Risk is a common phenomenon in daily life of natural and legal persons. It concerns all branches of the economy and relates to making decisions concerning the unknown future. There are various types of risk related to business operations and the majority of business entities take effort to protect themselves against its adverse effects.

Road transport is exposed to various types of risk which may lead to usually considerable damage and losses. This publication is aimed at presenting selected groups of risk factors occurring in the logistics process and at determining their influence on enterprise functioning. It is also supposed to emphasize the significant role of risk analysis in the transportation business.
