The Impact of Intelligent Transport Systems on an Accident Rate of the Chosen Part of Road Communication Network in the Slovak Republic

Nowadays we record a large increase of individual automobile transport on roads. This situation results in still increasing intensity of traffic in cities and also outside cities. It leads to congestions and finally to traffic accidents. One of the possibilities of the number of traffic accidents reduce on the chosen part of communication network is implementation of ITS. On first class roads and highways where higher speed is permitted as on roads in cities is important to alert drivers of dangerous situations in advance to provide more time to decision making of drivers and adapt their driving to road conditions. In the paper we will discuss a model that compares two variants of the transport organisation. As a modelling tool we use software Aimsun which allows a microscopic simulation of real traffic conditions on any network.
