Traffic Accident Analysis Division
The Traffic Accident Analysis Division conducts analysis and research on the course of a vehicle, center line invasion, collision speed, fleeing vehicle, vehicle defect, driver identification, interpretation of passenger movement in minor traffic accidents, and intentional traffic accidents. To identify the causes and facts of the traffic accidents, the type of damage and the final position of the accident vehicle, the traces and residues in the accident scene, clothes of the victims, the video recording device of the vehicle (black box), digital running recorder, etc. are examined and analyzed. For reconstruction of the accident, the accident interpretation program is used.
Interpretation of Traffic Accident
Interpretation of traffic accident dynamics, such as accident speed, human impact and injury, center line invasion, driver identification, crosswalk crash, etc. and accident reconstruction analysis and interpretation
Vehicle Safety
Analysis and interpretation of vehicle defects such as braking system or steering components, accident recording devices, and air, railway and ship accidents
Traffic Crime Analysis
Analysis of driver's intention and awareness of traffic insurance fraud, reproduction of traffic accident and interpretation of human behavior using PC-Crash and Madymo, analysis of a possibility of a minor traffic accident
Introduction of Laboratory
The Traffic Accident Analysis Division consists of an Accident Analysis Lab, Vehicle Safety Lab, and Traffic Crime Lab.
The Accident Analysis Lab is responsible for analysis and research such as dynamics analysis of an accident vehicle, identification of the fact whether there was a hit-and-run traffic accident, including the impact between a vehicle and a pedestrian and run-over injury, vehicle-to-vehicle (vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle) mutual impact, traffic accident related to clothing, etc.
- Interpretation of Dynamics
- Center line invasion: collision point, collision posture, collision speed
- Accident speed: skid marks, yaw mark, momentum-energy conservation, experimental formula, theoretical formula
- Driver identification: occupant’s deviation, occupant’s location
- Damaged vehicle speed: accident speed analysis for the damaged vehicle based on the experiment and theory
- Crosswalk crash: vehicle-to-person crash point, crosswalk shock

The Vehicle/Automotive Safety/Defect Lab performs analysis and research such as vehicle defects, analysis and interpretation of accident recording devices, air accidents, railway accidents, and ship accidents.
- Vehicle Defect
- Analysis on sudden unintended acceleration accident: sudden unintended acceleration, sudden acceleration, etc.
- Analysis on chassis system accident: braking device, steering device, suspension system, etc.

Accident Interpretation
The Traffic Crime Lab is responsible for the analysis of accidents related to insurance crimes. The laboratory carries out motion analysis for vehicles and persons using the PC-Crash and Madymo programs, which are traffic accident interpretation programs.
- Insurance crimes are divided into a soft crime and hard crime according to the level and intention of criminality.
- It is a general pattern that a soft crime is not intentional and its criminality is weak, but it claims excessive medical expenses by exaggerating symptoms even in the case of a minor traffic accident or receives the insurance benefit more than the proper level by long-term hospitalization.
- Hard crime is intentional and intelligent with strong criminality and recently has a tendency to be associated with violent crimes or to evolve systematically.
Major Services
- To examine vehicle-to-vehicle mutual impacts, the road clearance of the damage on the accident-related vehicle and the shape and attachment (paint, resin, etc.) are compared.
- For the impact on a pedestrian and run-over injury, the deformation and damage by human body impact in the front and the bottom of the vehicle and whether clothing traces and attached fibers and victims' blood marks are detected are compared and analyzed.
- In addition, a vehicle model is identified by examining whether there are traces related to the traffic accident, such as car paint on clothing and shoes, tire patterns, damage traces, etc., and pieces of headlight left behind at the accident site, plastic pieces, etc.

- Soft Crime
Soft crime is generally classified as ‘minor damage analysis,' and analysis is performed using the PC-Crash and Madymo programs for each type of accident.
- Vehicle-to-Vehicle: Analysis on the motion change and impact force of a vehicle occupant
- Vehicle-to-Person: Analysis on the motion change and impact force of a pedestrian due to crash with a vehicle
- Single vehicle: Analysis on the motion change of a vehicle occupants in single vehicle accidents (sudden braking, etc.)
- Hard Crime
Hard crime is generally classified as 'insurance fraud or insurance crime,’ and analysis is performed on the nature of the accident and the aggressiveness of accident avoidance.
- Analysis on intentionality and damage exaggeration of the driver
- Accident reconstruction
- Driver identification
