INTRODUCTION
Baseline Road traffic safety strategy in Bosnia and Herzegovina (2008th-2013th) were conducted on the proposal of the Federal Ministry of the internal affairs, which was accepted by the Government of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and arising from the need to professionally investigate and determine the conditions and factors encouraging the place and role of the safety of road transport of Bosnia and Herzegovina, actually the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Road traffic in Bosnia and Herzegovina is regulated at the state and entity levels, and with the adoption of a state law on traffic safety on roads in Bosnia and Herzegovina, this segment of traffic needs to be defined and implemented at the national level is certainly supported entity institutions (Ministries of Transport, Ministry of internal Affairs, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Health, Directorate of roads / road, etc.).
The main objective of the subject and purpose of the starting points for the of road transport safety strategy in Bosnia and Herzegovina (2008th-2013th) was, using appropriate research methods, to provide the necessary quantitative and qualitative identification of a complex system of road transport safety.Decisive reason for this approach is the fact that the traffic safety system in Bosnia and Herzegovina, pending state legislation and writing strategies at the entity level, in terms of programming and development base unexplored in the current environment and as such is not fully determined.

WHY STRATEGY AND WHY THE POLICE IN ROAD SAFETY
In addition, very aware of the difficult situation, constantly growing number of deaths, especially among young people, on the one hand, and the fact that the traffic safety under the jurisdiction of cantons which (geographically limited, with partial and time-limited access) are not able to achieve individually significant results the entire territory of Federation of BiH, the Federal Ministry of Internal Affairs has decided to launch an initiative to elaborate a strategic document to the application of appropriate research methods, to provide the necessary quantitative and qualitative identification of the complex system of road transport safety, and to propose measures that will enable the resolution of a number of causes of traffic accidents [1].
For this reason, the Federal Ministry of Internal Affairs has established a commission made up of reputable experts in the traffic safety and representatives of the Ministries of Internal Affairs, which is in record time, at the end of January 2008 completed this document, which was adopted by the Government of the Federation at its session in 28th February 2008.
In addition, since the establishment of the Commission in July 2007, the one of the main motives of creation such conceived research document with clearly defined objectives and measures, was that the institutions at the level of Bosnia and Herzegovina, offer a starting point for the development and implementation of the Action plan of Bosnia and Herzegovina, whose implementation would achieve the intended goals.For this reason, at the initiative of FMI, the Government of the Federation submitted a document Baseline of road transport safety strategy 2008-2013 to the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
But in the absence of any activity at the state level and proceeding from the fact that the official statistics showed a constant tendency to increase the number of killed and seriously injured in traffic on the one hand, and the goals set in the strategy document and the Action Plan by the Minister of Internal Affairs has formed a team of experts for the realization of these operations starting work 5.5 2008 year, which consisted of seven members, in April 2012 was supplemented with 6 members, the Minister's decision of the Federal Ministry of the internal affairs.
For the realization of these operations, it was necessary to bring the Action Plan at the level of the Federal Ministry of the internal affairs , and action plans cantonal ministries of Internal Affairs, then the action plans of the federal ministry of transport and communications, health and education, which was conducted during 2008 year.
In the first half of the 2008 was signed the Action Plan to implementation of the document Baseline of road transport safety strategy 2008-2013 by the Federal and all 10 of Cantonal Ministers of Internal Affairs and the Director of the Federal Police Administration and all 10 police commissioners.Signing of this document, we began the implementation of the project by the police structures that are in the period of the implementation of this document showed that strategically designed and coordinated the work on the field so they can achieve and exceed expected results [2].Also, it was necessary to bring an Instruction on Mutual Information between the Federal and Cantonal Ministries of Interior, which is also done and signed by all of the Cantonal Ministers of 2008 year.This directive is precisely defined manner and content of communication between of the Federal Ministry of the internal affairs police and Cantonal Ministries of Interior in the field of traffic safety.
During the five years of work, instruction is again supplemented and showed all their necessity and expediency of its adoption for accurate and timely information Cantonal Ministry of police on the state of traffic safety, in order to analyze trends in this area.
The tasks set out in the Strategy and Action Plan also demanded the establishment of a central database in the Federal Ministry of Internal Affairs for monitoring, statistical processing, analyzing and making recommendations to the competent entities for traffic safety.This database has been established in cooperation with the Directorate of motorways of Federation BiH and with the expert help of Faculty of Traffic and Communication in Sarajevo.
On the basis of the above, it was established the legal and action framework for the operations of the Expert Team and other subjects as co-holder of this project.
In this manner, through one year of preparation and research platform of creating a strategic document, five years of implementation of the Action Plan, using all the capacity of local institutions, the work of the Expert Team FMI and excellent cooperation and the work of the Federal and Cantonal Ministries of Internal Affairs, has aproved to be very successful and effective, which led to the realization of most of the objectives set.We want to save more lives and engage in the UN Decade (decade) security from 2011 to 2020, which the United Nations has committed all UN member states to "fight" to increase the level of traffic safety.
