Road safety improvement in road traffic participant – vehicle – road – external environment system

. Improving road safety is a state-level task reflected in many regulatory documents of the Russian Federation, such as a federal law, federal target program, national project, etc. The systematic approach considered in the article is aimed at developing an effective approach and targeted actions in the field of ensuring road safety in road transport. The use of an integrated approach instead of disparate single actions will allow achieving the tasks set for the state to reduce the accident rate on the country’s roads.Materials and methods. Analytical methods based on analysis of links, flows, temporary analysis of events, methods of road traffic safety assessment based on detection of safety and accident factors, detection of accident concentration places, methods of probability theory and processing of research results, software-computing methods of information technologies.Results. A system of road infrastructure indicators has been developed in a complex application with the analytical methods and methods of the accident forecasting system, an information technology tool and systems – an electronic receiving organization for road safety to develop a system organization and manage the level of road safety in the road participant – vehicle – road – external environment system.Discussionand conclusions. The expediency of taking into account the mechanisms for achieving the results of the program-targeted approach and the direction of their implementation, the proven scientific results of studies of the concentration of road traffic accidents to improve the work of the state mechanism for ensuring road safety is substantiated.
