Claim:
1. A system for artificially interlocking an automatic transmission, the apparatus comprising: an engine revolutions per minute (RPM) sensor configured to measure an engine RPM; a vehicle speed sensor configured to measure current vehicle speed; a pair of ultrasonic sensors configured to measure a relative velocity of a vehicle to a neighbor vehicle an angle measuring sensor configured to measure a degree of an angle variation of a steering wheel; an electronic control unit (ECU) configured to firstly determine whether an accelerator pedal is erroneously operated by monitoring sensing signals of the engine RPM sensor and the vehicle speed sensor, to secondarily determine whether the accelerator pedal is erroneously operated by using sensing signals of the ultrasonic sensors, and to thirdly determine whether the accelerator pedal is erroneously operated by monitoring a signal of the angle measuring sensor; and a transmission control unit (TCU) configured to perform an artificial interlock control of the automatic transmission when a determination signal, which informs that the accelerator pedal is erroneously operated, is received from the ECU.
