According to worldwide research, it has been shown that personality traits of drivers have a major impact on driver behaviour while driving, as well as their impact on higher levels of stress and fatigue while driving. More and more often, as a term in foreign literature and strategic documents, the notion of "stress free driving" appears, which points to the significance of this problem. It is important to note that there is a link between aggressive behaviour, stress, and fatigue, where fatigue and aggressive behaviour can affect a higher level of stress while driving. As in the world's research, we can recognize the importance of personality traits on behaviour while driving. A higher level of aggressive behaviour, stress, and fatigue while driving, can affect a greater number of conflict situations in the traffic, as well as the occurrence of traffic accidents. In accordance with the aim of this paper, which is to point out the importance of recognizing certain personality traits that more dominantly affect aggressive behaviour, stress, and fatigue. The research used a combination of two questionnaires, where the personality traits of the driver were examined by the DSSQ questionary (Dundee Stress State Questionnaire), while driver behaviour and the effect of fatigue and stress were investigated using the DBQ questionnaire (Driver Behaviour Questionnaire). As a general conclusion of this paper, it is possible to highlight the raising of people's awareness of the importance of personality traits on behaviour while driving, and the increased number of preventive measures for improving the knowledge, and attitudes of people on this area of traffic safety.
