In modern society, driving is regarded as an essential activity of daily living. The number of driver's license holder is about 24,680,000, near 50.9% of the population. Together this, the age group which gets the driver's license has been lowering and the getting the driver's license rates of women and the old has been increasing. Since the driver's license system was adopted in our country, 1913, it has been changed and developed a lot to be settled down. Especially, entering 1990s, the number of driver's license holder was increased rapidly and the government tightened the education on safe driving to cultivate qualified drivers. Also to strengthen the professionalism of Driving school, government adopted ‘Professional Driving School System' in July 1995 and tried to pave the way for more effective driver's license test system. From 1996, government adopted indoor and road test which has electronic grading ways and etc in regular sequence, and gave driving schools authority to execute indoor test and road test itself. Entering 2000s, to pave the systematic way for driver's license test business and management, the driver's licensed test agency which is the administration agency and manages 26 driver's license test hall throughout the nations was founded on January 1st, 2000. Besides, there have been lots of changes; giving great deal of opportunity to get driver's license for disabled people, abolishing unnecessary parts and customizing qualifying test for real and etc. Also to have people be benefited in administrative measures, some laws have been made and changed. All of these improvements and changes are for cultivating qualified divers, reduce the incidence of traffic accident and build the developed traffic culture. However, in spite of many changes and improvement on current driver's license test system, the number of killed and injured people has been increasing. And groping for proper improvements by sweeping research, analysis on current driver's licensed test must be settle without delay to reduce the incidence of traffic accident and breaking poor traffic culture. We should emerge from driver's license test for just and only for getting license and set driver's license test system which can make progress to settle developed traffic culture. To achieve it, we should grasp the problem of current driver's license test system and draw proper measurements. Lately, like traffic developed countries, the death rate of traffic accidents has been decreased with the development of automobile and health care technology. However, by estimating the fact that the incidence of traffic accident and injured rate from it has been rather increased in spite of great efforts, such as adopting professional driving school, improving technical test, increasing opportunity of traffic safety education and modified written test questions, it is hard to expect to reach the developed traffic culture and reduce traffic accident rate of current driver's license test system. At present, among the OECD countries, we and Japan are the only one which enforce indoor test system for getting driver's license. And we are the only countries which evaluates driving ability with indoor course facilities and electronic grading machine. In spite of these, we and Japan stands 1st and 2nd place for ‘death and injured rate of car accident per 10,000 car. Also as we see from the fact that an accident rate of new drivers in our country takes the first place in the world, we can make a case for full-scale changes and improvement of current driver's license test system. It is only just that a driver who is considerate not only of own safety but also of other's safety is eligible to get issue the driver's license. So the driver's license test system should improved to check these with tighten examination and verified methods. Under these circumstance, the problem and improvement of current driver's license test system are as follows. First, Driver's License Agency is dualed with Drivers License Examination Office and Driving School. And it makes the license test hard to keep up the fairness and professionalism. Furthermore, it retards the trust in the test. To solve this problem, the government should take up the supervisory authority of driving school, and build a one-agency supervisory system. And a fair and professional driving license test system with national standard should be established. In addition, the driving school takes only a role of educational facilities, and give written and practical road test lessons to cultivate drivers with good driving habits. Second, an improvement of effectiveness on driver's license test education. The current education related getting driver's license consists of written which is enforced by professional driving school and traffic safety education which is enforced by Road Traffic Authority. However, due to the lack of program and institutional problems, appliers have a propensity to avoid these education. Also the agencies in charge of these just observe forms. Increasing more education