Open Access statement

The Traffic Safety Research (TSR) journal complies with the 'Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities’.

According to the declaration, ‘The author(s) and right holder(s) ... grant to all users a free, irrevocable, worldwide, right of access to, and a licence to copy, use, distribute, transmit and display the work publicly and to make and distribute derivative works, in any digital medium for any responsible purpose, subject to proper attribution of authorship...’.

Currently, the TSR journal implements the Platinum Open Access model, meaning that there is neither processing fee for the authors nor access fee for the journal readers to be paid.
