Traffic volume and weather conditions have a large influence on the number of accidents, therefore
during a change of season the number of accidents on the roads and streets of Lithuania also
changes. In summer and in autumn people use to spend much more time in the open air, they travel
more and the roads are crowded with two-wheelers (bicycles, motorcycles, mopeds) which are
infrequent in a cold period of the year. In the middle of autumn when weather becomes cold and
traffic conditions get worse the drivers are not yet accommodated to sudden changes in weather
conditions. All this increases accident risk.
In 2015 the largest amount of accidents occurred in summer and autumn – 897 and 878 accidents,
respectively, largest amount of people killed were in autumn and winter – 75 and 72 fatalities,
respectively.

In 2015, 938 pedestrian-involved accidents occurred where 81 pedestrians were killed and 955 were
injured. The number of pedestrian-involved accidents was obviously higher in November and
December. In this time of year the worsened weather and traffic conditions, a long and dark time of
the day negatively affect safety of the most sensitive road users – pedestrians.
In order to avoid pedestrian-involved accidents both the pedestrians and the vehicle drivers should
be more responsible. Pedestrians should carry reflectors, flashlights or other reflecting elements,
should use pedestrian paths, if there are no – road shoulders, should cross a road or street only being
confident that this is safe! The drivers should be more attentive, should take into consideration
weather and traffic conditions and should choose safe speed in order to timely stop the vehicle.

Injured in dark time of
day
2015
In, 2015, the number of pedestrian injuries in a light time of the day was more than twice as much
as in a dark time of the day. However, the number of the killed in a dark time of the day was almost
three times higher than in a light time of the day.
In a light time of the day a large influence on the amount of accidents is made by traffic volume
which in the daytime is higher than at night, therefore, more accidents occur in the daytime. In a
dark time of the day the largest influence on traffic safety is made by visibility. In the dark it is
more difficult for the driver to catch sight of pedestrian.
A pedestrian wearing a reflector, a waistcoat or other clothes with reflecting elements can be
noticed at a distance of 300 m, and without reflecting elements – only at a distance of 100 m from
the vehicle with the high beams turned on. When the vehicle travels with the low beams turned on a
pedestrian with reflecting elements can be noticed at a distance of 150 m, without them – at a
distance of only 50 m.

In 2015, the motorcycle drivers with less than 2 years driving experience were those who most
often got involved into the accidents. Motorcycle is a less safe and more difficult to control vehicle
than a car, thus, accident severity is especially dependent on the driving experience.

Though the number of accidents and their victims in the built-up areas is more than twice as much
as on rural roads, the number of people killed during road accidents is twice lower. Accident
severity is influenced by traffic volume and speeds. The built-up areas have a prevailing large
traffic volume and lower speeds than rural areas, thus, more accidents occur there, though their
consequences are less severe. In rural areas, vice versa, the traffic volume is not large, however,
high speeds prevail which cause severe accidents.

A proper speed is one of the most important driving conditions. With the increasing driving speed
the time of driver’s reaction decreases and the braking distance of vehicle increases. By exceeding
the speed limit the driver takes a risk of not only his life but also of other road users lives.
In 2015, by more than 10 km/h the speed limit was exceeded on main roads – by 16.42 % of the
drivers, on national roads – by 26 %, on regional roads – by 17.45 % of the drivers. Speeding and
inobservance of safe speed is one of the main causes of road accidents.

The largest number of road accidents and victims in 2015 was recorded on the main road A1
Vilnius–Kaunas–Klaipėda. The main reason for a high accident number on this road is that it is the
longest main road in Lithuania. Also, in the road environment one can find settlements, bus stations,
pedestrians and bicyclists causing a high accident risk since main roads have the prevailing high
speeds.

BLACK SPOTS ON MAIN AND NATIONAL ROADS
Black spot – is a location of road where in a section of 500 meters during four years at least four
fatal or injury accidents took place and the accident indices (accident density and accident
coefficient1 have reached or exceeded the limit values). Such locations could usually be found at the
approaches to the bus stops, in at-grade intersections of limited visibility, on road sections with
insufficient visibility, vertical and horizontal curves of small radius, on road sections closely
overgrown with trees, i.e. on those road sections where, due certain elements of road and its
environment, there is a higher risk of accidents.
In 2016, 30 black spots were identified on main roads of Lithuania, 14 – on main roads, 14 – on
national roads and 2 – on regional roads. In 2016, compared to 2015, on national significance roads
9 new black spots were determined, 15 black spots remained the same (the length of the road
section has not changed), 6 black spots migrated (the length of the road section has changed).
In the black spots identified on the roads of national significance in the period 2012–2015 as much
as 153 fatal and injury accident occurred where 18 people were killed and 207 were injured.

ROAD ACCIDENTS CAUSED BY THE ROAD USERS UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL AND HAVING NO RIGHT TO DRIVE
8.1. Road accidents caused by the road users under the influence of alcohol
Drinking and driving are two incompatible things. Specialists affirm that even such a small bloodalcohol content as 0.1 % affects the driver’s brains. With the increasing alcohol concentration in the
blood the driver’s reaction and vision worsen. The driver makes a wrong evaluation of speed,
distance, and actions of other road users. In 2015, vehicle drivers under the influence of alcohol
caused 268 accidents where 382 people were injured and 16 people were killed.

8.2. Road accidents caused by the drivers having no right to drive
Another problem on the roads of Lithuania – the drivers having no right to drive. They can be
divided into two groups:

those having no right to drive any vehicle (not finished driving courses, or the right
to drive was taken away due to the earlier made offences),

those not meeting the category of the vehicle which he drove (e.g. the driver drove a
truck having the right to drive only a passenger car).
In 2015, through the fault of drivers having no right to drive 175 road accidents occurred where 18
people were killed and 241 were injured. 88.57% of the offenders had no right to drive any vehicle,
and 11.43 % – did not meet the vehicle category.

ROAD ACCIDENT LOSSES CAUSED FOR THE ECONOMY OF
LITHUANIA
Due to road accidents the Republic of Lithuania suffers economic losses every year. The damage of
road accidents directly depends on the number of road users killed and injured. Accident prices are
determined according to the Methodology for Calculating Accident Losses2. The amount of damage
incurred by the State varies depending on the level of the country’s economy and inflation.
In 2015, the damage to the economy of Lithuania due to 1 person killed during road accident
amounted to 609 135 €, due to the person injured –55 312 €. Due to the road accidents in 2015 the
Republic of Lithuania lost almost 355.71 million €.

Lithuania since 2011 seeks a new strategic objective defined in the National Traffic Safety
Development Program for 2011–2017. By improving the traffic safety situation, Lithuania makes
every effort to achieve that by the number of people killed on the roads per million inhabitants
Lithuania would be rated between the top 10 safest European Union countries (or 60 fatalities per 1
million inhabitants). In 2015, the number of people killed per 1 million inhabitants in Lithuania was
108
83. Analysis of the distribution of road deaths by road maintenance authorities showed that 72 % of
the total number of road victims were killed on the road sections under the supervision of
Lithuanian Road Administration of the Ministry of Transport and Communications of Lithuania
(LRA) and 28 % of the total number of road victims were killed on the roads supervised by the
municipalities. Compared to 2011, when the new strategic goal was set, the number of the killed on
the roads of LRA decreased by 18 %, on the roads and streets of municipalities – by 21 %.
