Few problems appear in Additional driver training program which is held in Lithuania for novice drivers and drivers whose license was suspended in case of hard traffic violation:
- the practical driving lesson is ineffective in terms of educating safe driving
- legal collision: drivers with suspended license drive in public traffic during the lesson
- restrictions and risks of pandemy have set the limitations of traditional practical driving

The Real-time Monitoring with Artificial Intelligence Camera System aims to prevent traffic accidents, driver distraction, driver fatigue, in-cab discipline to eliminate risky behaviors, and wrong driving habits with technologic assistance.

The Road Safety Authority child car seat checking service - Check it Fits was launched on a national, full-time basis in 2013. Since then, the service has grown in popularity and trust among the public, and as a result, has checked over 50,000 child car seats and visited over 1,100 locations all over Ireland.

In a study carried out by the RSA in 2016, of over 5,000 car seat checks, performed at the RSA Check it Fits service, it was found that as many as 4 out of 5 (80%) child car seats were incorrectly fitted.

Seat adjustments, carried out by the checker at the Check it Fits service, are categorised by severity. In the same study in 2016, it was found that of the seats that were incorrectly fitted, just over 80% were classified as a 'Major' adjustment eg the fitting being excessively loose to make it almost ineffective in the event of a crash or harsh braking.

The rest were classified as either a 'Minor' adjustment, 'Incompatible' (with child or car), 'Condemned' (not fit for purpose). Although some adjustments were classified as Minor (eg twisted seatbelt), even minor adjustments can make a big difference in how effectively the child is protected in the event of a crash.

The challenge was that we urgently needed to reduce this worrying trend, to protect children on our roads and to ensure they were travelling safely. Because we have new parents joining our target audience every day, perhaps with little or no reliable information, we decided to focus our efforts on reducing the level of 'Major' adjustments we were finding. We knew that the overall statistic of misuse would naturally reduce as a result but we needed to focus on the adjustment classifications to start with.

With this in mind, we had to develop a strategy that would inform and educate parents on child safety in cars from the very beginning of their journey through child car seat usage, from before their child is even born, until that child reaches 150cm and 36kg.

The Global Plan for the Decade of Action for Road Safety 2021-2030 (Global Plan), has the priorities to redefine multimodal transport and land plan use, to ensure safety and to equitable access to mobility while responding to the diverse needs and preferences of a population. Cycling and the use of cargo bikes are key players in the mobility landscape and the Safer Cycling Advocate Program (SCAP) promotes cycling and cargo bike use as a safe alternative and modal shift. Cargo bikes are being considered a rising star in urban light mobility since they are capable of solving family (shopping or children) or work (from deliveries to transporting a craftsman's tools) tasks while reducing the impact on the environment. For this reason, the European Union has also launched a programme for the dissemination of cargo bikes (called City changer cargo bike), based on the considerable development potential of this means of transport: up to 25% of all deliveries are made by cargo bikes, up to 25% of deliveries in cities, up to 50% of maintenance services, up to 77% of private journeys.

The Alliance first launched the Safer Cycling Advocate Program (SCAP) in 2019 in collaboration with the European Cycling Federation (ECF) and funding from FedEx. The SCAP promotes safer cycling practices by equipping advocates, organizations, and transport planners to implement steps towards safer and more sustainable active mobility.

The SCAP Guide – a resource compiling the best practices and experiences of Copenhagen (Denmark) and Amsterdam (Netherlands) – two cities with established cycling cultures. Early years of the program focused on the Baltic region, helping to bolster cycling uptake by giving community organizations an evidence base to improve safety for cyclists in Croatia, Slovenia, and Bosnia.

Year three has seen the project evolve and expand – supporting cities to get citizens onto bikes as a mode of sustainable transport. A small fleet of cargo bikes is being introduced to SCAP participating cities for shared public use in Bogota (Colombia), Bologna (Italy), Mexico City (Mexico), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Torun (Poland), and Valencia (Spain). Usage data from these bikes will inform cities’ plans as they encourage people to transition from private vehicles to zero-emissions bicycles as a practical solution that does not compromise the ability to carry small goods.

EU RISM Directive requires member states carry out proactive road safety inspections. While TII has a long history of developing standards and implementing safety programmes they were mainly based around patterns of historical collision data. This would be considered a retrospective approach. Since the adoption of the Road Infrastructure Safety Management (RISM) Directive, Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) has developed a new standard that sets out the processes around road safety inspections (RSI). The programmes, based on the standard, relies on a visual inspection along the route. Engineers versed in road design and with experience I road safety audits conduct these surveys. However, despite their expertise, early analysis of the data exposed some inconsistencies in how 'risk' as assigned to items noted in the RSI. The objective was to build in a way to achieve greater consistency around the proactive risk rating process. At one level the target audience were just the engineers involved in the inspection process but as we discussed the new insist from our data analysis it became obvious that other areas within our organisation could make use of our risk rating programme. Some of our results are now form part of a vehicle restrained course. See https://www.engineersireland.ie/listings/event/7353. In addition, TII have prepared a paper for the 2020 International Symposium on Highway Geometric Design (now postponed to 2022 due to COVID-19). This paper (https://www.tii.ie/technical-services/safety/road-safety/2020-ISHGD-Motorway-RSI-Ireland.pdf) discussed TII's proactive safety programme and the risk rating process on the entire motorway network in Ireland, circa 1,000 km, as we believed our work has a wider audience.

Olyan módszer létrehozása, amely a jelenlegi jármű- és közlekedésben részt vevő egyéb technikai eszközök azonnali bevonhatóságát teszi lehetővé, ugyanakkor képes az eszközök nélkül a forgalomban tartózkodó személyek, élőlények védelmére is.

Egyúttal biztos alapot kínálni ahhoz, hogy az innovatív járműfejlesztések sokkal eredményesebben és könnyebben csatlakozhassanak a rendszerhez, pótolva a hiányzó információs láncszemet, nevezetesen az egyének képességeinek ismeretét, amely nélkül az autonóm jármű megoldások vagy járműfejlesztések sokkal nehezebben és sokkal hosszabb idő alatt kivitelezhetőek.

Mindezeken felül egy olyan valós adatokra épülő térképrendszer megalkotása, amely minden olyan helyet tartalmaz, amelyen valaha ember vagy jármű jelen lehet.

We are faced with the problem of people's incredulity, they do not understand how actions that they carry out on a daily basis have to be carried out out of conviction, because they did it automatically and thought that this had no explanation, that it had to be done because otherwise it would have consequences, especially economic ones, due to the fines that could be imposed by the different police forces.
