INFLUENCE OF EXTERNAL LIGHTING POLLUTION BY THE CHEMICAL DEICING MATERIALS ON TRAFFIC SAFETY OF THE MOTOR VEHICLES

Introduction. Road transport remains the most dangerous form of transportation in our time. On the roads of our country about 25 thousand people are killed per year, are injured and maimed more than 250 000 people per year. In fact, every third traffic accident happens in the night time. Therefore,...