time on written test which takes off at driving school and institutionalizing it, developing various practical and essential education contents and applying these for actual driving came out as ways to solve these problems. With these, it's able to be settle down as an education field which cultivates good drivers. Third, it needs to have a thorough grasp of written test problem and make improvements. It's been discussed to leave a charge of setting write written test questions and executing it to private agency. However, the state organ must be in charge of the written test same as at present. And the same goes for the oversea cases. Furthermore, deviating from the learning by rote, the written test should be improved to have practical contents which really need for real driving. And it is need to give added significance on written by raising passing grade. Forth, it needs to guard against social and financial loss by abolishing current indoor test with electronic grading way. It can also cut unnecessary driver's license test procedure and simplify it. The electronic scoring system of indoor test doesn't cultivate essential or actual skill for driving, but knack for getting high score with learning by rote. This obstructs would-be driver in achieving good driving habits. Moreover, maintenance or management services of indoor test cost a lot and cause big financial loss. To solve this problem, it needs to abolish indoor test quickly and establish effective driving license test system. Like this, by abolishing indoor test, problems of management on driving school and driver's license test hall can be solved. Furthermore, by designating regular hours of indoor education before road test, or changing these education to paid-in lesson, indoor test hall can changed as indoor education hall. Fifth, improvements for managing way of current road test education and evaluating way is urgently called for. Current road test education is just driving over again the reserved course. By repeating practice, the ratio of successful applicant may be raised. But it is no longer qualified to serve and cultivate the actual or essential skill for driving, its main purpose. Also there are lots of overlapping and not worth real driving items in road test. Due to the lack of the fairness and professionalism of road test examination' supervisor and examinator, it is in a critical condition to keep the public trust on evaluation of road test. To resolve these problems, we customize the road test evaluation items for real first. And by strengthening evaluation items, we should let people know that just learning by rote can't bet passing the test. To sustain the fairness and professionalism of road driving examination' supervisor and examinator, we should adopt a professional examinator system which is authorized by government agency, and select supervisor through careful verification. And after the selection, we should ive continuous education to the supervisors to possess special ability, also build a system which can maintain the fairness and professionalism of road test. Together with this, we can secure the fairness of road test with testing vehicles with up-to-date and recording equipment. It also can make the best use as countermove when there is public petitions. We should have improvements for actual condition and problem of driver's license test system in Korea and raise the standard of driving to developed country‘s level. With these, we should be careful and try not to happen car accidents by wrong driving habits. This study is about the problem and improvements of driver's license test system in Korea. Especially, the study focuses on draw the problems and improvements of regular license for 1 and 2nd types of vehicle. However, in spite of the fact that education for ex license holder and management of moto cycles emerge as serious social issue, we didn't research on them. If that were to occur, the range of study extends too broad and it cause digression from the subject. Henceforth, we hope that studies on these field would be active and improve driver's license test system in general. This is supposed to bring the developed traffic culture and we do look for it.

운전면허시험이 교통안전에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구

There have been disputable arguments since the amended system for the drivers license test were legislated and implemented. Before the amendment, those who intend to obtain a drivers license need to register a private driving school to practice an “on-site skill test” which is only available at the private driving schools in addition to an “on-the-road test.” In the amended system, the two separate tests (on-site test and on-the-road test) were merged to a more extended on-the-road-test. As a result, the overall procedure has been substantially simplified, resulting in the reduction of the total costs of obtaining a drivers license. However, such execution has been blamed for “over-simplification” of the procedure that overlooks the essential practice and knowledge of