Abstract

To research the interaction between the elements of the traffic safety system “Traffic Participant – Vehicle – Road (Traffic Environment)” and the influencing factors, and to provide recommendations for the improvement of traffic safety in Lithuania. The following main problems were solved in the research: • to research the models applied for the analysis of traffic safety system; • to identify the key factors influencing the traffic safety system reliability; • to perform reaction tests of traffic participants, during which the driver’s reaction time in usual situations and in potentially dangerous or unforeseen situations is identified, i.e. while talking on a mobile phone, distractions, headlight dazzle at night, and other situations; • based on mathematical calculation methods and the tests performed, to identify the factors influencing the driver’s reaction time; • based on traffic accident data on certain main roads and by applying statistical mathematical packages, to identify the factors affecting the number of traffic accidents; • after analyzing the factors affecting the traffic safety system, to formulate substantiated trends for the improvement of traffic safety and to implement that traffic safety improvement means for these trends; • to assess the efficiency of traffic safety improvement means.
