Abstract

The aim of the paper is to show how research in road safety and especially the driver behaviour can be clarified by social science theories and data. To make this approach more obvious and clear the three following assumptions are made: (1) driving a car is (in part) a social activity (2) road safety is (in part) a social fact of life (3) a road accident is (in part) a social event.
