Analysis of Retroreflectivity of Paint and Plastic Road Markings on Croatian State Road D1

With the urbanization process constantly accelerating, road traffic safety becomes one of the biggest problems facing the society. Road traffic safety depends on the efforts of the entire society, through increased investment in road safety and traffic development of culture of all road users. Driving in the night and wet conditions reduces drivers’ visual perception which as a result has decreased road traffic safety. The most common ways of performing road markings are by using paint or plastic materials. This paper will analyze how two types of road markings on one section of the road can influence traffic safety. Research has been done in the period of 2 years with dynamic retroreflectometer on Croatian state road D1 on section Junction Zaprešić (A2) and shopping mall ‘’West Gate’’.
