Abstract

Vehicle congestion and high risk of accidents result in disappointment of many drivers and public transport users, causing psychological tension and increasing the accident rate. The accident rate is one of key indicators that help measuring processes of the transport system and its development. With the help of various road safety solutions, the modern world aims to ensure safe transportation and achieve reduction in the number of traffic accidents. Lithuania is focusing on these issues as well. Reduction in the number of traffic accidents requires implementation of the national road traffic safety policy. Traffic safety on the roads of national significance in Lithuania is one of the most important priorities. The success of reducing the number of victims in road accidents lies in mutual understanding, respect, cultured behaviour, closer cooperation between traffic members, as well as installation of engineering safety measures and application of advanced technologies. In order to properly evaluate the impact of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) on traffic safety, the article presents a comprehensive statistical analysis on traffic accidents, ITS applications on Lithuanian roads, measures to minimize accident levels by deploying Intelligent transport systems.
