Adherence to the Principle of Limited Trust as a Guarantee to Ensure Road Safety

The purpose of the study is to analyze the principle of limited trust as a guarantee of ensuring road safety in the light of current legal solutions. The analyzed principle is a rule of appropriate behavior of the driver of a vehicle in situations involving the traffic of pedestrians, and provides a normative basis for acting in confidence to other traffic participants. It should be emphasized that its observance guarantees the safety of pedestrians, while its violation poses a serious threat. It is also worth noting that the driver of a vehicle is not obliged to anticipate all unusual and dangerous behavior towards other traffic participants, as this would result in constant obstruction and paralysis of traffic flow.
