Different aspects in the safety of road transport

Abstract

Research terminology regarding the security of civilians and transport security used in source literature refers to a number of conditions. In the course of an analysis, it was observed that the level of security of populations inhabiting a given country area depends on various negative factors, either generated by or resultant from conducted activities, including but not limited to dangers posed by road transport. The objective of the article is to frame a panorama of issues related to the negative influence of road transport-related threats. On the basis of collected empirical data and its interpretation in the light of adopted theoretical assumptions, the author will try to identify and explain the conditions (reasons), types, and directions of changes regarding road transport threat and also explain the state of road safety, road transport infrastructure, safety engineering in transport and psychology of driver of road vehicles. The objective of the article is also to frame a panorama of issues related to the negative influence of road transport-related threats on public safety. On the basis of collected empirical data and its interpretation in the light of adopted theoretical assumptions, the author will try to identify and explain the conditions (reasons), types, and directions of changes regarding road transport threats and present their negative impact on security of the population. It should also be noted that transport should be instrumental human needs, related to the implementation of specific tasks, its objectives and specific objectives.
