• (Regulatory exception) Temporarily allowing video recording containing personal information with cameras installed in self-driving vehicles in relation to the Personal Information Protection Act, and temporarily expanding the permitted operation area for demand-responsive passenger transport business in relation to the Passenger Transport Business Act
• (Target laws) Article 15 of the Personal Information Protection Act (Collection and Use of Personal Information) and Article 3 of the Passenger Transport Business Act (Types of Passenger Transport Business)

• Signs shall be installed and attached so that all information subjects, including pedestrians, can easily understand the operation time and location of self-driving buses, shooting range and purpose, and processing methods of captured images (Article 15 (1) and Article 25 of the Protection Act).

• We will comply with the protection principles and measures for safe management in accordance with the Personal Information Protection Act, and actively cooperate when requested by the Personal Information Committee to check whether this verification project is being faithfully implemented in the future.

② Allowance of regulatory special provisions related to the limited scope of demand-responsive passenger vehicle transportation business operators

• Among the 14 legal dongs that the DRT passes through, 11 dongs, including Bongsan-dong, are classified as public transportation secured areas, so it is impossible to operate the DRT including those areas under the current Passenger Vehicle Act.
•  Considering that the remaining three dong areas (Pojeong-dong, Seomun-ro 3-ga, and Seoseong-ro 1-ga) are blind areas for public transportation and that public transportation accessibility is poor on back roads such as Dongseong-ro alley, the need for empirical research was recognized and the original plan was revised. Accept
• As a side opinion, it is necessary to review coexistence measures to minimize conflict with existing transportation operators (taxi industry, etc.) during the empirical research process.
• In addition, since this project operates in a circular manner in urban areas with a large floating population, it is necessary to consider active promotion and incentives so that consumers can easily use the calling app.
• During the project period, measures are taken to ensure that passengers receive safe and convenient services by checking compliance with the compliance requirements (Appendix 4 of the Enforcement Rules) of transport operators and transport workers.
• Since it is operated in the form of autonomous driving, it is necessary to thoroughly establish safety measures such as deploying safety personnel and meet standards related to autonomous driving, such as the Self-Driving Car Act, in advance.
• Empirical operation performance (demand analysis by day of the week and time zone, average passenger waiting time, analysis of civil complaints, difficulties faced by transportation workers, win-win measures with standard transportation business operators, etc.) must be shared with our department on a semi-annual basis)
