Abstract

Abstract The article presents and assesses the shortcomings of the applicable provisions regarding the maintenance of the necessary distance behind the preceding vehicle in road traffic. We are exposed to accidents when using vehicles. The human factor contributes greatly to their occurrence. A problem analysis was carried out with proposed changes. The conclusions indicate the need for conducting training and clarification of the provisions in the applicable road traffic law. The introduction of new technical devices for determining the distance, in extreme situations, does not eliminate the danger of colliding with the preceding vehicle. In this respect, the regulations are imprecise, and the lack of knowledge of drivers is huge. The proposed actions relate to the area of active safety system of vehicles in road traffic.

Summary

Introduction

Road transport is an area where car use plays an important role. Citizens of European Union (EU) Member States have unrestricted opportunities to cross the Union’s borders. Drivers do not understand that by entering between two vehicles distant from each other by Smin, they create a very dangerous situation of increased risk of accident They do not know how the law regulates the issue of maintaining a minimum distance that does not cause offenses due to “cutting off other vehicles”. The analysis and assessment concerns provisions obliging the driver to maintain a sufficient distance (distance) behind the preceding vehicle in road traffic Among other things, it analyzed what results from applicable regulations. The subjects of the study are vehicle drivers, participating in traffic on public roads in EU countries and the applicable rules – regulations (which are part of the safety system) that regulate road traffic in EU member states They were based on the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic. The following questions can be formulated: can legal provisions contain unclear, vague, imprecise wording? If such formulations were included, should we accept or tolerate them? Are we obliged to eliminate them from existing legislation? Should imprecise or undefined legal provision be clarified or removed? Which level of irregularity is acceptable and which is not?
