[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Gwan-ju] The Korea Road Traffic Authority announced on the 2nd that its academic journal "Traffic Safety Research," published by the Authority, has been finally selected as a candidate for registration by the Korea Citation Index (KCI) of the National Research Foundation of Korea.
