Relevance. Most of the victims of road accidents die prior to the arrival of medical staff, therefore, providing first aid to injured people in the first minutes after receiving injuries is very important for saving human life and health. Timely and skillful provision of first aid to victims of road accidents prevents further deterioration of the state of the human body and can positively affect the entire process of its further treatment and rehabilitation.Aim of study. To characterize the delivery of first aid to victims of road traffic accidents at the present stage and to outline possible ways for its improvement.Material and methods. To achieve this goal, an analysis was made of the results of domestic and foreign scientific research and regulatory legal acts on the issue of providing first aid to victims of road accidents. The literature search was carried out in specialized scientific search engines eLibrary, PubMed, Scopus using the keywords: first aid, prehospital stage, road traffic injuries, road traffic accidents. For the analysis, scientific articles published between 1980 and 2020 were selected. Resources with outdated or inaccurate information were excluded, some scientific papers were found by links to articles. The state of the problem of providing first aid to victims of road traffic injuries, for the most part, reflects scientific publications over the past ten years.

As a result of the increase in the number of vehicles traveling on Polish roads, the state of security has changed significantly in recent years. The risk of a collision or traffic accident has increased as a result of increased traffic. Police statistics show that one of the participants in the collision are people who are cycling. In court practice, when dealing with cases relating to road accidents involving bicycles, it is often necessary to determine the behavior of the driver at the time before the event occurred. For this purpose, knowledge about the braking distance achieved or the braking time of the bicycle can be useful. The article presents the results of testing the braking process of various types of brake systems and bicycles.

The article is devoted to the study of the implementation of the global goals of the Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011–2020 in Ukraine. It is stated that the precondition for the adoption of the UN General Assembly resolution № 64/2551, which proclaimed the Decade, was that according to the analysis, almost 1.3 million people are victims of road accidents every year, and its goal is to reduce mortality from Accidents by 50 percent by 2020. The key elements of the activities of national and local government bodies proposed by the Global Plan for the Decade have been identified. An analysis of the dynamics of road traffic injuries in Ukraine for 2010–2020. The influence of the measures introduced by the state on the state of road traffic injuries is investigated and the real indicators of mortality and injuries on the highways of Ukraine are determined. It is established that the mortality rate from road accidents in Ukraine during the Decade decreased by 27.4 %, and during the implementation of the Strategy to increase road safety in Ukraine until 2020 managed to reduce mortality on Ukrainian roads by only 11.5 %. The ambitious goal of the State Program to increase the level of road safety in Ukraine for the period up to 2020 – reducing the number of deaths due to road accidents to 4 people per 100 thousand population – also failed to be achieved. Given the steady decline in the population of Ukraine, this figure is 11.7 deaths in road accidents per 100 thousand population in 2020. It is proved that the measures taken do not fully correspond to the content of strategic decisions taken at the international level. The results of the state initiatives introduced in Ukraine, although outlined the tendency to stabilize road traffic injuries, did not provide even the average European level of dynamics of reducing accidents on highways. The Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011–2020 and the goals of sustainable development, apparently significantly influenced countries that take measures, so they need to be continued until 2030 to maintain the current level of awareness.

The article substantiates the necessity of obligatory consideration of criminological information on the consequences of motor crimes in order to increase the effectiveness of criminological and criminal legal policies. Criminologically relevant information on the consequences of motor vehicle crime is characterized by its incompleteness and fragmentation, without giving an idea of the true «price» of this variety for Ukrainian society. Through quantitative and qualitative analysis of the consequences of the phenomenon, the attention was paid to the scale and social danger of motor crime in modern conditions. Based on the analysis of statistical information of the courts and law enforcement agencies over the past five years, the level of road traffic injuries is outlined, the dynamics compared to the previous year is revealed, the characteristics of the victims of criminal offenses in the field of road safety and transport operation are specified, the size of the caused material and moral damage. In the criminogenic context, an analysis of the humanitarian (the number of dead and injured as a result of road accidents) and the socio-economic consequences of motorization in the country (the cost of human life and the total losses from road accidents). Existing approaches to determining the cost of human life and the overall level of losses to the state as a result of road accidents have been systematized. Taking into account the average life expectancy, macroeconomic indicators of the state development, the average age of those killed as a result of criminal violations of traffic safety rules or the operation of transport, and the number of victims, the total economic losses for the society for 2018 were determined. It has been stated that the practice of application by the courts of separate criminal law rules on crimes against traffic safety and operation of transport does not correlate with the declared Criminal Code of Ukraine for the purpose of punishment for the committed, as well as general and special prevention.

