Falling accident risk in Poland.
PublikacjaFor the last few years we observe optimistic tendencies in traffic risk development in Poland - the number of fatalities decreases about 10% per year, bringing Poland closer to European Union standards. Nevertheless in 2001 we observed the unexpected, and bigger than forecasted, fatality reduction. The reason was the economic downturn suffered across the country, resulting in reduced demand for transportation. The danger lies in...

The Effects of Roadside Hazards on Road Accident Severity
PublikacjaThe risk of becoming involved in an accident emerges when elements of the transport system do not operate properly (man – vehicle – road – roadside). The road, its traffic layout andsafety equipment have a critical impact on road user safety. This gives infrastructural work a priority in road safety strategies and programmes. Run-off-road accidents continue to be one of the biggest problems of road safety with consequences including...

Phospholipids as potential prevention factor in carcinogenesis
PublikacjaPhospholipids are a group of complex lipids, which can be used in cancer chemoprevention. Glicerophospholipids are composed of fatty acids esterified to a glycerol backbone, a phosphate group and a hydrophilic residue such as: cho- line, ethanoloamine, serine or inositol. In the sn-2 position of glicerophospholipid usually there are unsaturated fatty acids, i.e. linolenic acid, while in the sn-1 position more typi- cal are saturated...

Environmental Implications of Oil Spills from Shipping Accidents
PublikacjaWzrost znaczenia ropy naftowej w XX wieku i w związku z tym, zwiększenie się światowej floty tankowców zwróciły uwagę na negatywne skutki transportu morskiego. Katastrofy z udziałem tankowców pokazały, jak dramatyczne w skutkach mogą być wycieki produktów ropopochodnych z uszkodzonych lub zatopionych jednostek. Skutki wycieku ropy na morzu zależą od wielu czynników, takich jak parametry fizyko-chemiczne paliwa, charakterystyka...

Does the Use of Cell Phones and Headphones at the Signalised Pedestrian Crossings Increase the Risk of Accident?
PublikacjaReduction of the number of fatalities among pedestrians remains a topical issue in Poland. For many years, this percentage has remained at around 30% of all those who were killed on the road. At the same time, there is an increase in the use of electronic devices by pedestrians and cyclists that may affect their perception when crossing the road. This can lead to traffic accidents. In order to investigate the problem, field studies...

Hazardous material-related propagation of the effects of train accidents in the subgrade
PublikacjaA large part of the transport of hazardous materials is carried out by rail. Therefore, the security of these transports is becoming increasingly important. Every catastrophe involving dangerous materials has a negative impact on the participants of the incident and the surrounding environment, because its range is generally not local. It follows that in the event of a catastrophe, its effects should be minimized and remediation...
