In this regard, the current paper aims to analyze the general and specific traits of the road risk on the National Road 7, in the Olt River gorge, over a significant time frame, namely 8 years, from 2011 to 2018.

This study presents the mechanisms of the generation of traumatic injuries and also analyses the manner of interpreting these mechanisms in the case of road accidents, both from the perspective of law enforcement and from the perspective of specialists in road transportation, who analyse and i…
An empirical analysis of the relation between infrastructure and road accidents
The concern for road safety in Europe is growing bigger. European Union by its means promote the aim of reducing the number of victims of traffic accidents by half in the period 2011-2020. In order to achieve this objective a lot of actions should be developed. One of our concern is the development of the infrastructure, mainly building motorways. Our research aims to study the relation between infrastructure – motorway versus highway and road accidents. Our findings show that is a great relationship between uses of motorways and reducing the number of accidents.
