The pre-hospital transport of victims of road accidents in Morocco by basic ambulances concerns the majority of the population of victims requiring urgent care. It also constitutes the common service that benefits the entire population of victims, in terms of pre-hospital care. The objective of this contribution is to develop a model for calculating the costs of pre-hospital transport of road accident victims using Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing (TDABC). This model could be effective in better understanding how consumption occurs and how resources are administered and distributed within the pre-hospital care service portfolio. The qualitative research approach that we have adopted in the context of this study has enabled us to map and identify all the activities and tasks carried out in the process of pre-hospital transport of road accident victims. The model obtained is flexible enough to adapt to the various situations of pre-hospital transport of road accident victims by basic ambulances. The application of this model in the Moroccan context, delimited in a well-defined round trip (civil protection - accident site - hospital - civil protection) demonstrates that the said model is valid for cost calculation. The calculations made (217.47 MAD, 224.31 MAD, 225.45 MAD and 226.59 MAD) allow us to identify the possible cases of victims transported by basic ambulance. However, the TDABC, applied to the pre-hospital transport of road accident victims, has some limitations, in particular the estimation of time which is the main key to the allocation of the consumed resources. The results show that the TDABC promotes a better knowledge of all the processes related to the pre-hospital transport service. It allows making visible the value of the costs of the victims of road accidents in the selected patient population. Indeed, when the model is used in the set of routes (black points), decision makers are able to see, on the one hand, the variation of costs between similar pre-hospital transport services and different routes for the same transport services and, on the other hand, the value of the costs of each category of road accident victims' population.

Road safety conditions in Poland and five European Union countries bigger than Poland were described with the use of evaluation indexes usually applied in such studies. Values of these indexes were calculated for the period of 2002-2008, i.e. for a seven-year period. Thanks to this, they show quite stable direction of changes. Thus, they may be used to make predictions and to indicate actions aimed to improve road safety in next years.

Stan bezpieczeństwa ruchu drogowego w Polsce i w pięciu większych od Polski krajach Unii Europejskiej scharakteryzowano wykorzystując wskaźniki powszechnie wykorzystywane w tego typu opracowaniach. Wartości wskaźników zostały obliczone za lata 2002-2008, tzn. za okres siedmioletni. Dzięki temu pokazują one dość stabilny kierunek zmian. Mogą być więc wykorzystane do tworzenia prognozy i wskazywania działań na rzecz poprawy stanu bezpieczeństwa ruchu drogowego w następnych latach.

The national road No. 7 is one of the most important and most often used national roads over the area of the Mazovia province. During last years this road was modemized and reconstructed many times. The paper presents infrastructure changes and changes of the main evaluation indexes describing road safety conditions calculated for individual sections of the national road No. 7 in the Mazovia province in the period of last eight years.

Droga nr 7 jest jedną z najważniejszych i najczęściej wykorzystywanych dróg krajowych na obszarze województwa mazowieckiego. Droga ta w ostatnich latach przechodziła liczne przebudowy i modernizacje. Artykuł przedstawia zmiany infrastruktury oraz zmiany głównych wskaźników opisujących stan bezpieczeństwa ruchu drogowego, zachodzące na poszczególnych odcinkach drogi nr 7 na Mazowszu w ostatnich ośmiu latach.
