Abstract
EU experience clearly indicates that it is necessary to inform and motivate the public on road unsafety to undertake specific preventive efforts, as well as making road users feel responsible for the state of road safety and seek to improve this state gradually to protect their health and life. The implementation of the Warmia-Mazury Road Safety Observatory project will not only be an excellent addition to the activities carried out under the Warmia- Mazury GAMBIT programme. It will also be part of a long-term process adopted, implemented and perceived by the EU as a priority, which aims to reduce the external costs of transport, in particular the costs associated with accidents in road transport.
