psychometric assessment tools designed to measure a driver’s degree of courage and psychological readiness for risky behaviour on the road. These tests are based on a set of psychological scales that identify risk-taking personality tendencies, propensity to speed, recklessness, illegal overtaking, or risky decisions without adequately assessing the potential consequences. The purpose of these scales is to understand individual differences between drivers in terms of their willingness to take risks behind the wheel. Some people are more risk-takers because of their emotional or personality traits, while others are more cautious and disciplined. The risk test focuses on a variety of factors, including impulsivity and quick reaction to sudden events, overconfidence, and the level of self-control and discipline in dangerous driving situations. It also takes into account the driver’s ability to assess risks and be aware of the potential consequences of their behaviour, which contributes to predicting the level of traffic violations or accidents. The practical application of these tests is to identify the drivers most prone to risky behavior, such as speeding, unauthorized overtaking, or ignoring traffic lights. The results are also being used to develop awareness and training programmes aimed at changing behaviours, encouraging safe driving and developing preventive strategies to reduce road accidents. In addition, these tests are important tools in traffic research to examine the relationship between personality traits and risky behaviors, enabling road services to develop traffic policies based on psychological and behavioral data to improve road safety.
