This study investigates recognition and detection abilities of nighttime pedestrians by observers and using a photographic method. The examination of the visibility of nighttime pedestrians is done and afterwards evaluated by two methods. In the first method observers were asked to detect a pedestrian from a slowly moving vehicle. In each attempt, detection distance was recorded. From the place of detection, a digital photography was taken from the still vehicle. Analysis of the digital photography in computer graphic software is the keystone of the second method. The article also shows potential effect of retroreflector positioning on recognition of nighttime pedestrians.

The paper deals with the problem scope of ethanol (as biologically decomposable compound) adding into petrol and diesel fuel on the final lubricity of motor fuels. It analyses the subject of tribology and automobile fuels in connection with modern technologies in construction of automobile engines. The mentioned properties and characteristics were measured by commonly used laboratory method on Plint TE 82 (PLINT & PARTNERS LTD). Measured data show, that diesel fuel with ethanol has better lubricity parameters and lubricity persists longer, than in case of petrol fuel with ethanol. One problem occurred, when diesel fuel was mixed with ethanol, which contained more then 0,5 % of water. This problem was solved by eliminating of the water from ethanol, eventually the suitable solubility additive is recommended.
