The possibilities of use of modern intelligent transport system (ITS) in traffic safety improvements can be divided into systems related to infrastructure (roads, bridges, tunnels), systems related to vehicles, and systems based on cooperation. Cooperative systems in transport provide great possibilities. The main characteristics of a cooperative approach are: considering the driver, vehicle, infrastructure and other road users as a unique system; considering operational and management needs of the entire system; integrated approach to safety of traffic and all participants; and applying a technology in a coherent manner in order to support overall integration of system parts. This chapter describes examples of the cooperative approach application in urban traffic: cooperative ramp metering, incident management in urban areas and public transport cooperative priorities. The European Union has recently invested significant effort to prevent duplication of activities, not only within the EU, but worldwide (USA, Japan, China).
