Abstract
This article deals mainly with defining a way of monitoring traffic conflicts. This issue is only one part of a greater safety analysis, or risk determination process for a particular location. Based on the described procedures it is possible to apply the methodology also to more complicated nodes, such as level crossings, sections of towns, residential areas, or rural areas. After the survey and the collection of a necessary amount of transport and engineering data, the determination of a relative number for the 'almost- accident rate' (number of calculated vehicles for a selected time period and the number of traffic conflicts – so-called almost-accidents) may be calculated.
