Original Abstract

Public transport is an important part of the daily life of people living in large cities. Ensuring that passengers are transported comfortably and safely is one of the main tasks of transport companies. Transportation in cities is provided by various means of transport. Critical situations may occur in transport and knowledge of the effect of vehicle’s longitudinal and lateral acceleration on passengers is necessary for subsequent assessment. In the city of Brno (Czech Republic), where the research was conducted, passenger transport is provided by city buses, trolleybuses and trams. The first set of measurements deals with the analysis of trolleybus and tram deceleration and its effect on standing passengers during normal operation and test runs. The second set of measurements focused on determining the limit of comfortable and safe driving for a seated and standing passenger during normal operation on tram, trolleybus and bus lines in Brno.
