Abstract(s)
Os números da sinistralidade pedonal portuguesa têm vindo a diminuir nos últimos anos,
apresentando uma diminuição de 66,5% face ao período de 1999 a 2009. No entanto, esses
valores são igualmente preocupantes no contexto europeu, uma vez que Portugal se
encontra no décimo sexto lugar na relação entre o número de peões mortos e o número
total de vítimas mortais.
Deste modo, numa fase inicial foram apresentados os grupos e os factores de risco que
apresentam uma maior preponderância para a ocorrência de atropelamentos.
Posteriormente, foi analisada a sinistralidade pedonal em Lisboa de 2007 a 2009, tendo
como alicerce a base de dados ANSR. E por último, foram apresentadas algumas medidas
para corrigir atitudes e comportamentos dos condutores e dos peões, de forma a diminuir
este flagelo pedonal, designadamente na vertente da fiscalização e actuação das forças
policiais.
Em suma, o principal objectivo deste trabalho é a sensibilização dos condutores e dos
peões sobre a realidade desta sinistralidade, pois os números apresentados podem vir a ser
positivamente alterados se todos os utentes do sistema rodoviário tiverem consciência dos
seus actos.
A reduction in the number of pedestrian accidents has occurred in recent years, diminishing by 66.5% between the periods of 1999 to 2009. Nonetheless, these values are equally worrisome within the european context, since Portugal ranks 16th in relation to the number of pedestrian deaths to the total number of death victims. As such, an initial report outlined the groups and risk factors that pose the greatest predominance in run over occurrences. Subsequently, pedestrian accidents within Lisbon were investigated between 2007 to 2009, having as a basis the facts supplied by ANSR. Lastly, some corrective measures were presented in order to change the attitudes and behaviours of both drivers and pedestrians in an attempt to reduce this pedestrian scourge, particularly in the aspect of monitoring and actions taken by the police force. In short, the main objective of this work is to bring awareness to drivers and pedestrians of the reality of these accidents, and as such the current statistics may be altered if all users of the road become cognizant of their actions.
