Road safety inspection as a tool for road safety management – the polish experience

Abstract

In Poland, road inspections were implemented in June 2014 on all national roads. Previously conducted traffic surveys mainly related to the technical condition of roads, signs and markings; other safety issues were overlooked. The main problem that occurs during inspection is an inspector’s subjective qualitative assessment which affects the classification of the sources of hazard on the road.. The paper presents an analysis of the variability of the qualitative assessments of defects on the road, classified by different teams of inspectors. On this basis, the guidelines were developed for the classification of risks based on the relationship between sources of hazard on the road and the personal and economic losses of road accidents. These relationships are quantified using mathematical models to simulate the impact of the variability of a set of sources of hazard on the effects of selected causes of road accidents on the sections of road network
