Abstract

For bus drivers' safe driving, a policy that analyzes the causes of the drivers' traffic accidents and then assists their safe driving is required. Therefore, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport set up its plan to gradually expand the equipping of commercial vehicles with FCWS (Forward Collision Warning System) and LDWS(Lane Departure Warning System), from the driver-supporting ADAS(Advanced Driver Assistance Systems). However, there is not much basic research on the analysis of bus drivers' traffic accidents in Korea. As such, the time is appropriate to research what is the most necessary ADAS for bus drivers going forward to prevent bus accidents. The purpose of this research is to analyze how serious the accidents were in the different bus routes and whether the accidents were repetitive, and to give recommendations on how to support ADAS for buses, as an improvement. A model of ordered logit was used to analyze how serious the accidents were and as a result, vehicle to pedestrian accidents which directly affected individuals were statistically significant in all of the models, and violations of regulations, such as speeding, traffic signal violation and violation of safeguards for passengers, were indicated in common in several models. Therefore, the pedestrian-sensor system and automatic emergency control device for pedestrian should be installed to reduce bus accidents directly affecting persons in the future, and education for drivers and ADAS are to be offered to reduce the violations of regulations.

버스운전자의 안전운행을 확보하기 위해서는 운전자 교통사고 원인 등을 분석해 안전운행을 지원 할 수 있는 정책이 뒷받침되어야 한다. 따라서 국토교통부는 사업용 차량에 운전자를 보조하는 첨단 운전자지원시스템 중 전방충돌경고장치, 차선이탈경고장치의 장착의무대상을 단계적으로 확대하는 방안을 마련한 바 있다. 그러나 버스운전자 교통사고분석과 관련된 기초 연구는 국내에서 많이 수행되고 있지 않아, 버스사고예방을 위하여 향후 버스운전자에게 가장 필요한 첨단 운전자지원시스템이 무엇인지에 대한 연구가 필요한 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 버스유형 및 반복사고 여부별 사고심각도를 분석하고 개선방안으로 버스의 첨단 운전자지원시스템 지원 방향을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 사고심각도 분석은 순서형 로짓 모형을 이용해 분석하였으며 분석결과, 차대사람사고는 모든 모형에서 통계적으로 유의미하게 선정되었고 법규위반항목의 속도위반, 신호위반, 승객을 위한 안전조치위반이 제안된 모형에서 공통적으로 선정되었다. 따라서 향후 버스 대 사람사고를 감소시킬 수 있는 보행자감지시스템, 보행자 자동긴급제어장치의 설치가 반드시 필요하다.
