We conduct accredited assessments of harmful substance concentrations in the outside atmosphere (pollutant emission), traffic noise measuring and eco-toxicological tests. We measure the concentration of harmful substances in the atmosphere, as listed in Act No 201/2012 Coll., authorized by the Ministry of the Environment.

Laboratoř provádí akreditované zkoušení optických vlastností v oblasti svislých dopravních značek a vodorovného dopravního značení, a také neakreditované zkoušení drsnosti/protismykových vlastností povrchu vozovky a vodorovného dopravního značení.

The laboratory deals with detailed inspection of vehicles after an accident. It mainly focuses the finding of potential technical failures that might have influenced the causes or effects of the accident.

The psychological laboratory helps with the traffic psychology diagnostics of drivers, including professional drivers. It takes place on a computer, and when that part is over, an interview with a traffic psychologist follows. For the testing, we use the Vienna test system, which belongs to the most advanced diagnostic tools in Czechia.
