Keywords:

This paper aims to answer the following question: is there a need for a specialized Public Prosecutor's Office for road safety?
For this purpose, I analyze the specialization of the Public Prosecutor's Office
introduced into our legal system by Act 24/2007.
Road safety is an important aspect of everyday life for all citizens. All efforts are not enough to combat this scourge, which involves an intolerable human and social cost, especially in a society such as ours with the scientific and technological development at
its disposal. Even in economic terms, the cost is high.
Likewise, we analyze different statistical data and questions about the present and
future of road safety.
