Developed countries, especially ones with good geographic and
climatic characteristics for cycling, recognized long time ago the benefits of
using bicycle as a mean of transport, peculiarly by motivating passenger car
users towards the wider use of bicycle. Some of the most significant advantages
of cycling are health improving, emission and congestion reductions, mitigation
of problems with traffic noise and parking in central urban areas etc. Traffic
casualties are global world problem and cyclists are especially demoralized for
resolving the above mentioned problems because they are classified as
vulnerable road users. According to that, it is essential to take measures for
improving the level of cyclists safety in traffic, and thus to create conditions for
popularization of cycling. Besides phenomenological approach in traffic
accident investigation and reconstruction (spatial distribution, time
distribution, types of accidents, particular characteristics of traffic accidents,
etc....), etiological approach is more significant because of more detailed causes
and circumstances analyses of cyclists endangerment in traffic and results of
these analyses are basis for measures in traffic safety improvement. Traffic
accident reconstruction is the analysis of the occurring circumstances, but also
analysis of circumstances under which could be avoided. Expertise presents
investigation which is done by expert, so in traffic accident reconstruction it is
necessary to realize a lot of complex procedures in order to assess traffic
accident occurrence. Part of a time-distance analysis which is the most relevant
for defining the causes and circumstances of traffic accidents is avoidance
analysis.
