INTRODUCTION
Road traffic – complex and hazardous system
Some grim figures:
➦ 1.2 million victims yearly
➦ 50 million injuries yearly
➦ 3000 victims daily
➦ 500 of them children
➦ Increase of 65% in the next two decades
➦ 520 billion dollars worth of damages yearly – much more than global investments in traffic safety
Undeveloped countries are more plagued by this problem
Hope in technological advancement

INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS IN TRAFFIC CONTROL
Intelligent control in road traffic safety:
➦ A rising demand and support for intelligent traffic control in EU polls and surveys!
➦ 54% consider safety when choosing car
➦ 24% rank safety as top priorety
➦ 73% support of ABS
➦ 65% support of ESP
➦ A growing responsibility for local authorities to ensure traffic safety by means of introducing intelligent traffic control.

INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS IN TRAFFIC CONTROL
Intelligent control in road traffic safety in Macedonia:
➦ Center of Traffic Management and Control (2013 - )
➦ 30 crossroads
➦ Non-stop functioning
➦ Monitoring
➦ Traffic light timing, optical observation, vehicle sensing
➦ Effective control of traffic flow

CONCLUSION
➦ Road traffic safety is a problem on all levels, but it is the local governments which are in the best position to counteract the consequences of traffic fatalities, and therefore have the highest responsibility in the constant search for solutions for this problem.
➦ We gave a brief overlook of the tasks and duties of the municipalities and local governments in the fight to reduce the number of road traffic accidents and the severity of their effects.
➦ The need is evident for efficient cooperation and synchronization with other local and state institutions and bodies, and the implementation of a functional and capable intelligent system for traffic control and/or monitoring.
