Sažetak
Ergonomic construction structure of road design is of extreme importance for the safety of road traffic, especially in rural areas, where construction design requirements have to be in line with traditional road routes. Because of that and the particularities of unclassified roads and so called dirt roads, that often intersect important traffic routs, the problem of ergonomic safety is even more prominent. The scope of this paper will include the analysis of ergonomic visibility of an incoming motorcycle by a driver entering the main traffic route from an unclassified road. The motorcycle has been chosen for this study because of its extremely slim frontal silhouette and generally higher speed than the speed limit. We will present the visibility zones and driver eye sight zones, and establish the technical – design and biological – anthropometric limitations of vehicles and drivers with an aim of increasing the road traffic safety.
