Abstract: Traffic accidents are unexpected and unpleasant cases on the road, which often have consequences of damage to cars, people’s injuries and in more severe cases lead to death. These events occur for various reasons and can be the result of factors such as high speed, disregard for traffic signals, alcohol, unused safety belt, technical vehicle problems, bad weather conditions and dangerous drivers’ behavior. The consequences of traffic accidents can be very serious, including serious physical injuries, material damage to the vehicle, and in some cases loss of life. Some of the preventive measures to reduce the risk of traffic accidents include the respect for traffic rules, use of seat belts, non-consumption of alcohol at the time of driving, car maintenance, education and information. Road safety is a common challenge that requires cooperation and dedication from drivers, road authorities and the community in general. This challenge is faced by law enforcement institutions to perform the tasks and obligations deriving from the legislation in terms of discouraging legal violations by traffic participants. Therefore, this paper is intended for the discovery and interpretation of any stagnation or negligence that can lead to the encouragement of traffic participants to neglect traffic rules and laws. The analysis of this manuscript is accompanied with statistics, tables and graphs from 116 cases from a population of about 150,000 inhabitants.
