An installation of automated speed enforcement system(ASES) was known for traffic safety and accident preventive effects that traffic characteristics transmute by speed distribution stabilizing. This study is verified the variations of average speed, 85% speed, speed distribution and dispersion as traffic characteristics depend on enforcement system influences in the road. We tested selected 5 areas. By and large, it has a little differences depend on road geometric structure and traffic environment but that is not too much. After all, after automated speed enforcement system installed in all of test areas, average speed, 85% accumulated speed, speed distribution and dispersion characteristics were declined and equalized. The speed dispersion was smaller than before installed the ASES. The speed dispersion value of each case that is the limited speed has been 70Km/h, 80Km/h at flat and straight, 80Km/h at downhill and straight or downhill and left-curved area was 77.3%, 65.2%, 68.7% and 54.1%. Each of the data was declined. We could analyze that average speed distributed depletion factor was declined rapidly by 66.3% in test area.

The section speed enforcement system measures the starting instantaneous speed, the The section speed enforcement system measures the starting instantaneous speed, the ending instantaneous speed, and the section average speed, and imposes fines only for the portion that has been speeding the most. However, according to the Road Traffic Act, most of the systems are installed on highways, so existing research has been conducted on highway sections. In this study, it is expected that the installation of section speed enforcement systems on general national roads will be expanded according to the revision of related laws. ITS collection and operation data targeting the section speed enforcement system installed on National Road 3 Seongnam Icheon-ro was used to analyze traffic speed, standard deviation of traffic speed, and reduction in traffic accidents by dividing it into before installation, trial operation period, and after crackdown. As a result of the analysis, the traffic speed, standard deviation, and traffic accidents decreased by 13%, 25%, and 70%, respectively, after installation, confirming that the installation of the section speed enforcement system greatly contributed to the reduction of accidents.

The automatic speed enforcement system is expected to play an important role as intelligent transport system (ITS) or advanced franc management system (ATMS). It must be a reliable system checking the overspeedy vehicles automatically, while savine the police manpower and ensuring a safe traffic flow. In terms of traffic engineering, the automatic speed enforcement system may serve to improve driver's violent behaviors, facilitate the smooth and safe traffic flow and thereby, reduce the traffic accident. This study was aimed at analyzing the accident before and after installation of the automatic speed enforcement systems at the frequency, EPDO(equivalent property damage only) and accident cost, analyzing the effects of the automatic system on the traffic flow and accident. As a result, when we equip the automatic speed enforcement system on the downward slope section or after middle section comparing with whole section. We should consider the location of automatic speed enforcement system.

Since the introduction of 32 Automated Speed Enforcement System in Korea 1997, their application was expanded to the entire nation and, as of January 2008, there are 3,212 Automated Speed Enforcement System that are in operation. The existing method of evaluating the effects of the Automated Speed Enforcement System application is simple comparison of a year before and a year after the application. If the number of traffic accidents dramatically increased(or decreased) the year before the application compared to the numbers from years before that, then if the number decreased(or increased) after the Automated Speed Enforcement System application, it cannot be concluded that the change was caused by the Automated Speed Enforcement System application alone. Based on the 4-Step Before-After study, the method of evaluating the effect of an Automated Speed Enforcement System application was analyzed anew. At 205 locations where Automated Speed Enforcement System was applied in 2006, the existing evaluation stated a reduction of 19% in the number of traffic accidents, but when reanalyzed for the method suggested in this paper, the effect of the Automated Speed Enforcement System was found to be $27.4{\pm}3$, along with an error range of ${\pm}12.89%$ due to miscellaneous improvement.

According to the National Police Agency, point-to-point speed enforcement system is being installed and operated in 97 sections across the country. It is more effective than other enforcement systems in terms of stabilizing the traffic flow and inhibiting the kangaroo effect. But it is only 5.1% of the total enforcement systems. The National Police Agency is also aware that its operation ratio is very low and it is necessary to expand point-to-point speed enforcement system. Hence, this study aims to provide the expansion basis of the point-to-point speed enforcement operation through analysis of the quantitative effects and development the accident prediction model. Firstly, this study analyzed the effectiveness of point-to-point speed enforcement system. Naive before-after study and comparison group method(C-G Method) were used as methodologies of analyzing the effectiveness. The result of using the naive before-after study was significant. Total accidents, EPDOs and casualty crashes decreased by 42.15%, 70.64% and 45.30% respectively. And average speed and the ratio of exceeding speed limit decreased by 6.92% and 20.50%p respectively. Moreover, using the C-G method total accidents, EPDOs and casualty crashes decreased by 31.35%, 66.62% and 10.04% respectively. And average speed and the ratio of exceeding speed limit decreased by 3.49% and 56.65%p respectively. Secondly, this study developed a prediction model for the probability of casualty crash. It was dependant on factors of traffic volume, ratio of exceeding speed limit, ratio of heavy vehicle, ratio of curve section, and presence of point-to-point speed enforcement. Finally, this study selected the most danger sections to the major highway and evaluated proper installation sections to the recent installation section by applying the accident prediction model. The results of this study are expected to be useful in establishing the installation standards for the point-to-point speed enforcement system.

As various social problems occur due to increasing traffic accidents, the government has setup and executed strong safety policies. As a result, the number of traffic accidents and the death toll have been decreasing in recent years. However, the setup and execution of the various policies for reducing traffic accidents cost much, so it is necessary to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of each policy. In the present study, enforcement by means of an unmanned over-speed enforcement system, the enforcement effect of which was proven good compared to the cost required for traffic enforcement, is compared with enforcement by policemen. As a result of the comparison, the average speed was 82.66 km/h before the use of unmanned systems and policemen; the average speed with manned enforcement was 70.57 km/h; and the average speed with unmanned systems was 67.85 km/h. The speed limit violation rate was 65% before the use of unmanned systems and policemen; 32% with manned enforcement; and 15% with unmanned systems. Considering the kinds of vehicles, the average speed and violation rate were highest among private cars, then vans, and then trucks.. Considering lanes. The accident rate was estimated based on the above results, and the input cost-to-advantage was estimated. The annual cost-to-advantage was estimated by comparing the above estimated values with the conditions before the unmanned over-speed enforcement system. Subsequently, the enforcement by policemen showed a negative advantage of 76,130,590 won, and the enforcement by the unmanned system showed a positive advantage of 38,577,670 won.

A point based speed enforcement system(SES) has been widely used in roadways to reduce the operating speeds and potential traffic accidents. Recently, the needs for introudcing new SES using point-to-point speed measurement was presented, however, no practical guidelines or justification of the system was available. This study investigated the effectiveness of the current SES and introduction of the new SES through user interview survey method. Survey results showed that 33% of respondents were unsatisfactory to the current way of SES operation, which was 11% higher than satisfactory respondents, and about 70% of the respondents supported the introduction of point-to-point based SES operation. A majority of respondents preferred the straight roadway segment, bridge and tunnel, and curved roadway segment for a start application site with the segment length of 1-5 km long. Using these survey results, an introduction scheme was discussed in terms of legal bases, installation criteria, and operational guidelines.
