Four classes identified quantified, first rural areas: (1). areas straight stretches related speed 70 km/h (n = 306); (2). high-speed 97); (3). built-up areas, low-speed type rear-end 289); (4). road junctions 380). Together, these point a variety opportunities develop ways working with Instead adopting general attempt counteract relationship between individual accidents, it is focus whole context its any resulting injuries.
