Šeneklová, Zuzana ; Svoboda, Miroslav (advisor) ; Nikolovová, Pavla (referee)
The work analyzes the effect of roundabouts on safety of motorcyclists. Estimating the effect of the implementation of the model fixed effects, taking into account the fixed effects of year in which accidents are measured and fixed effects of the country in which the accident observed. The reference period is the period from 1997 to 2010 in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Spain, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Austria, Portugal, Sweden and the United Kingdom. It concludes that an increase in the number or intensity of roundabouts has a negative impact on the number of traffic fatalities among motorcycle riders. If cyclists do not have roundabouts effect on mortality, the effect on the accident rate is similar to the bikers, but smaller.
