Abstract: In this article, an attempt is made to present the assumptions of safety culture in railway transport, analyze SPAD incidents occurring at Szybka Kolej Miejska sp. z o.o., and assess proactive measures aimed at minimizing the risk of railway incidents from the perspective of human factors. Considering the upward trend in SPAD (Signal Passed At Danger) incidents related to trains not stopping before a signal indicating “Stop” or in a designated stopping area, as well as their impact on the safety of the passenger transport process in terms of the serious consequences following their occurrence, it seems reasonable to analyze the causes of these incidents, to attempt to answer the question of whether the railway system is capable of drawing lessons from these situations, and to evaluate the effectiveness of the corrective actions being implemented.
