Summary/Abstract: Currently, road safety is one of the most important challenges in many ar-eas: not only in terms of transport and logistics but also as far as social and economicissues are concerned. The constantly increasing road traffic and the growing numberof transported goods and people are some of the challenges addressed through theactivities of many ministries, institutions and social organisations. Ensuring appropri-ate safety conditions, aimed at the protection of human health and life, is currentlyamong the most important objectives. Road traffic safety is therefore one of the mostimportant aspects of the policy of Poland and other members of the European Union.Hence, more new procedural solutions should be sought to reduce the negative impactof road traffic on society, the environment and the economy. In this situation, one ofthe most important tools are programmes improving the safety of road users. The ar-ticle presents the activities undertaken by Poland, as well as actions that result fromthe road safety strategy of the European Union
