The Polish organisation "Road and Safety "(Droga i Bezpieczenstwo) was created in 1998 and aims at making Polish roads safer through activities targeted at both politicians and the wider public. Cooperating closely with the public authorities dealing with this issue, "Road and Safety" disseminates information and findings of scientific research that are carried out both in Poland and abroad, and actively increases public awareness. Its members include more than 200 experts, associates and friends.
