Injuries in road (road) traffic are a serious health and development problem. Nearly 1.2 million people worldwide are killed in traffic accidents. This is more than 2.1% of mortality. It also dies from the biggest causes of mortality such as malaria and tuberculosis. Millions of people are injured and often remain lifelong. About 85 percent of road traffic fatalities occur in low-or middle-income countries. The number of deaths or handicaps is expected to increase due to the expansion of motorization. The expected declining trend in the number of traffic accidents and the number of killed and injured persons has not been established in Republika Srpska. This is typical of countries that do not have stable and strong traffic safety systems. Therefore, it is necessary to strategically improve the capacity and integrity of individuals and institutions that implement measures and activities in order to reduce traffic distress.
