Abstract

There is a worldwide trend of increasing number of vehicles being newly introduced on an annual basis. On the road, there are great numbers of drivers with low discipline, aggressive driving habits and non-compliance with basic principles of responsible traffic behavior. As a consequence, the number of traffic accidents is rising, and so do their repercussions.

There are more than 350 people, who annually die as victims of transport accidents in Slovakia. In addition, there is even larger number of injured which is alarming. Financial and other costs of transport accidents are estimated at the level of several billions of Euros annually.

In our article, we would like to outline an analysis of the transport accidents in Slovakia as well as we would want to show telematic applications, which lead to decreasing the number of transport accidents.
