Sažetak
One of the most effective ways to prevent traffic accidents is to identify and repair hazardous sites in the road transport network. In the Republic of Croatia from 2004 to 2016, the methodology for identifying hazardous sites based on a numerical definition was used, and in January 2017, a new methodology based on the statistical examination of each location of traffic accidents was adopted and it was fully aligned with international experience and recommendations. International experience shows that the most relevant results in identifying hazardous sites are achieved through an immediate overview of the location of traffic accidents on the ground. However, as about 5000 different traffic accidents occur on state roads on a yearly basis, it is clear that for objective reasons they can not all personally review, it is necessary, based on collected data on traffic accidents and traffic loads, to identify the locations of traffic accidents that pose a potentially dangerous places. For this purpose, this paper will outline the process of identifying potentially hazardous sites that need to be analyzed on-site in order to reach a final assessment of whether it is really a dangerous place where remedial measures can reduce the number of traffic accidents. This conceptualized process of identifying dangerous places allows for the cancellation of so-called " false hazardous sites that only occur periodically due to heavy traffic loads, and are not conditioned by road traffic-technical shortcomings.
