DEVELOPMENT POTENTIALS AND STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES OF INTELLIGENT TRANSPORT SYSTEMS IMPROVING ROAD SAFETY

Reducing the number of road accident victims is a declared purpose of the European Union. Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are able to contribute to this by warning and supporting the drivers, therefore improving road safety. The aim of our research was to analyze the safety aspects of ITS systems, structuring the solutions, analyzing and exploring the opportunities for development. Strategic objectives have been evaluated and relevant processes for achieving them have been summarized. The research efficiently contributes to the utilization of development potentials of ITS systems.
