Abstract

One of the basic safety requirements on roadways is the skid resistance. It plays very important role especially during wet and rainy conditions. It is a pavement surface characterization which describes interaction between vehicle wheel and road surface. Mainly insufficient skid resistance or its complete loss is a reason of slippery roads and therefore risk of traffic accidents rises. The article is concerned with examining varying values of skid resistance on selected long-time monitored road parts with different asphalt wearing courses in Slovakia.
