CDI-2: TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION
TRANSPORTATION
- is an act or process of conveying from one place to another
- from the Latin word “Terans” meaning across or and move and “Portare” means to carry
VARIOUS ANCIENT MODES OF TRANSPORATATION
A. MANPOWER
B. ANIMAL POWER
C. WIND POWER
ROADS AND VEHICLES HISTORY
WHEEL
- was invented probably in Western Asia
- one of man’s great inventions
THE ROMANS
- were the major road builders in the ancient world
- Roman road networks reached a total of about 50,000 miles (80, 000 km)
CANALS
- a body of water used to be channel of sea transportation
- the first canal was constructed by Engr. James Brindley
RAILWAYS
- channel of transportation wherein a parallel line of irons were used as roads
- the first railroad is the Stockton and Darlington line (1925)
TRAFFIC
- it refers to the movement of persons, goods, or vehicles, either powered by combustion
system or animal drawn vehicle, from one place to another for the purpose of safe travel
- originated from Greco-Roman word Trafico and Greek word Traffiga, origin of which is
not known
THE 5’Es OF TRAFFIC
1. ENFORCEMENT
- the action taken by the police, such as arresting, issuing traffic citation ticket and providing
warning to the erring driver for the purpose of deterring and discouraging and or preventing such
violation
2. EDUCATION
- the process of giving training and practice in the actual application of traffic safety knowledge
3. ENGINEERING
- the science of measuring traffic and travel, the study of basic laws relative to the traffic law and
generation; the application of these knowledge to the professional practice of planning, deciding,
and operating traffic system to achieve safe and efficient transportation of persons and goods
4. TRAFFIC ECOLOGY/ ENVIRONMENT
- the study of potentially disastrous population explosion, changes in urban environment due to the
scale and density of new urban concentration and new activities carried out, air pollution, water
pollution and crowding, transport congestion which result therein
5. TRAFFIC ECONOMY
- deals with the benefits and adverse effects of traffic to our economy
MANAGEMENT
- it is an executive function such as planning, organizing, Directing and supervising, coordinating
operating recording and budgeting traffic affairs
AGENCIES INVOLVED IN THE ENFORCEMENT OF TRAFFIC

- created under RA. 7924 and sets policies concerning traffic in Metro Manila, coordinates and
regulates implementation of program related to traffic
Congress and Local Council
- the branch of government primarily tasked to create laws for the welfare of the public
Judiciary
- the branch of government that interprets the law through adjudication of cases
Traffic Management Group (TMG)
- the basis service of the PNP tasked to direct and control traffic, perform accident investigation,
enforce the laws and issue citations.
AGENCIES RESPONSIBLE FOR TRAFFIC ENGINEERING
Department of Public Works and Highways
- has responsibility of determining traffic flow planning approval of program and budget finding of
construction and maintenance of road and instrument
Local Public Works and Engineering Offices
- local government units and instrumentalities that have the same function as the DPWH
- perform such powers within their territorial boundary
AGENCIES INVOLVED IN TRAFFIC EDUCATION
Schools
Elementary
- tasked to educate children to obey traffic rules through their programmed curricula
Secondary
- tasked to educate students in obeying tha traffic rules by imposing school policies intended for
the welfare of the students
Higher Education
- they offer subjects on driving and traffic safety course or any allied subjects
TRAFFIC EDUCATION
- is priceless gem in the entire scale of social order of the road
- is the process of inculcating to an individual the knowledge, skill, responsibilities and values to
become a fully developed person
- the key to smooth traffic flow is discipline and to acquire discipline people must be educated
PURPOSE OF DRIVER EDUCATION
1) To Instill awareness of one's legal and moral responsibilities in traffic; and
2) To teach abilities required for one to be eligible for a driver’s license.
SAFETY CAMPAIGN
- the aim of this campaign is to make road users behave properly
- focuses on public information attitudes; this is characterized as road propaganda
BIORHYTHM
- the theory asserting that man exhibit constant variation of energy and mood states
