Abstract

Summary: Accidents at intersections where the traffic is regulated with traffic signals are an everyday occurrence despite the right of way being clearly and unequivocally determined by a traffic sign. The problem is further complicated when one of the two participants is moving at an illegal speed. Hence, the question arises, of whether speed of movement can be imposed as a factor in creating danger, or whether the dangerous situation is the result of not respecting the right of way. This paper will analyze the methodology of determining the danger threshold of intersection traffic accidents where traffic is regulated by traffic signals, and thus the procedure for determining dangerous traffic signals. In doing so, traffic situations at a four-way intersection will be covered, where both drivers maintain their direction of movement, and the driver who moves along the street with the right of way drives the vehicle at an illegal speed.