which the drivers should be aware. Thus, this study aims to systematically evaluate how the newly implemented drivers license test has contributed to the road-traffic safety. Three separate evaluation methods; Simple before and after study (BAS); Cross-tabulation method; and Survival analysis, were employed in this study. A series of case studies for the obtainers of the drivers license before and after the amended laws, who have been involved with traffic accidents and violation were conducted based on the simple BAS. Subsequently, results were statistically confirmed using the cross-tabulation method based on chi-square() distribution. Afterwards, no-accident and no-violation periods were evaluated based on the survival analysis method. The present study shows that under the amended system, the number of the drivers license obtainers has increased up to 21.5 %, resulting from the substantially simplified procedure. It can be also shown that the amended system contributes to decrease accidents caused by the new drivers(decreased 18.3% in the overall accidents by the new drivers during decreased 8.6% by all drivers). However, the no-accident and no-violation periods which are intervals until the involvement of the first accident and violation of the traffic laws, have been shortened. Such results partly support the arguments raised by those who claim the oversimplified procedure under the amended system. Especially, the decrement of the new drivers’ accidents by self-inducing, distracted driving, and the nasty weather(e.g. rain and fog) is lower than that of their overall accidents. And the accidents in tunnels and at junctions and crossings where the traffic flow changes caused by the new drivers are increased or immaterially decreased. It is due to the insufficient education of traffic safety, directly associated with the over-simplification. Despite the numerous positive aspects of the amended system (laws) for the drivers license test, there are some issues that need to be resolved. Based on the results of the present study, some suggestions made are summarized as follows. First, the education of the road-traffic safety needs to be intensified. In the curriculum of elementary, middle and high schools, some components of the road-traffic safety need to be newly included by the law. Foreign applicants who do not have access to such education are then required to register private driving schools to take courses for the road-traffic safety. For current drivers, before the renewal of their drivers license, they can be required to acquaint with new traffic rules and laws. Second, the improvement of the written examination for the drivers license test is suggested. Question pool needs to be extended, covering more diverse situations that the drivers may encounter during the actual driving. On the other hand, some questions which can be tested during the on-the-road test needs to be removed. Furthermore, some difficult situations e.g., driving through narrow roads and congested roads needs to be added to examine applicants’ driving capability. The introduction of a probation period after the drivers license is obtained is also suggested. On providing the evidence of no-violation and no-involvement of any sort of accidents, the actual drivers license can be issued. 본 연구는 자동차운전학원 위주로 구성되어 있던 자동차운전 교육시스템을 피교육자인 국민 위주로 전환시켜 운전교육에 대한 국민의 권리를 향상시키고 운전면허 취득비용을 절감시켰을 뿐 아니라 기능시험과 도로주행시험으로 중복되어 있던 운전면허시험을 도로주행시험으로 일원화하였다는 긍정적인 평가와 교통안전을 확보하여 교통사고로부터 국민의 생명과 재산을 지켜야 할 국가가 교통안전교육과 운전교육을 폐지․축소하고 운전면허시험을 완화하여 자신의 역할을 외면했다는 부정적 평가가 공존하고 있는 최근 개선된 운전면허시험제도에 대하여 개선된 제도가 교통안전에 기여했는지 여부를 공학적 분석을 통해 확인해 보고자 하였다. 연구방법은 운전면허시험 개선 전․후 운전면허 취득자, 그 취득자가 야기한 교통사고 및 교통법규위반 등의 자료를 수집하여 단순 전․후 비교(Simple BAS)와 Chi-square 교차분석을 이용하여 기초특성분석 및 통계적 검정을 실시하고 생존분석법을 이용하여 제도개선 후 신규 취득자의 무사고․무위반 기간을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 저부담․저비용의 교육제도와 다소 수월해진 운전면허시험제도로 인하여 제도개선 후 운전면허 신규 취득자는 21.5% 증가한 것으로 분석되었고, 교통사고는 제도개선 전․후 전체운전자 집단에서 8.6% 감소한 반면, 운전면허 신규 취득자 집단에서는 18.3% 감소하여 당초 우려와는 달리 운전면허시험제도의 개선이 교통사고를 감소시키는 결과를 가져왔으나 신규 취득자의 무사고․무위반 기간이 짧아지는 등 부정적 결과로 분석되는 등 운전면허시험제도의 개선이 교통안전에 기여했다고 보기에는 어려움이 있었다. 특히, 교통안전교육의 부재가 원인으로 분석되는 차량단독사고, 안전운전불이행 사고, 빗길․안개길 등 악천후 시 사고가 제도개선 후 운전면허 신규 취득자의 전체사고 감소율에 못 미치고, 미흡한 운전교육을 원인으로 이해할 수 있는 터널 안 사고, 횡단보도 및 교차로 부근 등 교통흐름이 변화되는 지점에서의 교통사고가 증가하거나 소폭 감소에 그치는 등 운전면허시험제도의 개선이 교통안전에 일정부분 영향을 미친 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서는 운전면허시험제도의 개선이 영향을 미친 교통안전분야를 보완하기 위하여 다음과 같이 정책을 제언하는 것으로 마무리 하였다. 첫째, 운전교육을 확대하고 강화할 것을 제언하였다. 사교육에 의존하고 있는 자동차 운전교육시스템에 초․중․고등학교에서의 공교육 체계를 도입하고 이를 이수하지 못한 외국인 등이 운전면허를 취득하기 위해서는 전문학원 등에서 일정시간 이상 교육을 받도록 의무화하는 방안을 검토하고, 기존 운전자에 대한 교육은 운전면허 적성검사 또는 갱신 시 법령․제도의 개선 및 교통운영의 변화 등에 운전자가 꼭 알아야 할 사항을 시청각 또는 유인물 등을 이용한 교육 방안을 제언하였다. 둘째, 운전면허시험제도의 보완을 제언하였다. 학과시험 문제의 다양성 및 변별력을 위하여 문제은행 수를 확대할 필요가 있고, 도로주행시험 과정에서 다둘 수 있는 장내 기능시험은 폐지하는 것이 바람직할 것이라고 제언하였다. 또한 도로주행시험에 과제에 초보운전자가 가장 어렵게 생각하는 비좁은 골목길 주행, 차량통행이 많은 복잡한 도로국간 및 고속주행이 가능한 구간에 대한 평가가 포함되어야 하고 운전면허시험에 모두 합격하면 초보운전면허증을 발급하고 일정기간동안 실제 운전하였다는 증명과 함께 교통사고와 주요 법규위반행위가 없는 경우 본 면허를 발급하는 방안을 제언하였다.

