Sažetak
Use of seat belts is one of the most effective ways to reduce the number of fatalities and injuries in road accidents. Road traffic safety campaigns are one of the ways to influence the level of seat belt usage. In this regard, the question is: how can we affect the percentage of use of seat belts while driving and what is the impact of the campaign on the usage of seat belts? The survey, which was conducted in Banja Luka, attempted to answer the aforementioned questions. The experimental method used during the research was conducted by recording the use of seat belts before, during and after the launch of the campaign in road safety, and surveying the attitudes of road users by questionnaire alongside with the campaign. By recording the level of use of the seat belt before the campaign, we observed a very low level of use. During and after the campaign, there is an increase of seat belts usage, suggesting that well designed campaign in road safety which includes all stakeholders in charge, responsible and concerned for the safety of participants, can yield positive results.
