Highlights

The aim of the paper is to verify the main hypothesis H1 that financing public passenger transport from public funds is a significant tool to influence the number of passengers carried by individual automobile transport, and it can be a tool for influencing road safety in a particular territory
The road safety is currently a topical issue given the fact that an increase of transport performance still persists and infrastructure capacity is limited mainly in cities
Summary
Public passenger transport is currently recording declining performance and development across the Central and Eastern European regions This results in the increased financial constraint for public transport provision by public authorities. Even in regions with sufficient use of public transport, it is not possible to provide transport service without public support. In Central and Eastern Europe, the undesirable development arises when the decline in public transport use increases the number of persons using passenger cars. The aim of the paper is to verify the main hypothesis H1 that financing public passenger transport from public funds is a significant tool to influence the number of passengers carried by individual automobile transport, and it can be a tool for influencing road safety in a particular territory. The last part analyses possible impacts of financing public passenger transport on the road safety in relation to the specified hypothesis