This article analyzes the relationship and influence of factors such as the population, the level of motorization, economic development, and the state of the state road network on the state of the risk of road accidents, including the level of mortality and road injuries, as well as the relevance of improving methods for assessing, managing and predicting the risk of accidents in road traffic. National indicators of the level of road deaths and injuries in different countries were studied. The relationship between road accidents and the level of motorization, income of the population, the state of the road network, and other indicators were revealed. The urgency of the problem of road accidents and the organization of measures to reduce the level of road accidents is emphasized. It also takes into account the special importance of forming conceptually new approaches to the task of improving the efficiency of public administration in the field of organization and maintenance of road traffic through the implementation of the Concept of Road Safety in the Republic of Uzbekistan for the period 2018-2022, which includes the following main directions: further improvement of the regulatory framework in the field of road safety, including significant strengthening of responsibility for gross violations of traffic rules; comprehensive improvement of road infrastructure, improving the quality of roads, creating reliable conditions for the safe movement of vehicles; improving the legal culture, the necessary knowledge, and skills of road users, strengthening their discipline.

Problem setting. At present, road traffic is one of the main elements of modern states. Using different types of vehicles, people have the opportunity to move faster, do freight, thereby facilitating their work in all areas of activity. This contributes to the development of economic activity, social activity and road infrastructure, but at the same time there are a number of negative consequences associated with traffic injuries, economic and social damage caused by road accidents. Today, about 7,000 people die in road accidents each year and nearly 4,000 are injured; every 12 minutes there is a car accident; almost every 1.5 hours a person dies. In Ukraine, the statistics of road accidents for the period from 01.01.2021 to 31.05.2021 amounted to 70774 – 22.2%. It is possible to reduce these indicators under the condition of introduction of the state program of the correct design of roads, and also increase of administrative responsibility for violation of traffic rules. And what do we see when we look at the statistics of the last five years? And the fact that accident statistics are really scary, and is constantly growing. Law enforcement officers are constantly publishing regular collections of data on road accidents in the country. The tables are full of red numbers, the color of which indicates the deterioration of basic safety indicators. Target of research is a comprehensive scientific study of administrative liability for violations of traffic legislation, its features, as well as improvement by amending legal acts will positively affect the development of transport – road complex of Ukraine and contribute to strengthening road safety as a component of national security. The main purpose of the study is to lay the groundwork for administrative liability for road safety offenses on the basis of a comprehensive analysis of scientific sources, generalization of legal material and law enforcement practice. The object of this work is public relations, which are formed in the process of ensuring administrative liability for violations of legislation in the field of road safety in modern conditions. Analysis of recent researches and publications. Issues of road safety in different volumes are reflected in studies conducted by: O. Bandurka, T. George, D. Medvedev, Yu. Piroshkova and others. At the general level, the concept of “road safety” as a component of public safety was studied by A. Basov, В. Glushkov, M. Inshin, O. Copan and others. These scientists analyzed the problem of improving the administrative and legal responsibility of road safety and proposed to improve measures that will ensure the safety of all road users. However, the relevance of this topic is due to the constant updating of Ukrainian legislation, based on the provisions of which is the rule-making regulation of this area of public relations. Article`s main body. The article defines the features of administrative responsibility for violation of road safety. The author considers changes in the legislation regulating administrative responsibility in the field of road safety. The analysis of the number of road traffic accidents (RTA) and their consequences over the past five years was also carried out. The study of this problem is relevant, since the analysis of static data on the number of road accidents indicates a low level of traffic safety and a high accident rate on highways. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Based on the above, we can conclude that the current legislation in the field of administrative liability for violations of road safety is quite extensive and provides for various types of administrative penalties aimed at saving lives and reducing socially dangerous accidents. Also, the legislative definition of the term “traffic” is not provided either in the Code of Administrative Offenses or in the Law of Ukraine “On Road Traffic”. I propose to define and legislate the concept of “road safety” as a set of factors and mechanisms that regulate legal relations, establish responsibility, describe the typical mechanisms and rules of conduct of all road users in the state.
