C-ITS User Survey Result and Rent-a-Car Accident Analysis: Using Jeju C-ITS Demonstration Project Data

Abstract

To improve the intelligent transport system that collects and provides traffic information in one direction, the two-way communication based-cooperative intelligent transport system has introduced after the pilot project in Daejeon-Sejong. Currently, demonstration projects are on-going, and one of the first target sites of the demonstration project, Jeju Special SelfGoverning Province, is the third year. This study aims to analyze the effects of the project and is the primary study based on the analysis of rental car user survey and rental car company accident data. As a result, it was found that the most drivers followed the service information provided through the on-board unit to drive safely, and it was analyzed that rental car accidents were also lower than those of non-equipped vehicles. For the future research, the authors plan to conduct analysis of driver’s behaviors collected from the on-board unit.