2010년과 2011년에 걸쳐 운전면허시험이 간소화된 이후, 취득 시간과 비용의 부담이 감소했다는 긍정적인 측면도 있었지만, 안전운전 능력 배양에 부족하고 변별력이 없어 교통안전에 미흡하다는 부정적인 견해가 많았다. 이에 2016.12.22. 시험의 난이도를 강화하는 방향으로 개선된 운전면허시험제도가 도입됐으며, 현재까지 여론은 긍정적이다. 시행 2년이 다 돼가는 시점에서, 본 연구는 개선된 운전면허시험제도가 교통안전 측면에서 어떤 효과가 있었으며 무엇이 유효했는지 살펴보고, 과거보다 나아진 점과 보완할 점을 찾고자 하였다. 본 연구는 크게 운전면허시험제도의 개관 및 해외 사례와 기존 연구를 비교하는 이론적 고찰과, 개선 전후 합격률 및 교통사고 등 통계자료 분석, 과거와 현재 양 시험을 모두 경험한 운전 경력자를 대상으로 한 체감도 조사 세 가지로 구성돼 있다. 문헌조사와 함께 빈도분석, 교차분석, 독립표본 t-검정을 활용하여 공학적으로 검토하였다. 연구결과, 초보운전자‧연습면허소지자의 교통사고는 동 기간 내 대부분의 지표에서 30% 이상 감소한 반면, 전체 운전자는 10% 전후에 그치는 등 전자에게서 감소세가 더 뚜렷하였다. 또한, 간소화 시절 연습면허를 취득하고 개선 이후 최종 운전면허를 취득한 자를 초보운전자 통계에서 배제하기 전과 후를 비교하면 배제 후에 급격한 감소를 보이는데, 이는 운전면허시험의 난이도 상승(합격률 하락)이 초보운전자의 교통사고 감소에 효과가 있었다고 추론할 수 있다. 합격률만을 고려했을 때 가장 큰 하락세를 보인 ‘장내기능시험’의 난이도 상승이 교통사고 감소에 가장 유효했다고 볼 수 있다. 新‧舊 시험에 대한 체감도 분석 결과, 현재 시험이 국가공인시험으로서 적정한 변별력을 갖췄다고 보여 지며, 학과시험의 체감 난이도는 상대적으로 점차 하락, 도로주행시험은 점차 상승한 것으로 나타난다. 현재 시험이 과거보다 실제 운전에 더 도움이 된다고 대다수 생각하나, 현재 시험에서 가장 개선이 필요한 점에 대해서도 실효성을 가장 우선으로 꼽았으며, 실효성 향상을 좌우하는 것은 ‘도로주행시험’이라 추론할 수 있었다. 공정성은 지속 상승하여 현재 상당 수준 만족하는 것으로 인식된다. 향후 운전면허시험제도 발전방안으로는 첫째, 운전면허시험제도 개선에 있어 다른 어떤 요소보다 ‘교통안전 제고’를 가장 우선시해야 하며, 둘째, 학과시험의 난이도를 지금보다 상향해야 한다. 셋째, 장내기능시험에 평행주차 항목 등을 보완해야 하며, 넷째, 실효성 향상을 위해 도로주행시험의 틀을 장기적으로 개선해야 한다. 교육 측면에서는 도로환경과 난이도에 따라 ‘단계별 커리큘럼’을 만들어야 하며, 현행 6시간 이상의 도로주행 의무교육시간도 늘려야 한다. 시험 측면에서는 노선 확대 및 대상 도로 다각화를 통해 실질적인 운전능력을 검증해야 하며, 상용화된 기술을 접목시켜 전자채점의 비율을 높여야 한다. 지금까지 논의한 내용들이 운전면허시험제도의 발전에 도움이 돼 교통안전 향상에 기여하기를 바란다.

