULTS : The result of this study is as follows. First, the installation of cameras in an area with relatively low accidental traffic was more effective. Secondly, the effect of camera installation on car-to-pedestrian collisions was better than that of car-to-car collisions. Thirdly, accidents tended to occur more frequently when cameras were installed in front of the accident-prone owing to the negative spill-over effect. CONCLUSIONS: The result can be used to guide placement of traffic cameras. Moreover, the installation of cameras with consideration of the road environment is expected to contribute to a reduction in traffic fatalities.

현재 전국 고속도로망에는 무인 과속단속장비인 구간 과속단속장비와 지점 과속단속장비가 설치 및 운영되고 있다. 일반적으로 무인 과속단속장비는 주행차량의 과속에 따른 교통사고 방지에 효과가 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 교통사고 현황자료를 이용하여 무인 과속단속장비인 구간 과속단속장비 및 지점 과속단속장비 설치 지점에 대한 교통사고 현황자료를 통해서 효과를 분석하고자 한다. 분석 구간 전체를 대상으로 연간 단위 연장당 교통사고 건수를 산정하였다. 구간 과속단속장비의 경우 시종점부 전후 각각 1km 대상으로 연간 단위 연장당 교통사고 건수를 산정하였다. 지점 과속단속장비 설치 지점 또한 전후 1km를 대상으로 연간 단위 연장당 교통사고 건수를 산정하였다. 분석대상 구간은 영동선 신갈JCT(41.8k)∼강릉JCT(234k) 양방향으로 선정하였다. 분석기간은 2011년∼2016년이며, 분석 자료는 한국도로공사에서 수집 중인 고속도로 교통사고 정보 자료(D급 포함)를 이용하였다. 분석대상 구간 전체의 연간 단위 연장당 사고건수는 1.97건으로 나타났다. 해당구간에는 구간 과속단속장비가 4개소 설치되어 있으며, 지점 과속단속장비는 13개소에 설치되어 있다. 구간 과속단속장비 설치 지점에 대한 연간 단위 연장당 사고건수는 0.99건이며, 지점 과속단속장비 설치 지점의 경우 1.01건으로 나타났다. 구간 과속단속장비 및 지점 과속단속장비 설치 지점을 대상으로 전체 무인 과속단속장비 설치 지점에 대한 연간 단위 연장당 사고건수는 1.00건으로 전체 대상구간 비해서 무인 과속단속장비 설치 지점의 사고 건수가 더 낮은 것으로 분석되었다. 분석대상 구간에는 강릉방향과 인천방향에 각 2개소씩 총 4개소의 구간 과속단속장비가 설치되어 있다. 구간 과속단속장비가 설치된 구간 전체에 대해서 연간 단위 연장당 사고건수 산정결과 구간 과속단속장비가 설치된 4개소 전체 연장에 대한 연간 단위 연장당 사고건수는 0.59건으로 미단속 구간 및 지점 과속단속장비 설치 지점에 비해서 사고건수가 낮은 것으로 분석되었다

고속도로 터널부에서 발생하는 교통사고는 일반부와 다른 도로환경으로 인해 대형사고 발생 위험이 높은 구간이라 할 수 있다. 국내에서는 고속도로 터널부 사고 감소를 위한 대책의 일환으로 2007년부터 구간과속단속 시스템이 도입·운영되고 있다. 구간과속단속 시스템은 속도제어가 필요하다고 판단되는 도로구간을 대상으로 차량의 평균주행속도를 측정하여 제한속도 위반여부를 판단하는 시스템이다. 구간과속단속 시스템은 단속 장비가 설치된 지점에서만 속도를 줄이고, 지점 통과 후 다시 가속하는 ‘캥거루 드라이빙’에 따른 사고위험을 완화하고, 교통류 안정화를 통해 사고를 저감하는데 효과적인 교통관리기법으로 알려져 점차 도입이 확대되고 있다. 하지만 그 효과를 정량적으로 분석한 연구사례는 그리 많지 않으며, 특히 터널부에서의 효과를 함께 검토한 연구는 거의 전무한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 터널부를 포함하여 구간과속단속 시스템이 설치된 고속도로 6개 구간을 대상으로 시스템 설치 효과를 평가하기 위하여 시스템 설치 전·후의 교통사고, 교통량 및 속도 자료를 수집하여 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 구간과속단속 구간 내에서는 평균속도와 속도 분산이 대부분 감소하여 구간과속단속이 교통류를 보다 안정된 상태로 형성하는데 기여하는 효과를 확인하였다. 또한 Empirical Bayes method와 Turning Point Analysis 기법을 적용하여 사고건수의 변화를 비교하고, Proportional Test를 통해 터널 내 사고 특성 변화를 관찰함으로써 구간과속단속 효과를 정량적으로 제시하고자 한다

