socio-economic damage caused.

INTRODUCTION
The organization of traffic safety on roads is becoming one of the most important problems
today. The amount of damage caused by cars to the environment is increasing day by day, and
the most important thing is that many people are injured and lose their lives as a result of road
accidents. Despite a number of measures taken to prevent road accidents, their number cannot be
reduced. This makes it necessary for experts to take the problems of road safety very seriously.
To ensure traffic safety, it is necessary to take a scientific approach to it, analyze all its complex
processes. To do this, traffic safety specialists need to have knowledge of the main indicators of
traffic, how road conditions affect the movement of traffic flows, and how to manage traffic
through technical means of traffic flow management [1].
LITERATURE ANALYSIS AND METHODS
A number of educational literature and scientific sources serve as the main theoretical and
methodological basis for studying the processes of ensuring road safety, effectively organizing
traffic flow, and designing highways. In particular, the textbook by Q.H. Azizov entitled
“Fundamentals of organizing traffic safety” extensively covers such important aspects as modern
principles of organizing road traffic, behavior of traffic participants, methods of control using
technical means, technical condition of vehicles, and the role of the driver in traffic safety. It
describes practical measures for road safety based on advanced foreign experience and technical
achievements [6-7].
RESULTS
According to the World Health Organization, approximately 1.19 million people die in road
accidents every year. In Uzbekistan alone, in 2024, 9,364 road accidents occurred in our country,
resulting in 2,203 deaths.
Despite the positive work being done in our country to ensure road safety due to the growth of
motorization, the current situation requires us to improve our work in this area, study and
implement the best practices of foreign countries, and train qualified drivers to ensure road safety
[3].
While driving a vehicle, a driver must ensure the smooth movement of other vehicles on the road,
communicate with road users, and comply with traffic rules. Modernization and development of
road transport infrastructure is of great importance in ensuring road safety. Road traffic rules
include mandatory requirements applicable to all individuals and citizens and are aimed at

ensuring the safety and health of citizens.
According to the Department of Road Safety of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic
of Uzbekistan, during the first 12 months of 2023, 9,839 road accidents occurred in Uzbekistan,
in which 2,282 citizens died and about 9,209 were injured. During the last 12 months of 2024,
9,364 road accidents occurred, in which 2,203 citizens died and 8,901 citizens were injured to
varying degrees. Analysis shows that the main cause of road accidents that resulted in the deaths
of 2,203 citizens was 52.3% of drivers' gross violation of traffic rules [2].

When analyzing road traffic accidents in the Qoshtepa district, the number of road traffic
accidents in the district in 2024 compared to 2023 decreased by (54-43) -11 or -20.4 percent.
However, in some urban districts of the region, including Fergana city, the number of road traffic
accidents increased by (158-173) +15 or 9.5 percent. In Oltiariq district, the number of road
traffic accidents increased by (81-84) +3 or 3.7 percent. In Toshlok district, the number of road
traffic accidents increased by (69-73) +4 or 5.8 percent. In Jalaquduk district, the number of road
traffic accidents increased by (28-31) +3 or 10.7 percent [4].
DISCUSSION
Extensive organizational and practical work has been carried out in our country to improve the
road safety system. At the same time, despite the measures taken, the number of fatal road
accidents is still high, indicating the need for a fundamental reform of the road safety system.
In order to ensure the implementation of the Law of the Republic of Uzbekistan "On Road
Safety", as well as to further improve the Rules of the Road, prevent road accidents, control and
https://ijmri.de/index.php/jmsi
volume 4, issue 7, 2025
245
increase the effectiveness of road safety in accordance with the requirements of the 1968 Vienna
Convention on Road Traffic and advanced foreign experience, a number of laws have been
studied.
Establish a procedure according to which:
in populated areas, the speed of vehicles is allowed to exceed 60 kilometers per hour, on roads
around schools and preschool educational institutions - 30 kilometers per hour within a distance
of 300 meters, and in residential areas and adjacent areas (on land plots between residential
buildings) - 20 kilometers per hour.
In this regard, based on the resolution of the Republican Commission for Road Safety,
established by the Resolution of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan “On measures to
reliably ensure human safety on roads and sharply reduce fatalities” dated April 4, 2022 No. PQ-
190, the maximum speed of vehicles in the cities of Tashkent and Nukus and regional centers
with high traffic and densely populated areas may be set at 60 kilometers per hour:
Transportation of goods in passenger cars is allowed if the height of the cargo in the luggage
compartment installed on their roof does not exceed 1 meter (except for the transportation of
bicycles reinforced with special devices) and the length does not exceed the dimensions of the
car by 0.5 meters;
Trucks, in all cases, with some exceptions specified in the Traffic Rules, must move only on
the right carriageway;
It is prohibited to stop vehicles at turning points and within 30 meters of them or beyond them;
Cyclists traveling on the carriageway of the road without a bicycle lane at night and in conditions
of insufficient visibility must wear a reflective vest or outerwear with reflective elements [1].
"Ensuring traffic safety on highways and city streets remains one of the main pressing problems.
An analysis of road accidents over the past decade shows that their average annual number does
not fall below 10-11 thousand, resulting in the deaths of two thousand citizens of our Republic
and the injury of 10-12 thousand people [1].
CONCLUSION
The increase in the number of passenger cars in the population, in general, the smoothness of
roads, the use of road signs, the operation of traffic lights, improving traffic on the roads, and
preventing road traffic accidents and various unfortunate incidents are becoming important
problems.
