Speeding is the most frequent behavior among traffic violation behaviors in South Korea. However, about 98% of speeding violators pay their traffic fines without demerit points and the effect of punishments is limited. The purpose of this study is to analyze the deterrent effect of the disposition of traffic fines on speeding violations and to establish countermeasures for traffic safety improvement. The descriptive statistics on data used in this study consists of driver license acquisition, traffic fine, and accident data provided by the Korean National Police Agency. Based on the data, the standard of the violator was suggested and the deterrent effects of disposition of traffic fines on speeding violations were analyzed. The Cox proportional hazards analysis was carried out to investigate behavior of habitual violators. An analysis of the relationship between speeding and accidents revealed that the drivers' speeding violation had an effect on the accident.
