The general trend in the development of the technosphere implies a constant increase in the volume of transport of dangerous goods by road. The combination of “dangerous cargo and vehicle” is potentially dangerous because it can pose additional risks to road users, as well as to the environment (nature and population). For this reason, it is necessary to conduct appropriate risk analyses for the transport of dangerous goods by road, which makes it possible to assess such risks.
