Abstract

Prometni znakovi predstavljaju dio sustava prometne signalizacije, a glavna funkcija im je pravovremeno pružiti informacije sudionicima u cestovnom prometu. S ciljem što bržeg i jednostavnijeg identificiranja i prepoznavanja značenja, prometni znakovi su u većini europskih zemalja u određenoj mjeri standardizirani. To se načelo standardiziranosti ponajviše odnosi na prometne znakove opasnosti, izričitih naredbi i obavijesti, dok su znakovi obavijesti za vođenje prometa nestandardizirani, odnosno razlikuju se u određenoj mjeri od države do države. S obzirom na navedeno, osnovna svrha rada je utvrditi postojeće razlike u izgledu znakova obavijesti za vođenje prometa unutar država Europske unije. Cilj rada je utvrditi način na koji vozači prepoznaju kategoriju ceste ovisno o boji znaka za vođenje prometa. Na temelju izrađene online ankete, analizirat će se razumijevanje znakova obavijesti za vođenje prometa od strane internacionalnih i domaćih vozača. Krajnji cilj diplomskog rada je definirati preporuke za postizanje veće standardiziranosti znakova za vođenje prometa na području Europske unije.

Abstract (english)

Traffic signs are part of the overall road signaling system, and their main function is to provide necessary information timely to the road users. In order to identify and recognize meanings as quickly and easily as possible, traffic signs have been standardized to some extent in most European countries. This principle of standardization mostly refers to traffic warning signs, prohibitory and informatory signs, while directional traffic signs are non-standardized, and they differ to some extent from country to country. Considering the stated, the main purpose of this thesis is to identify the existing differences in the appearance of directional traffic signs within the countries of the European Union. The aim of this thesis is to determine the way in which drivers recognize a road category depending on the colour of the directional traffic sign. Based on the online questionnaire, the understanding of directional traffic signs by international and domestic drivers will be analysed. The final goal of the thesis is to define recommendations for achieving greater standardization of directional traffic signs in the European Union.
