Risk analysis is the process where you identify hazards or consequences, identify the risks of those hazards or consequences, the volume, evaluate if you can live with that volume, that risk or not, identify eliminating and minimizing control measures, and then over time you monitor and review and probably adapt your measures.
In order to minimise the risks regarding our roads, we must analyse what the risk entails exactly and who it might affect. Risk assessment is the process where you:
– identify hazards or consequences
– identify those at risk
– evaluate the risk
– eliminate or minimise the risk by introducing control measure
