Abstract

Rail crossings are very important elements in the field of land transport infrastructure, as they allow the combination of two different transport systems, whose mode of operation and management is subject to different regulations, transport performance and design solutions. Traffic accidents at railway crossings have become a relatively common negative phenomenon (meeting of road users with rail vehicles) with fatal consequences and extensive material damage. For this reason, level crossings are high-risk locations, with a high potential for an accident. The aim of the article is to present the results of the simulation and subsequent analysis of the accident of category A3 - collision of a train with a bus at a railway crossing and selected results from the realized computer simulation of the course of the pre-accident event and the predicted impacts of the modeled accident.
