Actions related to the improvement of the safety of disabled road users have multiple levels and are burdened with problems related to the collection and proper analysis of road incidents. A meta-analysis of databases could provide a better understanding of the causes of these events and prevent them in the future. Currently, residual information on participants of road accidents can be found in the Accident and Collision Record System; the data are analyzed by the Polish Road Traffic Observatory and submitted to the International Road Traffic and Accident Database and the Community Road Accident Database. In connection with the above, an article was prepared containing a propaedeutic review of research materials to date, as well as domestic and foreign databases constituting the diagnostics of the research area. An international literature search was also conducted on accidents involving people with disabilities. The findings indicate the need to collect and expand information about disabled participants of road incidents, fill this gap in databases, and systematize them as the starting material for the development of remedial actions.