PURPOSES: The objective of this study was to analyze variations in the vehicle driving behavior characteristics on signalized intersections according to the use of traffic enforcement camera (red light camera). METHODS: In order to analyze the driving behavior characteristics on signalized intersections when red light camera are installed, the target sites for investigation were selected depending on whether the red light camera is installed and accident rates increased after the installation. In particular, to analyze the characteristics of dilemma zones in signalized intersections, approach speed and deceleration speed of 3 type vehicles (passing vehicles during a yellow light, stopping at a yellow light, passing vehicles during a green light) were examined. Based on these data, the starting point, ending point, and distance of the dilemma zones were calculated. Also, the locations of increased traffic accidents and decreased accidents after the installation of the equipment were distinguished when analyzing the traffic accident characteristics. RESULTS : Analysis results revealed that there was a tendency for the dilemma zone distance to decrease after the installation of equipment(red light camera) in most sites. This tendency was found to be due to the decrease in the approaching speed of vehicles at intersections after the installation of equipment, resulting in the starting and ending points of dilemma zone to become closer to the stop line. Moreover, analysis showed that the number of traffic accidents decreased for most intersections after the installation of equipment and safety of the intersections increased somewhat. CONCLUSIONS : In general, installation of equipment(red light camera) caused the intersections approaching speed and dilemma zone distance to decrease. Decision-making is difficult for drivers in the dilemma zone, so the decrease in the dilemma zone distance implies an improvement in traffic safety. Furthermore, the number of accidents within intersections significantly decreased after the equipment was installed, leading to the conclusion that installation of the equipment affected the decrease in traffic accidents.

대한민국 배타적 경제수역에서중국어선에 의한 불법조업이 지속되어 수산 자원이 고갈되는 한편, 조업분쟁이 발생하고 있다. 특히, 중국어선들의 불법조 업이 조직화․폭력화되면서 단속공무원들의 사망 등 인명사고가 지속적으로 발 생하고 있는 현실이다. 이에 한국 정부에서는 문제 해결을 위해 다각도의 노력을 경주해왔는데, ’08 년도 ‘해상공권력 강화 대책’, ’11년도 ‘불법조업 근절 종합대책’ 뿐 만 아니라, ‘12년도에는 국민안전처 해양경비안전본부(구, 해양경찰청)에서 「해양경비법」을 제정하여 불법조업 단속을 위한 추적․나포, 무기 사용 요건 등을 정립하기 이른다. 이러한 노력에도 불구하고 중국 연안 해역에서의 수산자원 고갈에 따 른 중국어선의 대한민국 해역에서의 불법조업은 아직까지도 그치지 않고 있다. 불법조업으로 인한 경제적 이익이 있는 한 중국어선의 이러한 행위는 쉽게 근 절되지 않을 것이며, 한국 정부는 외교적 노력을 병행하는 동시에 적법한 단속 을 통한 법질서 확립에 노력해야 할 것이다. 국민안전처 해양경비안전본부는 그동안 해양경찰청이라는 독립된 외청의 형 태로 불법조업 현장의 최일선에서 법을 집행하며, 적절한 무력을 행사해왔다. 최근에는 철갑, 쇠창살 등으로 중무장하고 집단적으로 폭력 저항하는 불법조업 중국어선에 대해 새로운 단속장비를 도입하고 전술체계를 발전시켜 나가고 있 다. 하지만, 이러한 새로운 장비와 전술, 법률 등이 국제적으로 통용되는 협약 과 관례․판례에 적합한지?, 외교적 분쟁의 소지는 없는지? 등을 사전에 고찰하 며 대비책을 마련할 기회가 부족하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 그 동안 국내․외에서 발생한 불법조업 단속 관련한 국제 분쟁이나, 외교적 마찰사례 등을 살펴보고, 신설되는 해양경비안전본부에 필요 한 국내법 및 제도 등의 개선방안을 제시하기 위한 것이다.

PURPOSES : Before-and-after studies of red light cameras were conducted with the aim of reducing the number of side right-angle collisions. Three different methods were used for the before-and-after studies, and the analysis results were compared. METHODS: This research used the naive before-and-after method, the comparison-group method, and the empirical Bayes method to study the effects of red light cameras on side-angle collisions. The results of the three before-and-after methods were compared and interpreted in terms of safety indications at signalized intersections. RESULTS: The research results showed that side right-angle collisions can be reduced by installing red light cameras at signalized intersections. All three methods guarantee safety improvements of 25~30% on average. With regard to the results of each method, the naive before-and-after method, the comparison-group method, and the empirical Bayes method showed safety improvements of 25.6%, 27.8%, and 29.7%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: It was concluded that red light cameras are an effective countermeasure to improve intersection safety. In particular, by installing red light cameras, side right-angle collisions can be reduced by up to approximately 25~30%.