본 연구는 최근 개정된 도로교통법에 따른 운전면허시험 중 기능시험 코스를 STISim Drive3(System Technology Inc Simulator Drive3)를 사용하여 구현하고, 기존의 시뮬레이터의 단점을 보완한 미니 버전을 개발하여 핸드컨트롤을 사용한 그룹과 일반페달을 사용한 그룹의 운전성능을 비교하는데 목적을 둔다. 연구는 대구대학교 장애인운전재활센터에서 실시하였으며, 개발한 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 실험을 진행하였다. 실험대상자는 운전면허를 모두 보유하고 있으며, 실험은 2일 동안 연속적으로 실시하며 1일 5회 지정된 코스를 주행하였다. 평가방법은 도로교통법에 명시되어있는 기능시험 채점 항목을 이용하여 평가하는 방법과 STISim 프로그램에서 얻을 수 있는 데이터로 분석하는 방법 2가지를 사용하여 평가하였다. 실험결과 기능시험점수와 평균주행시간, 평균속력을 통해서 기능코스 주행성능을 파악할 수 있었으며, 코스별 감점 원인을 파악할 수 있었다. 또 차선이탈횟수와 주행하는 차량 중심의 위치 값을 이용하여 조향성능을 분석할 수 있었고, 제동시간과 제동거리를 이용하여 제동성능을 분석할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 개발한 시뮬레이터를 이용한 운전능력평가 및 분석 결과 자동차운전면허 기능시험에 있어서 핸드컨트롤러를 사용하여도 훈련을 통한 적응이 이루어진다면 통과하는데 있어서 충분히 가능하다는 결과를 내릴 수 있다. In this study, we implemented a functional test course using the STISim Drive3 (System Technology Inc Simulator Drive3) during the driver 's license test according to the recently revised Road Traffic Act, developed a mini version that complements the disadvantages of the existing simulator, The purpose of this study is to compare the driving performance of a group with a general pedal.  The research was carried out by Daegu University Disabled Driving Rehabilitation Center and the experiment was conducted using the developed simulator. The experiment was carried out continuously for 2 days and 5 times a day on the designated course. The evaluation method was evaluated using two methods: evaluation using the functional test scoring items specified in the Road Traffic Act, and analysis using data obtained from the STISim program. As a result of the experiment, we were able to understand the performance of the course. In addition, the steering performance was analyzed and the braking performance was analyzed.  As a result of the evaluation and analysis of the driving ability using the simulator developed in this study, it can be concluded that it is possible to pass through the hand driver controller if the adaptation through the training is performed even if the hand controller is used.

The 20th century will be memorized more important era than any other era in human history. The 20th century will be enough to adorn human history because of break-out of the World War, collapse of Berlin's wall, and paradigm shift in the traditional governmental view etc. Governmental reforms in United Kingdom, NewZealand, Australia, Canada and America in the 1980's have spreaded to the world and these reforms leaded to paradigm shift in the view on governmental role. In Korea, political power in the early 1990's has focused on administrative reform, but the result have been appraised negatively. The purpose of this study is to examine the adoption process and current management of Agency in the British government and to suggest an effective management of Agency in Korea. The UK introduced executive agency firstly in 1988 under The Next Steps and has 142 executive agencies in such fields as national defence, health, prison, Ministry of national tax etc. now. Executive agency accounted for 77% of all permanent civil servants. They employ 356,150 permanent civil servants. The executive agency's output increases 3% every year. UK parliament appraised that this programme was the better successful than any other programme for tens of years. After UK's success, NewZealand, Australia and Canada etc. adopted this system. USA and Japan are propelling to introduce this system. Korea's international competition comes down under IMF after 1997. Under this condition Korea's international competition capacity ranked at 38 of 47 nations in 1999 according to IMD. Under this condition, the Korea government decided to introduce British style of executive agency in 1999. The recent government has introduced and practiced arm's length agency to increase quality of administrative service the end of 1999 year, with epochal improvement of governmental management organization and flexible management of budget. Executive agency is administrative organization which is given the administrative, financial control of right works which are reasonable to be managed with principle of competition beside keeping public, and is reasonable for management results. Executive Agency's organization and function can be accounted by Principal-Agent Theory and Bureau-Shaping Model. The result of survey shows that employee of organizations which will be transformed to agency have negative view on governmental policy. After examining the case of British executive, agency and survey, this paper proposes several conditions for the successful adoption of Agency system and short and long term managerial plans. In several conditions, First, a preceding classification of governmental function by job analysis, second, a completing systematic condition and finally the indispensability of active support of the competent Ministry. And in short term managerial plans, First, a developing the product index and fair appraisal index, second, a ensuring clarity in appointing the chief executive, third, a dividing clearly between authority and responsibility, forth, a building up the education and information to the employee and finally a granting high incentive to the high performancing agency. According to above all several conditions and short term managerial plans, in long term managerial plans, this paper suggests as follow First, a necessitating gradual and by stages in forwarding a plan, second, a considering hiving-off of agency in a point of long view and finally a striving to secure maintainable working capital. Because of domestic and foreign environmental difference between UK and Korea, it is necessary for us to continue our endeavor and concern to take root case of UK in Korea's environment. Therefore, after government examines synthetically and considers enough, government has to fix the executive agency on the basis of rational judgement.
