When traveling, passengers hope to reach their destination without incident. This is most often the case, since each mode of transport has a unit responsible for the safety of its customers.

Step 1
To comply with transport safety, it is necessary to create a set of certain measures, which should be aimed at reducing the possibility of the appearance of factors that threaten the life and health of passengers. In addition, it is important to prevent damage to cargo, rolling stock and facilities of the transportation unit.
Step 2
Basically, the set of measures taken to ensure safety is universal for many types of transport. In particular, it is a mandatory rule for the rolling stock to undergo a technical inspection. Passenger transport operating inside cities (bus, trolleybus, tram, metro) is inspected at least once a day. Aircraft are inspected after each flight, and rail transport at each major station during movement and at points of turnover. Based on the results of the inspection, the technical team decides whether the vehicle needs maintenance or not.
Step 3
Special control is carried out over the state of the infrastructure. In railway transport, in particular, when the rail is heavily worn, a speed limit is introduced or so-called "windows" are created, during which repair and restoration trains are engaged in replacing rails and sleepers. The worst infrastructure is developed in motor transport, since the quality of the road surface on many federal highways leaves much to be desired.
Step 4
Transport companies often organize special psychological trainings for their employees in order to teach them how to behave in emergency situations. The lives of hundreds of passengers depend on the actions of the employees of the carrier company, so much attention is paid to this.
Step 5
In connection with the increased number of terrorist attacks on transport, metal detectors were installed at all airports and railway stations and the number of police patrol squads was increased. In addition, special units are being created, the main function of which is to identify in the general passenger traffic people who are potentially dangerous to others.
