Data oriented and supported measures to protect vulnerable road users by understanding behavioural aspects at different infrastructural sections is mandatory for professional and successful pro-active road safety work. Usual data collection within the road safety sector is provided by short-timed data collection by hand or police-initiated reports after crashes happened. For better results in research and infrastructure planning, much more data over longer timespans is needed to provide better understanding on traffic flow mechanics, human behaviour and infrastructural effects on both former topics.
With the Mobility Observation Box (MOB) an image sensor based solution to collect, measure and evaluate trajectory data that integrates seamless into traffic flows without interfering them was developed to overcome the data collection issues. MOB is able to collect data for up to 14 consecutive days on-site with machine learning based post-processing of relevant safety KPIs such as TTC and PET. The technology is battery-powered and can be mounted nearly everywhere due to its lightweight.

Apart from the bad road network and climatic conditions, other causes of road accidents on some of the roads have been linked to negligence of drivers and mechanical errors. other courses of road accidents include drink driving, faulty traffic light, faulty streetlight, highway attackers, fake engine oil, fake brake fluid, mechanical error, potholes. overloading, poor eyesight, Insufficient lighting conditions; unlit roads pose danger to motorists, pedestrians and cyclists, including threat to security.
A vehicle manufacturers document shows that, vehicles are equipped with 4 brakes to provide utmost safety on the roads, but our cheeks showed most drivers of commercial vehicles have disconnected 2 of these brakes, posing danger on the roads. Also, worn-out tyres affect the performance of vehicles.

The main purpose of the project is to unite communities and professionals from different areas of activity with the aim of reaffirming each person's right to safe journeys. The central message of this campaign is that every life matters on the road.

This initiative highlights the dangers of speeding with an aim of increasing compliance with speed limits, deterring motorists from driving at excessive or inappropriate speed and ultimately reducing the number of serious road traffic collisions this Christmas and New Year period in particular. To date, 156 people have lost their lives on Irish roads this year. This is 28 more than on this day last year. There has been some 1,172 serious collisions resulting in injury, often life altering.

Our annual appeal Minister of State at the Department of Transport, Ms. Hildegarde Naughton has announced that she intends to double the fine for failing to stop at a school warden sign. This will see the fine increase from €80 to €160. The announcement comes as the Road Safety Authority (RSA) and An Garda Síochána call on drivers to watch out for children as they return to school.

Kot prostovoljni gasilec, po poklicu pa zdravstveni reševalec sem se na avtocestah in hitrih cesta vse prepogosto srečal s težavnim pristopom preko zastojev. Leta 2013 sem bil v enoti gasilcev, ki se je prebijala na mesto dogodka, a zaradi nepravilno razvrščenih vozil nismo mogli napredovati preko zastoja, izstopil sem iz vozila in peš utiral pot gasilskemu tovornemu vozilu. Ker me je zanimalo, zakaj ljudje ne vedo, da se je v primeru zastojev potrebno pravilno razvrstiti, sem raziskal področje. Ugotovil sem, da državne in pristojne institucije niso veliko ozaveščale, zato sem se odločil za začetek akcije Ustvarimo Reševalni pas na avtocestah. Z objavo posnetkov težav, ki jih imamo, želimo pri populaciji vzbuditi zavedanje, da je pravilno razvrščanje izjemnega pomena za reševanje življenj. Slovenija je izrazito tranzitna država, zato se z zastoji na avtocestah srečujemo vsakodnevno, reševalni pas pa je potrebno ustvarjati v vsakem zastoju in ne le v zastojih ob izrednih dogodkih.

El Sello Asturiano de Movilidad Segura en la Empresa tiene por objetivo el reconocimiento de las organizaciones que trabajan en la integración de la seguridad laboral vial en su gestión preventiva. Su objetivo es conseguir que el máximo número de organizaciones se impliquen en el desarrollo de medidas de mejora que permitan minimizar la siniestralidad asociada a sus desplazamientos.
