Despite an improvement in worldwide numbers, road traffic crashes still cause social, psychological, and financial damage and cost most countries 3% of their gross domestic product. However, none of the current commercial or open-source navigation systems contain spatial information about road traffic crash hot spots. By developing an algorithm that can adequately predict such spatial patterns, we can bridge these still existing gaps in road traffic safety. To that end, geographically weighted regression and regression tree models were fitted with five uncorrelated (environmental and socioeconomic) road traffic crash predictor variables. Significant regional differences in adverse weather conditions were identified; Slovenia lies at the conjunction of different climatic zones characterized by differences in weather phenomena, which further modify traffic safety. Thus, more attention to speed limits, safety distance, and other vehicles entering and leaving the system could be expected. In order to further improve road safety and better implement globally sustainable development goals, studies with applicative solutions are urgently needed. Modern vehicle-to-vehicle communication technologies could soon support drivers with real-time traffic data and thus potentially prevent road network crashes.
V prispevku je predstavljeno besedje v pridigah Jožefa Horvata (r. 31. 8. 1880, u. 1. 5. 1932), manj znanega duhovnika, ki je odraščal in se šolal v madžarskem okolju, nato pa je živel in deloval v Prekmurju (od 1905 do 1912 je bil kaplan v Župniji Črenšovci, od 1912 do 1932 pa župnik v Martjancih). Jožef Horvat je bil po poreklu gradiščanski Hrvat iz Velike Narde. Njegovo odraščanje ob avstrijsko-ogrski meji s hrvaškim maternim jezikom izpričuje raba germanizmov in madžarizmov, uporabljal pa je tudi značilno panonsko besedje ter besedje romanskega in grškega izvora. V članku je med drugim opozorjeno na besedje zakritega prevzemanja. Pozornost je namenjena tudi sopomenskim nizom oz. besednim dvojnicam, s katerimi je Horvat bogatil prekmursko besedišče, ter njegovim novotvorjenkam oz. zanimivejšim obrazilom in tvorbenim rešitvam.
V članku preučujem uvajanje osrednjeslovenskega jezika v prekmurske katoliške pridige prve polovice 20. stoletja, ki so poleg publicistike in Mohorjevih knjig predstavljale most med vzhodno- in osrednjeslovensko knjižno normo ter prekmurskim Slovencem lajšale sprejemanje knjižne slovenščine. Zanima me, na katerih jezikovnih ravneh je bližanje slovenskemu knjižnemu jeziku potekalo najlažje in najbolj spontano in katere ravni so bile najmanj sprejemljive za novosti. To ugotavljam na podlagi analize pridig dveh avtorjev – martjanskega župnika Jožefa Horvata (1880–1932) in črenšovskega župnika Ferdinanda Hermana (1896–1966).
