The importance of public transport in the life of every individual is indisputable, and even more in the social and economic development.At the beginning of the third millennium, it is impossible to imagine conducting basic and economic activities without the transport of goods and passengers, i.e. without the use of cars and other modern means of transport. However, the expansion of road transport is accompanied by a large number of casualties and significant material damage. And so incurred a new and almost unsolvable problem of modern times, as well as requirements to the attainment of modern technical achievements in traffic and that its rapid running, while the number of accidents and victims reduced to the lowest possible level.
