A transport system for transporting workpieces includes a plurality of objects disposed along a path of travel and a driverless transport vehicle having a workpiece holder and a personal protection sensor such as a laser scanner. The sensor has a transmitter for generating detection radiation and a receiver adapted to receive detection radiation generated by the transmitter and reflected from persons or objects located in a monitoring area that is monitored by the detection radiation. A control device steers the transport vehicle along the travel path so that it does not collide with the objects and triggers a safety measure if the personal protection sensor has detected a person in the monitoring area. The objects support a coating or cladding that absorbs detection radiation impinging thereon or reflects it in such a direction that it cannot reach the receiver. As a result, the objects become invisible to the personal protection sensor and cannot trigger any safety measures.
